Live Your Truth Now

On the show this week, we have Becca Keaty, Chief Development Officer for Bunker Labs (also, serial marketing and events intrapreneur, retired Army National Guard veteran, mom of three boys, dog mom of two and wife of a First Responder in Chicago).

If you’re fundraising or looking to start, this is your episode! You’ll learn Becca’s proven fundraising strategies to generate multimillion-dollar operating budgets, how to position oneself for grant-winning success, leveraging the power of story in a pitch, and the importance of doing your “homework.”

• The importance of discovering potential funder “pain points” and solving for those issues
• The power of story in a grant application or fundraising pitch 
• Don’t be afraid of rejection when hunting down dollars 
• Treating funders like humans… and let them do the talking 
• Why it’s so important to stay true to yourself, especially as a leader
