How to Raise Money for Your Candidate or Cause

This is just the beginning ... But we have to get better at doing the basics.

In this paid series I’m eventually going to dive into the following:

1. Why do you need money?

2. How big is your budget?

3. What are the legal stipulations?

4. What region will this influence?

5. Who are the target (or ideal) donors?

6. Why would they want to give?

7. What is your timeline?

8. What will be your follow up with donors/how will you follow up?
