Stuck at a Fundraising Plateau?

When your fundraising efforts seem to have hit the ceiling, we provide the strategies, insights, and resources to help you breakthrough. At Marquez Giving Strategies, we tailor our approach to your organization's unique needs, ensuring sustainable growth and long-term success.

Traditional support options just aren’t cutting it:

Hiring In-House

When budgets are tight, you may have to hire less experienced staff, which often leads to more time spent on training and oversight. This slows down your fundraising efforts and requires more internal resources to manage effectively.

The Marquez Difference:
We provide both strategic direction and hands-on implementation, ensuring your fundraising plan doesn’t gather dust. We work directly with your team to turn strategy into action so you see real growth and tangible results—not just another plan.

Consultant

Traditional consultants often provide strategy without implementation, leaving you with a well-crafted plan that sits idle. Without follow-through, your investment doesn't yield the actionable results you need to move forward.

Strategic Oversight

With over 10 years of fundraising experience, as a certified Fractional Fundraiser, I start by developing a tailored fundraising plan that clearly outlines strategic objectives and actionable steps for your fundraising program.

Risk Free, Results Oriented

Hiring in-house comes with a lot of risk and not much reward. Just imagine getting better fundraising results without hiring staff, proving space for them, and managing their day-to-day activities. Forget staff turnover or only hiring someone “your budget can afford”. We provide the best in small-shop fundraising at a budget you can afford, taking away your risk.

What to expect.

Your Relationships

We respect the work you’ve already put into building your relationships; they will always stay with your organization. When we act on your behalf, we’re representing your organization. We do not bring donors to your organization or take them with us when we leave.

Consistency for your ROI

Fundraising success takes time and consistency. Your results depend on where you are starting and what your fundraising priorities are. When is the right time to make this investment? That depends on your ambitions for your organization. A Fractional Fundraiser exists to make the most of your investment.

FAQs

  • Usually small organizations have limited budgets for staffing, which means they end up hiring someone junior without much fundraising strategy or expeirence. That person usually ends up spending a lot of time and energy on things that are not moving things forward. Instead, with that budget you can hire a Fractional Fundraiser who brings over 10 years of fundraising experience to the table with a passion for implementation and getting it done. Our clients love this solution to help them grow strategically.

    An added benefit is that a Fractional Fundraiser require less supervision meaning less stress for the ED! Bonus!

  • A Fractional Fundraiser costs $5,000 per month plus tax. Contracts start at 12 months.

  • Each organization is unique and your fundraising strategy should be unique to you. Fractional Fundraisers are fundraising generalists and can do it all - from individual giving and major gifts, to grant writing or sponsorships. The only thing we don't do are large events.

    We start each engagement with a Strategic Planning process to develop a clear fundraising plan with goals and activities to move your fundraising forward. Then, we do the work!

    Implementation means writing appeals, managing your data, working with your program team to write and submit grants, building relationships, managing sponsorships, doing social media, etc. We help you figure out which activities are a priority and then we do them. We even stuff envelopes when needed!

  • If a fundraiser or fundraising consultant offers guaranteed results, RUN. That is probably a sign they are doing something unethical.

    Fundraising success takes time and consistency. Your results depend on where you are starting and what your fundraising priorities are.

  • Here's a novel approach - we don't track hours! That's right - we focus on deliverables and outcomes. Fractional Fundraisers are experienced and efficient and take on only the amount of clients they can handle as well as how much they want to work (shocker - not everyone wants to work 60 hours/week - LOL). Our clients are delighted at the level of support they receive.
