    Episode 271: Communication Fatigue in a Hyperconnected World - Better mass communication tactics
    Mar 3 2026
    In a world of overflowing inboxes and nonstop notifications, nonprofits risk becoming part of the noise. Tackle donor fatigue head-on. Most organizations don’t have a generosity problem. They have an attention and trust problem. With six practical tactics, Randall outlines how to audit communications, segment by motivation (not wealth), rebalance ask-to-impact ratios, create quiet periods, clarify priorities, and even let donors choose their preferences. The solution isn’t more creativity or more volume – it’s more discipline. Do less, do it better, and build relationships that last.

    Episode 270: Using Faith Based Fundraising Lessons in Secular Organizations
    Feb 24 2026
    Faith-based giving and secular nonprofits aren’t opposites. They share a powerful common thread: values. Today, we explore how nonprofits can learn from faith-driven philanthropy without becoming religious organizations. The key is aligning with a donor’s core motivations (identity, legacy, duty, compassion) and designing language, stories, and discovery questions that tap into that deeper connection. When you move beyond transactions and speak to values, you unlock loyalty, retention, and transformational giving. Done well, this approach strengthens relationships today and opens the door to long-term legacy support tomorrow.

    Feb 17 2026
    Peer-to-peer fundraising isn’t a magic fix for struggling nonprofits. It’s a strategy that requires discipline, clarity, and real support. In this episode, Randall breaks down what peer-to-peer fundraising is, where organizations overestimate its impact, and why it often underperforms. From building the right case to stewarding volunteers like donors, he outlines seven tactical steps that separate sustainable pipeline growth from volunteer fatigue. Done poorly, it creates frustration and distrust. Done well, it expands reach, deepens relationships, and strengthens long-term donor development.
