FAQ — California Campaign Consulting
Do you only work with nonprofits in California?
We work with nonprofits nationwide, but California is one of our favorite states to serve. With dozens of prior capital campaign clients throughout the Golden State, we bring deep local knowledge of the regional landscape, along with our national expertise.
Will I work with a California-based advisor?
We match each client with the advisor best suited to their campaign, mission, and working style, but we're happy to factor in your preference for local context.
How is a capital campaign in California different from one in other states?
California has a distinctive and generous philanthropic community, from longstanding family foundations to major regional funders actively investing in the area's future. Our role is to help you reach them effectively. We focus on identifying and cultivating supporters already in your orbit, as well as regional donors and foundations most likely to invest in your mission, so your campaign captures the support that's right here in the Golden State.
How much does capital campaign consulting cost?
We offer multiple, flexible pricing plans to fit your campaign and budget. The best way to find the right fit is a free strategy call where we can match the right level of support to your goals. Because we work with you virtually — by phone, email, and Zoom — you get expert guidance without the travel costs and on-site fees that drive up traditional consulting bills.
Do we need a feasibility study?
A feasibility study is one of the most valuable tools we offer, and most organizations benefit from completing one. Our Guided Feasibility Study is a distinctive model in which your team conducts the donor interviews with our structure, training, and support — rather than outsourcing those conversations to an outside consultant. The result: stronger donor relationships before you ever ask for a gift.
That said, not every client takes this route, and we'll recommend the path that best fits your goal, your donor relationships, and what you already know about your campaign's viability.
My nonprofit has never run a capital campaign before. Are we ready?
First-time campaigners are some of our favorite clients! Readiness depends less on organization size or experience and more on board engagement, existing donor relationships, and organizational clarity — all things we can help you assess and strengthen. The fastest way to find out where you stand is to schedule a free strategy call, and we'll give you an honest, encouraging read on your next steps.
