About this listen
In this powerful episode of the Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast, Andrew Olson is joined by Alan Clayton, author of Great Fundraising Organizations and founder of Revolutionise. Together, they explore what separates thriving nonprofits from those that struggle, why fundraising success starts with leadership, and how to run two distinct businesses (service delivery and fundraising) within one mission. Alan shares key insights from 12 years of global research, offers practical leadership strategies, and issues a call to embrace emotional storytelling, strategic investment, and purpose-driven culture. If you want to unlock transformational growth at your organization, this conversation is essential.
