Your supporters want to help. Asking them for advice helps you and engages them at a deeper level. You’ll both be glad you did!
Often, when you ask for advice, supporters will tell you exactly how they prefer to be asked for money. The transparency you show in conversations around how you raise funds invites them to also be transparent about how they approach giving.

Be sure to report back to them and let them know how their advice helped!
