Associates And Consultants

Over the years Capital Campaigns have evolved from mammoth campaigns with hundreds of volunteers and staff to today when campaigns are much smaller both in structure and length of time and are highly volunteer oriented.

Few Capital Campaigns for other than major institutions take more than 12 to 18 months to complete and are more recently designed to be conducted by development staff with the assistance of a consultant. In organizations that have no development department staff, they usually opt to have on-site campaign direction, that is, an on-site Campaign Director/Consultant who works 24/7 on their project.

We at Bradley Associates are proud to provide staffing whether you need it for a couple days a month or full-time on-site Director. We are in position to provide that staff to help achieve your goals in the shortest possible time line.

The ultimate success of a Capital Campaign for significant funding support of specific programs or projects, always goes back to the essential "pre-campaign" tasks that either were or were not accomplished prior to the start of the campaign. A stalled Capital Campaign is most likely the result of insufficient preparation. No Capital Campaign preparation step is more important than the Capital Campaign Planning Study (or Feasibility Study).

Here are our thoughts regarding the all-important Capital Campaign Planning Study:

The coaching that we provide has two components: coaching the organization and for the individual.

The organizational coaching relates to the institution itself, including budget, planning, staffing, marketing, and fundraising.

The individual coaching covers several areas, all which support the organization. Coaching consists of one on-site session per month, for approximately six months. At each session we work on various items that have been predetermined, to reach our goals. These individual goals match up to the organizational goals.

We examine and evaluate your personal plan and that of the organization; we will help you to think differently about how to build your career, and how to communicate your skills, strengths, and assets to your target employer. With our coaching and program, you will learn to use these skills to give you the opportunity to thrive in the world today. One of the approaches that we use is a five step program:

To build a clear vision of your career
Identify your personal image, or unique brand
Develop a branded resume or CV, and professional bio
Create an on-line identity
Apply key tools and strategies for long term career management and professional growth
Of course each one of these items relates to not only the individual but also to the organization. It gives us the opportunity to work together in developing a strategic long term plan for both, which will strength...

A regimented Campaign Planning Study is imperative in helping a nonprofit develop its fundraising plan. The Bradley Associates Campaign Planning Study focuses on numerous key questions, which need answering before moving forward, including:

Verify that the Capital Campaign is practical, has merit and that the dollars to be expended will produce significant results.

We will recommend a campaign goal based on the interviews and our experience in the Western United States.

Determine the support of the Case among prospective large contributors and current donors, and determine which elements of the Case are most dramatic and appealing to them on a scale of priorities for accomplishing your objectives.

We will determine the strengths and weaknesses of your Case to raise funds for the project.

Should any challenging factors exist, we will indicate how these are to be addressed. Positive factors will be described and a plan suggested so that these may be enhanced and developed to their full advantage, which will allow us to develop a campaign timeline.

Evaluate the public's image of your organization.

Evaluate the project in relation to the potential donors in your community.

Uncover, early, any problems or situations that could adversely affect fundraising results, along with competing campaigns.

Consider and analyze the current local economy and other issues in your...
