From the author of From CHAOS to CONTROL, we know how to make your fund development data valuable.

We provide a program called Four Days which shows you how to build a high performance team with tools and methods to support consistency and long term continuity.

I’m a fundraising expert with 20+ years of frontline experience raising millions of dollars across the arts, education, health and human services sectors. 

I specialize in working with nonprofits to increase your revenue and exceed your goals by helping you raise more 5, 6 and 7- figure donations.

If you want to get focused on getting the biggest bang for your fundraising buck - and you’re ready to stop working reactively, rushing from crisis to crisis, and chasing after the latest FSO (Fundraising Shiny Object)…

Here’s how I can help:

Create consistent, reliable revenue growth 

Do you suspect that you could be raising much more money, much more effectively?

I can help you understand the effectiveness of your current fundraising, discover untapped opportunities, and understand what needs to be in place for your future fundraising success.

Whether your major gift efforts need a makeover, or your overall fundraising needs a total transformation, I can help you create the consistent, reliable revenue growth you need scale your programs and services and touch more lives through your important work.

Raise the money you need to move the needle for your mission  

Recent headlines are saying that fundraising is down, donations are down, and donor retention is down. 

You could let this news get to you - but I think your crucial work is too important to give in to Chicken Little Syndrome!  

With my skills in Strategy Development and Planning, we can work together to see the big picture, understand the current fundraising trends that impact you, and put a strategy in place to raise the money you need to really start moving the needle for your mission. 

Take your fundraising to the next level

I’ve taken everything I’ve learned from more than 20 years of successful fundraising, and broken it down into a clear, comprehensive coaching and training program for every budget level. 

Do you have board members who want to help, but are uncertain of where to begin?  Are you a CEO who needs to sharpen your major donor meeting skills? Or a small shop fundraiser who would benefit from additional support and skill-sharing?

I can provide you with customized Coaching and Training – through digital courses, one-on-one coaching, or with small or large group training, I can help you and your team develop the skills and knowledge you need to take your fundraising to the next level.

Summary

cloudStack Services exists as a bridge between Salesforce and our nonprofit clients. As a Salesforce Implementation partner, we help nonprofits adopt and efficiently use the Salesforce donor management CRM. 

We support nonprofits as they integrate Salesforce for fundraising, delivering programs, marketing, managing volunteers, and reporting. And because 95% of our business is with charities and nonprofits, we’re keenly aware of limited budgets and time constraints.

We get it! Migrating to new technology can feel intimidating. 

That’s why we work with you to outline your end goals. We’ll help translate your nonprofit needs into technology, and will be there to support you every step of the way as you prepare to implement a new Salesforce system. We appreciate that a phased approach to a Salesforce implementation is often necessary.

Our founders have worked with Salesforce for decades. When working with cloudStack Services, you’ll get an experienced team but with a boutique, personal feel that our smaller company is able to offer. It’s the best of both worlds. 

The Product

cloudStack Services includes a central donor management system called fundraisingManager. It allows you to start or improve the specific aspects of fundraising that are key to your success: managing donors, campaigns, internal fundraising notes, receipting, and much more.

We install and seamlessly migrate all data from other systems into your tailor-made CRM platform. It’s flexible enough to meet the needs of your nonprofit and constituents now, and as your organization evolves, so will your CRM platform – future-proofing your investment.

With fundraisingManager, you will remove tedious, repetitive administrative tasks and get back valuable time to focus on what you’re good at – serving the needs of your constituents. 

You can also expand the capabilities of fundraisingManager with our two add-ons: receiptManager and financeManager.

receiptManager helps to make donation tax receipting a breeze. With this extension, you can automatically create and send consolidated receipts or year-end giving summaries, that meet all criteria for the Canada Revenue Agency or IRS, to donors in a single step.

financeManager allows you to seamlessly match and reconcile donations to create bank deposits, and then push directly to QuickBooks Online to avoid double data entry, reduce errors and save time.

Whatever your nonprofit needs, cloudStack Services is here to bridge the nonprofit and tech divide once and for all.
