Whenever I hear,
"It can't be done,"
I know I'm close to
success.

Is Your Organization ready to raise record
breaking amounts of money this year?

We have all listened to the radio, watched TV and read in the
paper just how awful the economy is today. Throughout history,
there have been plenty of times far WORSE than these and
organizations that flourished right in the middle of the darkest of
economic times.
YOU could be one of those today!

Do you know what GE, Disney, Hewlett Packard and Microsoft have
in common? They all launched their companies during steep declines
in the U.S. economy. GE started during the panic of 1873, Disney
started during the recession of 1923-24, Hewlett Packard launched
their business during the Great Depression and Bill Gates and Paul
Allen founded Microsoft during the recession of 1975. Were these
business owners crazy, lucky or just smarter than everyone else?
You decide...

What separates non-profits like yours from for-profit businesses like
GE, Disney, HP and Microsoft? Easy,
YOU get better tax breaks and
YOU can provide your donors with financial opportunities these
companies can not. That immediately puts you in a fabulous
position to thrive, no matter what the economic outlook is.

So, why did these little start-up companies thrive in tough
economic times and grow to be powerhouses while everyone else
suffered? Simple, they had a plan, focused on success, weren't
afraid to roll up their sleeves, work SMARTER and they all KNEW
that there are just as many opportunites as there are challenges in
every situation, in every economy.... the trick is to stay focused
on finding the opportunities and then have the courage to take
action when you find those opportunities.

"There are no "good times" or "bad times" there are just
opportunties to thrive or to flounder, and whatever
YOU decide
they are, is exactly what they are."
Bonnie Marlewski-Probert.

Henry Ford once said,
"If you think you can, you can and if you
think you can't you can't."

While on a recent book tour, promoting volumes 6 & 7 of the Horse
Tales for the Soul
books, I traveled a total of 5000 miles, hosting
book signings at therapeutic riding centers throughout the Eastern
USA. In addition to having a great time and helping to raise a lot of
money for a lot of great centers, I came home with a new
awareness and as a result, a new goal. I became aware of the fact
that non-profits were struggling financially all across the country.
The other thing I recognized after meeting dozens of groups
face-to-face was that they could all exponentially increase their
success if they learned some new business techniques that
wouldn't cost them much time or money. All of these techniques
and strategies are used everyday in the for-profit world, can easily
be applied in the non-profit world in full compliance with the IRS
requirements and will easily transform a struggling non-profit into
one that is thriving, no matter what the economy is doing.

I am putting together at least a dozen training courses, fund raising
programs, teleseminars and more that are all focused on teaching
you how to gain financial success in your organization. We will be
rolling out these programs in the weeks to come.

what you need to know to get there and to stay there! No one will
work harder to help you succeed than I will, but you have to want
it and you have to be willing to roll up your sleeves to make it
happen. Are you in?
