Given that similarity, causes and sponsors might consider developing an approach to mission that the military uses called ‘commander’s intent.’ According to Wikipedia , it means: “An intent describing military focused operations and it is a publicly stated description of the end-state as it relates to forces (entities, people) and terrain, the purpose of the operation, and key tasks to accomplish. But commander’s intent puts the lie to that notion.

NOVEMBER 17, 2010

Is your intention to build a relationship that will bring money to the organization or do you see your prospects as community connectors? Let your prospects know what direction you are going. When making an introduction, do you set any expectations as to how the conversation will go? It cuts down on the number of uninterested people you talk with if they have an idea of why you’re having a conversation with them.

At your events, the most important thing you can do is connect with your guests. Attendees come to the event from many different places, some are already close to the organizations, some are just trying it out for the first time, and then there is everyone in between. I find it really easy to get lost in a good conversation and then miss an opportunity to meet someone new or connect in a deeper way with a guest still learning more about the organization.

They key to a good brand is working with intention. Branding is automatic.  Everyone has a brand. If a brand is a set of promises and expectations that you offer to the world, and it is , then you should understand that you (and your art) are always making promises. Not all promises are good ones. The overworked, tired, poorly paid Wal Mart worker is becoming a brand as big as the store itself. The internet troll is a brand.

One of those words is "intent," although warriors like Musashi or Sun Tzu probably meant it more like attitude or spirit than a dictionary definition such as purpose. A combination might work best, as in intent: an attitude that.

This seems like such a basic, "Fundraising Ethics 101" topic that I'd never have to write a post explicitly about it, but it seems that even high profile nonprofit organizations need to be reminded: Donor Intent is King! This month started with the news that country star Garth Brooks had won his million dollar lawsuit against a regional hospital. The issue was over a donation Brooks had made with the understanding that a building would be named for the singer's late mother.

“YES, LET’S MEET”- They notified you about their gift intentions AND want more engagement such as a face-to-face meeting or a tour of your facility, etc. “NO, I DON’T WANT TO MEET”- Sure, these folks have notified you about their gift intentions but they don’t want to meet with anyone so they’ll need to be carefully stewarded from afar to ensure the gift sticks. But they’ll keep their gift intentions private.
