Through great teaching, relative content and collaboration, not only did we surpass our goal but we have a confidence moving forward as to how to build on what we have learned. Jesse is a great teacher and he was so willing to share his knowledge.

Jesse Lane and his team has been one of the best decisions we have ever made. They care about our vision and truly partner with us! We have seen a five to seven fold increase in sales for every dollar we have spent on marketing our online store. We were so pleased with the results that we have renewed our marketing contract twice to tackle other areas including donor development.

I head the advancement and marketing efforts of a nonprofit organization in Northwest Arkansas, and I have found Jesse Lane and team to be a wealth of practical, savvy insights. If you want to know how to effectively increase your organization's share-of-voice in the community and advance its mission while being compassionate and ethical toward those you serve, [this] training will be an invaluable resource to you.

Jesse and his crew are a great mix of expert wisdom from many years in marketing... and patience, insights, and generosity.

So thankful for the time and ability to participate in this class. We saw a huge return in our time investment that allowed us to be successful in this year’s campaign.

The Masterclass truly helped us get unstuck in places of financial development. As a smaller organization just beginning to develop a donor base, the practical support has been invaluable!

The masterclass ... through simple, practical, well-proven steps that slowly got us out of stress and into a workable modal that we will use from here on out. We are forever grateful!!

This Masterclass empowered us with an organized plan for succeeding in a major giving event. Even better, it helped reframe how we think about asking for gifts. We do it with pride now!

My skepticism was quickly crushed when we made 140 times more in donations on NWA Gives than the prior year. This was without a doubt the direct result of this training.

This class is a game changer! ... Just be open to put in the effort and follow the plan and the rewards will happen!

This masterclass helped our nonprofit grow from $300 raised by 3 donors for NWA Gives 2023 to more than $27,000 raised by 170+ donors [in 2024]. I can't thank Jesse and the team enough for equipping us with the tools & resources to improve our campaign and every fundraising campaign going forward!

The Masterclass was instrumental to our success with our NWA Gives Campaign. It took us to new heights and gave crucial information for continued success.

[This training] gave me the confidence to believe that I was capable of reaching a goal that was eight times more than the previous year's goal. This class was invaluable for my growth as a fundraiser.

[The training] equipped our organization with the tools and road map to effective fundraising from start to finish and even after a fundraising campaign.

NWA Gives was a huge success for us. I enjoyed planning and executing the campaign with training and support from the goodmakerU staff.

It has completely transformed how I look at our fundraising model. We operate on a events model, and are working to get away from that. This proved to me, maybe we really can replace an event with a giving campaign.

This class was such game changer for me as a non-profit leader... this class gave the the encouragement I didn't know I needed to keep drawing others into the story... Confidently sharing out mission with others, knowing the impact it can have.

The Masterclass provided us with valuable knowledge and leadership skills that will enable us to take our organization to the next level. The classes were packed full of wisdom, and the relationships we built have been so encouraging!

The clarity and excellence that can be achieved with exceptional guidance and collaboration has made and continues to make ALL the difference in our fundraising efforts - we have seen a monumental positive shift for our organization in these last few months from both a communication and financial aspect and we couldn’t be more grateful.

The Masterclass has been instrumental in shaping our mindset about fundraising to one that is more empowered, equipped and truly excited about the possibilities.

As a non-profit leader, the Fundraising Masterclass has been equal parts game-changing lessons, productive networking, and empowering group therapy. The lessons we learned have been easy to implement from day one, but the impact they have had on our organization has been anything but simple!

Jesse and Ben are not only experts in their field but also passionate about sharing their wisdom and empowering everyone in the class. Through interactive sessions, hands-on activities and thought-provoking discussions, they provided a deeper understanding of donor relations and donor stewardship and ways to apply these to real-world scenarios.

The program was a positive change in our organization, especially about fundraising in the latino community.

Participating in the masterclass for nonprofits has been transformative, providing invaluable insights into effective fundraising strategies and community engagement.
