In this first episode of the Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast I get the chance to interview my good friend, Roy Jones, CFRE. Roy is Vice President of Development at Mercy Ships, co-author of Rainmaking: The Fundraiser's Guide to Landing Big Gifts, and co-host of the Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast.
In this episode you'll hear us discuss how Roy and his team have transformed the major gift operation at Mercy Ships and created a fundraising program that is unlocking the passion of donors worldwide. Roy also shares tips and insights with us about building a high-capacity major gift team, and what he's doing to free his team up to spend more meaningful time with donors.
Roy is a featured contributor in my newest book, the Amazon #1 Best Seller, 101 Biggest Mistakes Nonprofits Make And How You Can Avoid Them. As a special bonus for our Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast listener audience, you can download BOTH of Roy's chapters for FREE here!
