AARON CONSULTING COMPANY helps charities launch and expand major donor campaigns. From research and analysis, to committee development, pitch refinement and solicitations, Aaron Consulting will keep your campaign focused on its goals and always moving methodically forward.

Donor Assessment
The first step of any major donor campaign is to analyze past giving patterns and asses the philanthropic potential of your current donors. We then research philanthropic market conditions, including donor capacity, economic indicators, and competition from other organizations. We then map out a fundraising strategy aimed at realistically achieving your organization's full potential.

Campaign Materials
Most philanthropic decisions are made based mainly on a prospective donors impression of the people leading an organization, and not on written materials. But that does not mean the campaign materials should not be well written and smartly designed. Working closely with your organization and the campaign leadership, Aaron Consulting creates case statements and supporting documents that will help your organization distinguish itself from the competition. The process of refining the written materials helps your organization think through how to position itself, stay on message, and streamline the solicitation process.

Building the Committee
The campaign committee —typically comprised of board members, donors, and key staffers — is responsible for setting the goals and identifying new prospects. At Aaron Consulting, we work with your organization to cultivate and recruit people who have the capacity and commitment to make the campaign a success. We then work with the committee to delve deeply into their connections with friends, family, colleagues and members of their community.

Solicitations Management
Once an initial list of prospects is drawn up, Aaron Consulting manages the solicitation process. This may involve strategy meetings to plan an approach to each target, solicitation training sessions, editorial and logistical support, and follow up. Aaron Consulting's professional fundraising staff mange the solicitations using our own state-of-the art software, which is designed to keep organization staff and volunteers up to date on the status of each solicitations.
