Capital campaigns can create incredible opportunities for growth and impact, but even a compelling vision can fall short without the right preparation.
In this episode of the Cause+Effect Podcast, Trent Dunham is joined by Erik Rogers, Chief Strategist for Donor Advancement at Dunham+Co, to unpack five common mistakes that can derail a capital campaign. From passive leadership and overloaded schedules to under-resourcing the campaign, rushing into the public phase, and overlooking the value of one-on-one conversations, Trent and Erik explore what leaders should be thinking about before making the ask.
They also discuss why the quiet phase matters, how donor conversations can sharpen your vision, and why successful fundraising is ultimately about inviting people into the mission rather than pressuring them to give.
