Tom sits down with Mandy Moody of Odeo Consulting to unpack what really keeps small nonprofits stuck under the million-dollar mark — and how to finally break through it.
If you’ve ever felt busy but not growing, this episode is for you.
Mandy shares her practical and proven Four P Framework:
- Problem – Get crystal clear on the problem you actually solve.
- Programs – Align what you do with why you exist.
- Plan – Build a financial story of impact donors can understand.
- Purposeful Investment – Invite supporters to give at their highest level.
This isn’t theory. Mandy walks through how her organization went from $750K to over $2 million by simplifying, focusing, and operationalizing a plan the whole team could follow.
You’ll learn:
- Why most strategic plans collect dust (and how to fix that)
- How to create internal clarity that fuels external growth
- The biggest mistake nonprofits make when talking to donors about money
- How to move from grinding to scaling
Whether you're a founder, executive director, or development leader trying to cross that million-dollar threshold, this episode delivers actionable steps you can implement immediately.
