F2F fundraising is a dynamic, engaging, and transformational fundraising channel. Dynamic in its nature of recruitment but also in its real-time data analytics and relationships – from the public through to Board members. You cannot hope to raise funds for your mission by keeping a F2F supplier at arm’s length so how are you empowering them to thrive and advance your mission?

This engaging session will provide tips and insights on how to create a winning culture between you and your face-to-face agency. From set up considerations, contract negotiations through to performance KPIs and weathering the challenges of a media storm. The circle of success can help you optimise your F2F program to create that win-win culture.

We will explain and actively challenge this code – demonstrating how it practically supports everyday (and innovative) fundraising.

We will discuss how this was developed – and the stakeholders crucial to its success.
