Does this Sound Familiar?
You tend to generate short-term donor relationships that are expensive to manage and don’t encourage donor engagement, loyalty or trust.
You build long-term relationship with your donors because they know you’re making a difference together and are therefore happy to donate.
Your donors are often not addressed personally or consistently due to a lack of time and resources.
Your donors are attracted to your kind, appreciative communication and feel understood, which motivates them to donate more.
You find it difficult to address your donors in a tailored way and to retain them.
You understand the needs of your donors and know how to respond to them.
Ihr tut euch schwer, eure Spender:innen maßgeschneidert anzusprechen und langfristig an eure Organisation zu binden.
Ihr kennt die Bedürfnisse eurer Spender:innen und wisst, wie ihr auf sie eingehen könnt, ohne euch zu verstellen.
Known from:
I love developing new ideas, sharing my experience, and learning new things. My passionate work has been featured in some international media – especially in Europe and North America – as a lecturer, speaker and blog author. In 2020, I was recognized as an “Exceptional Women” for making equity a cornerstone of the “Relationships are Everything” conference I hosted.
Feeling seen and valued - research-based and centered on equity!!
Are you an organization that values progressive change? Does your mission involve treating people, animals and the environment with respect? Do you enjoy learning and showing up as your full self? Would you like to work with an experienced fundraiser?
Then relationship fundraising is right for you!
"But Julie, what exactly is relationship fundraising?"
This approach prioritizes regular interactions, personalized requests, and experiences that strengthen the donor-organization bond. The goal is to foster trust, engagement, and mutual appreciation over time, leading to increased donor retention and larger contributions.
“Belonging Environments“
Nneka Allen, Owner Empathy Agency, Canada
“Donor at the Heart of Her Work“
“I have found Julie to be a passionate fundraiser who is well connected and always up to date when it comes to developments in the fundraising world. Julie puts the donor at the heart of her work and is definitely a good sparring partner if you want to develop your fundraising program.”
Rahel Christen, Head of Private Fundraising, Pro Juventute Zurich, Switzerland
“A Consummate Professional”
“I loved working with Julie on the Relationships are Everything summit. Julie is a consummate professional, well organised, thoughtful, insightful and highly supportive. Despite the depth and breadth of the programme and the formidable, diverse body of talent that she assembled, Julie always made me feel an important part of the team, always listened and contributed and was a delight to deal with, throughout. That the event on the day was delivered so superbly was, I felt, a tribute to her creativity, deep knowledge and professional management skills. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I’m very happy to have the chance to recommend that you work with her.”
Ken Burnett, Author of Relationship Fundraising
“Highly Experienced Fundraising Specialist”
“Julie is a highly experienced fundraising specialist with a proven track record in the USA, Germany, and Switzerland. She is skilled at adapting her international expertise to the specific needs of Swiss organizations. She quickly understands the concerns of organizations and implements them conceptually, she is empathetic and warm-hearted – and above all, I can always have a good laugh with her. I can highly recommend her as a fundraising consultant!”
Valentine Vogel, Fundraising Expert bei valentinevogel.com
"Thinking Outside the Box ”
“Describing Julie in 3 words is almost impossible. Committed, smart, charming, and thinking outside the box probably sum it up best (even though that was more than 3 words).”
Tammo Schlüter, Senior Fundraising Manager SAKK Switzerland
