For those of you who have been reading this blog for a while, you will remember one of our most frequent guest authors Amy Eisenstein.

Amy runs Tripoint Fundraising and has a wealth of great advice to share on this topic.

In the past, she has given us excellent articles such as:

5 Ways to Make Sure Board Members Aren’t Bored

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Nonprofit Leadership

How to Hire a Fantastic Development Director

Amy has also written a very useful ebook called “50 Asks in 50 Weeks”, which I highly suggest you check out.

Today, I’d like to share with you a seven minute video of a presentation Amy made about her very first fundraising experience. There is some great free advice that will inspire you to emulate her results.

After having read a lot of Amy’s writing myself, it was great to actually hear her present. I’m sure you will get a lot out of this video, and I hope you will explore her website at greater length!

Here’s Amy’s video:
