Six Circles’ Post

✨ 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 #𝗚𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 ✨ This year, I’ve had the privilege of helping incredible nonprofit organizations raise vital funds through live events. One event alone raised over $17,000,000—a powerful reminder of how well-planned events can drive meaningful change. I’ve worked with clients whose event budgets range from $50,000 to $1MM plus and no matter the scale or size, the goal is always the same: to create meaningful experiences that inspire connection, generosity, and impact. Now, more than ever, so many people need help, and the power of a thoughtfully executed event can make a world of difference. Event planning is about more than logistics; it’s about transforming moments into memories and inspiring action. Whether you’re hosting a fundraiser, a gala, or a community gathering, your event has the potential to uplift lives and spark hope. As we celebrate #GivingTuesday, let’s take a moment to give back. Support a cause close to your heart today and know that every act of kindness matters. And if you’re a nonprofit looking to elevate your events and maximize your impact, the Event Plan Like a Rock Star manual is here to guide you. With 25+ years of expertise, this guide offers strategies to: • Define your event’s purpose and align it with your mission. • Engage your audience with creative lighting, music, and design. • Plan every detail to inspire generosity and achieve your goals.

I’m looking for some recommendations or advice… even just perspective. It’s abit of a long post but it’s for charity, so please read if you can. We have launched a couple of events now and they have been really successful. We had a great time the people that have taken part of had a great time and it’s been valuable for building the community and helping businesses to grow inside the Tameside area. The reason I mentioned this, and this is where I need advice, I had the idea of turning this into a regular thing. A networking event where the focus is on the community and business growth inside there local area. We would take a charity inside that area that is acting as a pillar for the community, create the event and invite people to attend for free (donation of what you think it’s worth to go to the charity of the event). Ideally we would be focusing on C suite, SLTs and business owners as an attendees. Offer some sponsored slots for people to talk, in which the money raised will go completely to the charity. We wouldn’t take a penny. This would all be for the charity. We are good at running events and this is our way of giving back to them and the community. I don’t know if this will work or if it’s something that already been done but I’d love to get some feedback from my network to see what they think. You all have an incredible wealth of experience in terms of being networking events and even running events. Thanks in advance.

Unpopular opinion alert 🚨 It's time to rethink your annual gala. The hard truth is that these large scale events are often transactional in nature, and they’re not getting you the long-term, mission investment that you’re after. Revamping your event strategy will help drive more engagement, deepen relationships, and take the burden off your team.

Are fundraising events really the best way to raise money? Many organizations believe that hosting an event is the surest way to bring in funds. But here’s the truth: events don’t raise money—people do. If you’ve ever been part of planning a fundraising event, you know the pressure and uncertainty that come with it. You plan meticulously, but despite your best efforts, ticket sales fall short, key players cancel last minute, and unexpected expenses eat into your profits. It can leave you wondering if all the stress and effort were even worth it. Imagine going through all this, only to end up with less money raised than expected. The disappointment is real, and the impact on your mission can be significant. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Instead of relying solely on events, focus on what truly drives donations—personal connections. Start by identifying who will sell the tickets and who their buyers will be. Develop those relationships, one-on-one, eyeball-to-eyeball. It’s not as flashy as a big event, but it’s often far more effective. Now, picture this: what if you could secure the funds you need without the stress of a major event? By prioritizing personal relationships over extravagant gatherings, you can raise more money with less effort, ensuring that every dollar goes further for your cause or project. If you’re ready to explore a more effective approach to fundraising, let’s connect. I’m here to help you build a strategy that focuses on what really works—people, not events. Schedule a call with me today, and let’s discuss how we can make your fundraising efforts more impactful. https://lnkd.in/gaus8gPY https://lnkd.in/gf4b4U_A
