I firmly believe that the entire United States (which is where 75% of our clientele lives) will be engrossed in the Presidential and Congressional elections and very little else. We are planning our webinar series on managing your editorial calendar for the following week (November 10 and 12) and even that has me nervous.

Have you ever written a fundraising letter? A fundraising letter you felt really proud about? One that presented your nonprofit in an amazing light. That showed how good you were working in your cause. One that was sure to convince donors to give to you? I have too. And I bet your fundraising letter hardly raised any money. Writing fundraising letters is hard.

Through the Nonprofit Communications Director Mentoring Program , I talk to a lot of communications directors who feel overwhelmed. I thought it might be helpful to you for me to share some of the questions I ask when I am coaching them. The first question I usually ask is how empowered they feel to make choices about their workload. This is a big question that on its own can unravel lots of details about control, supervision, internal communications, boundaries, and support or lack thereof.

This post was inspired by some recent research by our friends north of the border: Good Works out of Ottawa, Ontario. Now, Canadians are different from Americans in many ways. For instance. They have a Prime Minister instead of a President. Every Canadian has health care. And they prefer Tim Horton's to Starbucks. But at the end of the day, I'd bet that Canadian donors really aren't that different from American donors.
