The starting point for every successful capital campaign.
You’ve probably heard that a feasibility study can help you project the amount of money your campaign will raise.
But did you know your feasibility study can help you build relationships with donors, too? It all comes down to how you conduct your study.

Capital Campaign Pro is Trusted by…

I’ve always been leery of feasibility studies. Why pay somebody else to go talk to our donors? You have to develop the relationships. I am so glad this model of feasibility study exists. It’s what drew me to Capital Campaign Pro. That, and the fact that I don’t need to pay half a million dollars to raise five million.
5 Ways to Unlock Success with a Guided Feasibility Study
- Build stronger relationships. Because your team conducts interviews (with our support and guidance), you strengthen relationships with your biggest potential donors prior to asking for gifts. This serves you well before, during, and after your campaign.
- Learn what donors really think. You hear directly from donors, rather than through the filter of a consultant. Donors get to know you instead of an impersonal interview with a consultant. Experience has shown that donors are happy to be open and honest with nonprofit leaders.
- Intensive training for your team. We prepare you, your staff, board members, as well as campaign volunteers for strategic discussions with donors before, during, and after the campaign.
- Fully transparent data. Anonymous and confidential interviews with outside consultants lead to vague and fuzzy data. From experience, we know that donors are open and honest with nonprofit leaders, eliminating all that secrecy.
- Natural path to solicitation. Open interviews lead to seamless solicitations. No need to guess at early gift indications, because you hear them directly from donors and simply continue the conversation when it’s time to solicit a gift. Campaign gifts are pledged considerably faster using the Pro model.
Our experts help assess your donor list and prepare you for discussions that will yield the donor feedback you need — all while building relationships and engaging donors.

The results of my Guided Feasibility Study were amazing! I deepened my relationships with donors. I learned about the strengths and weaknesses of my campaign plans. And by the time I finished the interviews, I had verbal commitments for nearly half of my campaign goal!
