Your $20 Research Employee Just Outperformed Your $50K Consultant

With so much uncertainty I wanted to find a way to add value to you non-profit leaders, with no intent to sell you anything here. I figured I'd create these Weekly Emails I call Monday Motivational Minute because Mondays are historically the roughest days, and a minute . . . well because you're very busy people. In these, I'll add creative, quick, actionable takeaways for you to try (All in a minute read). No pressure, no need to respond, read at your leisure or unsubscribe if it doesn't add value.

Happy Magnificent Monday!

Wish you could pay thousands to hire a personal researcher, but your budget is screaming, "Feed me Seymour! "(Eh, Little Shop of Horror? Eh, ..tough crowd, anywayzzz 😋)

Every nonprofit leader knows that crushingly time-consuming feeling when you need deep research on grants, major donors, or funding strategies but consultants quote $5,000+ while your research budget is basically negative. Meanwhile, million-dollar opportunities slip by because you're juggling chain saws and fire torches and can't be distracted!

What if I told you, you could hire a researcher and they're only asking for only $20 a month; an “no”, child labor is still illegal.

Your hidden goldmine: Your $20 AI subscription isn't just for writing emails, it's your personal research powerhouse capable of diving deeper than any consultant you could afford.

How much would you pay for someone who could identify every grant your organization qualifies for, research donors who've recently funded similar organizations, or create detailed multi-million dollar funding strategies? 

Actionable Task: Time to find out what that "Deep Research" button you've been avoiding delivers

Try these prompts today:

• "Research 15 foundations that awarded grants over $100K to [your cause] organizations in [your state] within 24 months. Include contact details and deadlines."

• "Analyze successful multi-million dollar grants to organizations like [yours]. Create our positioning strategy."

• "Identify 20 major donors in [your region] who've given $50K+ to similar causes. Include approach strategies."

Remember: Sometimes the guidance we need isn't complex advice, it's simple direction toward what we already possess. The right perspective turns invisible into obvious 🙏🏾
