How to create a special event program that raises more money

Episode #314

Which part of your event raises the most money?

So often we get caught up in the daily tasks of the event that we don’t take the time to think through the program part of the event.  But this is where most of your money gets raised?  Right?

In today’s episode, Kristin Steele from Swaim Strategies, walks you through how to structure a simple program.  She shows you who should speak first and how to fill out your program with the right types of people. Kristin also put together a worksheet for you to help walk you through putting your program together.
