The Art and Science of the Ask

About the Workshop:
The Art and Science of the Ask
The “dreaded” ask keeps us from reaching out to people who might likely appreciate the opportunity to invest in your organization. Get ready to join with colleagues and do some asking in this hands-on and interactive workshop to alleviate the analysis/paralysis that comes with asking someone for money.  It’s a blend of Art and Science that you too can embrace.
In this workshop participants will learn:
-How to build your menu of sizzling requests
-How to find your style in asking people for support
-How to just do it and make that ask!
