Could 30 days help make you $50,000 for your cause and put more money in your pocket?
From Mazarine Treyz, founder of “Wild Woman Fundraising” and author of “The Wild Woman’s Guide to Fundraising”:
Hey there —
If you’ve read my book or blog, you know I’m all about helping your nonprofit get more money, bringing in multiple streams of income, and making the donor relationships that save you money too.
Depending on your situation, you can halve the time it takes you to do something, and more than double your return on your fundraising events. You can get your mailing printed for free, and spend that extra cash on a new website for your nonprofit instead.
I’ve been working with three incredible fundraising and nonprofit masterminds to bring all of our knowledge together to help you get $50,000 in 30 days.
Pamela Grow: Author of Simple Development Systems and 5 Days to Foundation Grants
Sandy Rees: Author of Secrets to Raising Money Online, Secrets to Winning Grants, Secrets to Winning Donors, Fundraising Buffet, and 7 Essential Steps to Raising Money by Mail
Desiree Adaway: 20 years of nonprofit experience, including senior level positions at Habitat for Humanity, Co-creator of Partnership Playbook with Pam Slim, Author of Escape from Cubicle Nation, including interviews with Guy Kawasaki, John Jantsch, and more!
And just in case you don’t know me,
Mazarine Treyz: Author of The Wild Woman’s Guide to Fundraising book and blog, 8 years of nonprofit experience, including co-founding a nonprofit and being everyone from Development Assistant to Development Associate to Development Director to Development and Nonprofit Management Consultant for local, national and international nonprofits.
I’m often amazed how many people don’t realize all of the little tips and tricks you can use to make tons of money for your nonprofit, and save money on your fundraising costs too.
But as I’m sure you’ve heard before, there’s only so many hours in a day. Even with productivity tips, it’s hard to see how you could work harder and make more. Which is why we’re going to teach you how to work less and make more.
We created our new course – 50K in 30 Days – to help you do just that, and more. It gives you an actionable, step-by-step plan you can use for practically any situation to cut your fundraising costs by as much as hundreds of dollars every month—painlessly, AND use tactics to be more efficient in your nonprofit fundraising office, and get multiple streams of income flowing right in the door with less work. Everything from how to get more sponsorships to how to partner more effectively with other nonprofits. Everything from how to get more money in the mail, right NOW, to making money with online fundraising.
Plus you get scripts and ebooks you can use to segment your donors, and learn how to get people closer to a yes to get that sponsorship and build that relationship.
By following this simple action plan, you can make thousands more for your nonprofit in both what you raise and what you save.
This course is a week by week action plan to help you make $50,000 in 30 Days.
So why doesn’t everyone do this?
Most people don’t realize they can. But think about this: what if your sister nonprofit is using our grant techniques and getting thousands more in grants every month?
But there’s no reason why you can’t be the one who’s getting grants, appeals, and unrestricted funds that can make your cause succeed.
“OK, sounds good…but I have no time!”
I truly believe the information and scripts you get in “50K in 30 Days” can help anyone be exponentially more successful in fundraising, with very little effort.
But I know what you may be thinking now: Me? Devote MORE time to fundraising? Can’t I just bury my head under the covers and never come out again?
Look, some people love the thrill of planning an event. They salivate at the idea of writing a killer appeal letter, having lunch with a major donor, mailing a grant proposal, and finishing off the day with the young professionals mixer.
But some of us find fundraising downright intimidating, scary, and something to be avoided at all costs.
This could be due to being a victim of bad experience. Perhaps you tried to do too much and ended up doing every fundraising task badly. Maybe you asked for a donation and had donors flat out turn you down.
Whatever your situation, 50K in 30 Days shows you simple strategies that can get you multiple streams of income for your cause—even if you’ve been told that fundraising is not your forte.
Those who ask (the right way) shall receive…
Fundraising doesn’t have to be ugly. It doesn’t have to take 6 months to plan an event. It doesn’t have to take 7 weeks to get an appeal out. It can be much easier.
In fact, following the steps and worksheets in “50K in 30 Days” can actually improve your relationship with your donors over the short and long term.
That’s because no matter what the outcome, you’ll feel empowered. Your board and donors will see you in a new light, and do things to help you succeed. If you’re an accidental fundraiser, like me, you will feel like the holes in your knowledge have started to be filled.
Now, you could try to do this on your own. But why not use the thoroughly tested strategies and scripts we provide in 50K in 30 Days?
You’ll also become a master at the different types of donor personalities. You can figure out exactly what makes your donor tick, what’s important to him or her, and what you have to offer…so you can hit a “home run” without suffering through all build-up and no ask.
Everything you need for every situation under the sun
I realize everyone’s situation is different. Perhaps you’ve never done an event before, but you’re about to start your first one. Maybe you recently did your fifth appeal letter but you didn’t make a lot of money on it, and barely cleared your printing costs. Or maybe you’ve been fundraising for ten years and feel like you know everything there is to know. (But with the field of online fundraising and social media relationship building, don’t we always have new things to learn?)
That’s why we packed 50K in 30 Days with proven strategies for every possible situation under the sun. It gives you everything you need to create multiple streams of income for your nonprofit in four short weeks.
But that’s not all. You see, every nonprofit is different, too. You’ve got…
- Small rural startup nonprofits with budgets under $50K.
- Large urban nonprofits with budgets over $1M.
- Mid-sized nonprofits that have budgets in the $200,000 range.
- Consultant fundraisers who could work with many kinds of nonprofits.
And they ALL have different needs.
50K in 30 Days shows you how to figure out these needs no matter what kind of nonprofit you have. Once you understand what they are, you’ll be able to tailor your fundraising strategies accordingly and achieve your fundraising goals.

So, you might be wondering, can 50K in 30 Days work for me? We don’t want everyone to get it—just the right people.
This course is definitely for you if…
- You want to learn how to get the sponsors banging down your door.
- You are barely breaking even with your appeals, and are sick of throwing money out the window.
- You’re paying for your grant research software.
- You want to partner with other nonprofits but don’t know how to start.
- Your development plan is over 10 pages long and no one ever reads it.
- You are ready to consider earned income streams for your nonprofit.
- You’re considering a new annual event, but are not sure how to negotiate with the sponsors or vendors.
- You’ve been dropped into a new position and don’t know what to do first.
- You’re looking for new ways to make lots more money for your cause.
- You’re an executive director who also has to be the development director.
If any of these situations sound like you, then you can skip the next part. On the other hand, if you’re not sure, check out this list to make sure this course is right for you.
This course may not be for you if…
- You happen to love every routine you have in your development office. (Then again, some of these strategies and scripts may help you get even more long-term sponsorships.)
- You’re having trouble keeping your head above water with your current responsibilities (Face it, you’re NOT going to be ready to start new initiatives.)
One of the most profitable skills you’ll ever master
No one teaches you fundraising and relationship-building in college. It’s one of those skills most of us gain from the university of experience.
But thanks to 50K in 30 Days, gaining and mastering new fundraising skills will be a breeze. And putting our techniques into action will gain you some of the easiest money you’ve ever raised.
It’s never too early to start planning, either. Maybe you recently did a strategic plan, but still need to do a more fleshed out development plan. Or maybe you’re starting to think about a new capital campaign.
But you may be surprised to learn that development professionals tend to stay in a job for only 18 to 24 months.
That’s why it makes sense to hone your skills now for that next position. Plus, you can paint yourself as the ideal candidate, so you’ll be in a stronger position to negotiate your salary later.
So let me ask you, could a month put $50K in your nonprofit bank account?
Could it make it much easier for you to set money aside in a rainy day fund…fund the programs that desperately need help…or simply cover your nonprofit’s monthly payroll without worrying so much?
You’ll never know until you try.
And we want to make it as easy as possible for you to do so.
We know we’re probably charging much less than we should for 50K in 30 Days. After all, you’ll probably get back at least TEN times the cost of this course in just the first 3 months or less.
But we’re also throwing in five special bonus gifts—just to give you that little bit of extra motivation to take the next step…
