That feeling\u2026<\/p>\n

It sets in just as Thanksgiving weekend comes to a close and you wake from the tryptophan haze. It\u2019s something like panic. Actually it’s A LOT like panic.<\/p>\n

You are a nonprofit leader \u2013 paid or unpaid. Maybe the chair of the development committee or the lone paid development staff member. And here\u2019s what you know: most nonprofits see 30% of their revenue come in the door in the last month\u00a0of the calendar year and 10% of THAT in the 48 hours of the year.<\/p>\n

Have you planted sufficient seeds? Will you hit your year end numbers? Are you ready? Rather than play the game I call \u201cCoulda Woulda Shoulda,\u201d in this episode, Seth Rosen and I will offer you tips, tricks, and practical advice so you can play the new game I am calling \u201cCan, Will, GOTTA!\u201d<\/p>\n

About Seth Rosen<\/h2>\n

My guest today is not really a guest. He\u2019s a friend and also a colleague in my firm and I\u2019m so glad to have him back for the 3rd<\/sup> time on the podcast.<\/p>\n

Seth happens to be the happiest nonprofit consultant you will ever meet. He loves raising money, he is smart as hell, and he is addicted to the Real Housewives franchise.<\/p>\n

This last little fact is something I do not hold against him.<\/p>\n

In addition to blogging monthly<\/a>, Seth has an exemplary career as a fundraising executive, most recently at Gay Men\u2019s Health Crisis, the world\u2019s first and largest AIDS services organization \u2013 with a $30 million budget. His impressive resume includes work in education and global philanthropy through Malaria No More. His passion was the law and he has a law degree but he learned after practicing law for a bit that he had a love and a gift for raising money.<\/p>\n

Today he shares this gift with us.<\/p>\n
