Welcome to another episode of Nonprofit CourageLab! Today, I'm sharing a sneak peek into a recent Pitch-A-thon where we dive into the art of nonprofit pitching – not in a Shark Tank kind of way, but more like engaging in a powerful and meaningful conversation. Together, we'll explore strategies to connect authentically with donors, practice impactful pitches, and avoid common missteps. This episode is perfect if you're looking to make a difference through your ask, not just for your organization but in a way that resonates deeply with donors. In this episode, we work with Sheena, a nonprofit leader from "To Write Love on Her Arms," as she crafts a personalized pitch. She highlights the importance of youth mental health, shares their impact on high school students across the country, and tailors her message to resonate with the specific values and passions of her donor.Key Takeaways:- Building Relationships, Not Pitches: A pitch should feel like a natural extension of a relationship. We're not here to talk "at" people but to create a back-and-forth that lets the donor feel heard, valued, and understood.- Focus on the Donor, Not Just the Cause: Too often, pitches spotlight only the organization's needs. Remember: the donor is a partner. Tailor your ask to what drives them and make it clear why they're essential to the mission.- Tell Stories, Don't Share Stats: Highlight how your work impacts individuals. Personal stories can be more powerful than numbers alone. For example, share how an 11-year-old struggling with depression found hope and healing through your program.- Practice Makes Perfect (and Shorter!): Awareness of time is key. Practice your pitch, time it, and refine it so it lands clearly within a 2-3 minute window. You'll surprise yourself by how much impact you can make in a short, well-crafted pitch.Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

If you're a coach, soloist, or small business owner, communicating your ideas is essential. But how do you make storytelling a part of your regular life and business? How do you tell stories that are meaningful and interesting to both you, and the people you serve? And, what do you do when you make a mistake or your work is misinterpreted in some way? In this episode, I explore all of this and more with my guest, Jason Leenaarts. Jason is the owner of Revolution Fitness & Therapy, a semi-private personal training studio in Northeast Ohio. He's an MNU certified nutritionist, author of two books available on Amazon and former host of the Revolutionary You podcast. Jason is an avid — and consistent — communicator, having maintained his blog for years, releasing weekly podcast episodes for six years before retiring his podcast, posting social content daily, and publishing two books. Through it all, he is honest and open about his own struggles including his past experiences with drug addiction, as well as the messiness and challenges of everyday life. If you want to bring more authenticity and personal storytelling into your brand and business communications, be more consistent with your writing, and navigate mistakes and pushback from others, check out this episode. We cover: - Why Jason chooses to speak openly about his experiences with drug addiction and his “colorful” past, and how that has impacted his business and his ability to help people - How to balance the personal vs the professional when it comes to storytelling. (And why your “what the hell, I'm just gonna write about the thing I care about” moments can be the most fruitful.) - How to write about stuff that interests you while also serving the needs and interests of your audience. - How Jason put out a podcast every week for 6 years — what he learned from it, and why he decided it was time to quit. - What happens when your content bombs and people misinterpret or just plain hate what you've said — and how to recover. - Jason's method for responding to criticism and how to use it to make your work better. - How to balance the need to ship your work with the value of putting out rigorous and intentional work. - What a regular writing practice can look like, and how to make time for it. - Why NOW is the time to put your ideas, your wisdom, your story out into the world — and exactly why it matters so much.

Even the smallest expression on our face can convey powerful stories. Everyone's face tells a story. Our expressions reveal emotions and become a visual narrative of what we feel. Do you agree?

Are you struggling to get sales from your Instagram content? It might be because you're focusing too much on promotional content and not enough on attracting your ideal clients! I'm breaking down the key differences between promotional content and attraction content, and why finding the right balance is the secret sauce to growing your audience and landing your dream clients. In this episode, you'll learn:[00:25] Understanding Promotional Content vs. Attraction Content:Discover why too much promotional content can make your feed look like a spammy sales pitch and turn off potential clients.[04:15] What is Promotional Content?Promotional content is when you're directly selling your products or services—think Canva slides showcasing your offers or reels listing your products. While this is important, it shouldn't be your main focus.[05:37] What is Attraction Content?Attraction content is all about serving your audience by providing value. It's designed to build trust and establish you as an authority in your niche. Think helpful tips, behind-the-scenes peeks, or solving small problems for your followers.[09:25] Why Attraction Content Works:Learn how shifting your focus from "me, me, me" to "you, you, you" builds a relationship and trust with your audience. When people feel seen and supported, they're more likely to engage with and share your content.3 Steps to Shift from Promotional to Attraction Content:Give Before You Take:[10:50] Start with value-packed content that solves a problem or answers a question for your dream client.Tell Stories, Don't Just Sell Products:[12:39] Share the "why" behind your offers. If you're a jewelry maker, take your followers behind the scenes of your creative process. Create an emotional connection instead of just listing products for sale.Hook Them from the Start:[13:06] You only have a few seconds to capture attention. Focus on compelling hooks in your content that speak directly to your ideal client's pain points or desires.

We know what it takes to share a powerful story, we know what it feels like in our bodies to be vulnerable and share that story. But what is actually happening in our brains when we're on stage sharing that story with an audience. I cover neurochemical releases, neural coupling, and how stories help with memory retention.

How do you tell stories in a world that's so highly divided?How do we invite audiences and team members into a brand story when they share different ideas on how the world SHOULD look and think and act?Even more, SHOULD we be telling stories that seek to pull others into our shared moral understandings?I think the answer lies in the words of John Milton, and when we lean in and hear what he has to say, I think we might be surprised at the answer we receive. Mentioned in this episode: Karen Swallow PriorJohn Milton: “He that can apprehend and consider vice with all her baits and seeming pleasures, and yet abstain, and yet distinguish, and yet prefer that which is truly better, he is the true wayfaring Christian.I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised & unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race, where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat."

Intentional Storytelling: Hutchens stresses that storytelling should be intentional and methodical, crafting stories purposefully to achieve their desired results. Repetition and Consistency: The more often people hear the stories, the more likely that people will engage with the business's vision and goals.

“What's the difference between the brands everyone talks about and the ones we can't remember?” That's the question that me and my colleague Glenn are pondering over coffee this week. He expresses surprise at the over $1 billion valuation of the brand Liquid Death. “They sell water in a can. It's just water,” he tells me. Yet their success doesn't surprise me because they sell it in a cool can (with a cool slogan) and have a unique, edgy, unforgettable story their fans love to tell and show off. It's not just about what you sell; it's also about the stories you tell regarding your products, services, and brand. In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll learn how some of the world's most iconic and successful brands use storytelling to captivate, engage, and build connections with their audience. In the process, you'll discover why you need to tell stories to build your brand, too, and get answers to questions like: What are the keys to using stories for captivating, engaging, and building relationships with your brand's customers or clients? What are some practical strategies you can use for brand building with storytelling? How can you measure the impact of your storytelling on your audience? What you will learn in this episode: How stories create a powerful emotional connection and lasting memory for your brand How to use story to humanize your brand, share its values and mission, and build an engaging community around it How to leverage different platforms for and measure the impact of effective brand storytelling A little about me: Hi there. I'm Kymberlee. As a Speaking Strategist and founder of Storytelling School, I've had the pleasure of working with over 500 speakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs worldwide for over a decade. No matter if those folks were getting ready to take the TED or TEDx stage or preparing for a high-stakes presentation with everything on the line, my specialty is High Stakes Short Form Communication. I've seen what works when influencing change and what doesn't. It turns out storytelling is one of the most powerful tools you can have in your arsenal. That's why I'm building a movement of master storytellers to affect change in the world on a global scale to help people tell real stories that have influence and impact. With effective storytelling, you change people's lives. Since competition for potential client attention is fierce, a story can make the difference between being memorable or irrelevant. You'll find me sharing my matcha tea mishap to discuss perfectionism, my quest for Bruce Lee and Hello Kitty art to explore kindness, or the six months of live blade training I underwent to illustrate presence. I spend my days showing the power of using stories to help cement ideas and bring lessons to life and teach my clients to do the same. If you think business owners can't tell stories or don't have stories to share with their clients, staff, donors, followers, or investors, I invite you to reconsider your perspective. There's no better place than in business to tell your stories so audiences, no matter how big or small, can understand how you think and what you value. Now it's your turn... If you're ready to become a master storyteller and effect change in our world, you've come to the right place.
