Stop Chasing Revenue. Learn to ATTRACT it Instead.

Is your social impact brand attracting enough revenue to power your mission and build a healthy, sustainable organization? Or do you feel like you’re constantly chasing donors and customers just to keep the lights on?

Chances are, the second scenario hits closer to home. If so, you’re not alone. Because the social impact sector has a revenue problem. And it’s not a small one.

We’re not just talking about donor retention, or shifting consumer behaviors, or downward trends in giving and support for social impact causes either. We’re talking about deeply rooted cultural beliefs and narratives that have shaped our entire sector. And that many of us have just learned to accept as inevitable.

In today’s episode, we cover:

• The cultural beliefs and narratives that have created unhealthy and unsustainable norms that are holding our sector back
• Why so many social impact organizations struggle to attract, grow, and retain revenue for their missions
• And how you can create the conditions for revenue generation that can lead to the growth you need to truly power your mission and build a sustainable, resilient organization
