Alumni 2018 Nonprofit Storytelling Conference - Nonprofit Storytelling Conference

#1 conference on how to use storytelling to raise more money in less time

New at this year’s conference

This year is about helping you implement new strategies faster than ever.

You'll get more more strategies to:

  • check
    Find more donors
  • check
    Strengthen donor relationships
  • check
    Raise more money from your current donors

And Also

Because storytelling isn't just for raising money, we're adding 
BRAND NEW sessions on ORGANIZATIONAL and LEADERSHIP storytelling.

Nonprofits need stories to grow their leadership in their community. They need stories so elected officials understand why their cause matters. They need stories that help neighbors support their expansion.

So this year you'll leave the conference with storytelling skills that will help you become a better influencer at your organization and in your community.

Time Saving Tools

You'll get process maps, checklists, and other tools to help make your job easier and more productive. 

These will help you when you're at your office.  If you ever become overwhelmed with choices as to what your next step should be, these maps and checklists will be there to help point you in the right direction.

How to use storytelling to better connect with your community so that you can predictably and consistently bring in more donations in LESS TIME.

NPSC unique “Storytelling” approach integrates classic X (lead generation advertising) with X (proven multi-step, multi-media follow-up) – producing a flood of leads, customers, and profits.

"I’ve never been to a conference that was so directly related to what I do on a daily basis. Everything I learned was incredibly useful, and I’m already able to apply it!"
Lisa Miller - Development & Fundraising Writer, Plan International USA

"I want two things from a conference: learning and rejuvenation... There's nowhere I'd rather rejuvenate than here."
Patti J. Saunders - Development Director, Alaska Community Action on Toxics

Connect with Your Colleagues

The conference offers more time to connect with colleagues and similar organizations so that you can learn from one another.

There will also be more time to connect with the experts. 

Expanded StoryLabs

Story labs is where you get one-on-one help with the experts.

Sit down face to face with them and get your questions answered immediately.

"A 10-minute conversation with Jeff Brooks about general arts funding, and how to ask for it, put me on a different track for our end-of-year letter. I went right out to the porch, sat in the sun, and rewrote my letter in longhand, refined it that night and sent it to graphics on Sunday morning. It went out Friday, already checks are coming in.  I take everything you guys tell me and make money with it."
Jan Halliday - Development Director, Port Townsend Film Festival

I can leave my work at the end of the day knowing, "I’ve done good”

I can be fully present with my partner and family when I get home.

I can enjoy the time.
