we coach the HeART and science of FUNdraising

At Susan Kramer Consulting we use data, psychology and communication techniques to tell the story of the non profit and of the donor.

As your partner, together we learn the nuance, creative flow, and dynamics of relationships.

Even more, we become masterful enough to merge the HeART and Science of FUNdraising into a seemingly effortless dance that magically transforms calculated strategy into a moment of authentic connection.

Team Building & Fundraising Strategy

Fish don’t fly and you can’t send a duck to eagle school. One of the most important things a leader can do is to utilize the natural strengths of each team member. Lean into strengths and compensate for weaknesses. When we work together, we help build strong, energized, and productive teams.

Testimonials (work with me)

I was grateful to be able to work with Susan, in my previous position as the Colorado Director of Moving Traditions. Susan helped me understand community analysis, moves management, and planning towards sustainable development goals. Her lessons have come with me to my current roles as director of Kaballah Experience. She was a supportive, and generous mentor. I would definitely recommend her to colleagues and friends.

– Melanie Gruenwald Executive Director Kaballah Experience

Susan was an active listener and able to guide the board towards its goals, even as individuals tried to pull us off of our path. Susan’s vast knowledge of the Jewish community, in general, was VITAL to the success of our retreat. It not only gave her credibility among our board members but in fact educated many of our board to what was taking place globally in the world of Jewish non-profits.

– Debbie H. Gonzalez Board Chair Jewish Federation of Sacramento

When Book Trust was expanding its leadership team, we needed to spend intentional time getting to know our new team members and find ways to deepen our understanding of the entire team. Susan Kramer facilitated a half-day session for our team and successfully met these objectives. We left the retreat wishing for more time with Susan!

– Amy Friedman Past President and CEO Book Trust
