Every person you put on your nonprofit's board is supposed to either give money themselves or go raise it from people they know.

That's what “give-get” means, and it's a normal part of sitting on a board in this sector.

The problem is that a lot of founders don't know that when they're starting out, so they put a few friends on the board, and nobody ever says the money part out loud.

Then a year in they've got a board that comes to meetings and votes on things but has never brought in a dollar.

If someone can't write a check themselves, that's fine, plenty of good board members can't. But then you ask them to raise it instead, from their own network.

What you can't do is let people join without knowing that's the deal, because for a small nonprofit that money is a huge part of how you survive.

You posted for a development manager and half the applicants are salespeople.

In the non-profit sector, development means fundraising.

But that word means something completely different everywhere else, so your posting went out looking like a sales opening to everyone who read it.

And that's who applied. People with a sales background and zero non-profit experience.

The posting itself is fine but the titles don't carry the same meaning once you cross from corporate into nonprofit.

So if you hire off titles alone you'll keep landing people who can sell but have no clue why anyone gives to a cause.

Can't I just pay the grant writer when they actually bring a grant in?

Almost every founder who calls about their first fundraising hire asks some version of this.

They know for early founders money may be tight, so only paying when a grant comes in sounds fair. It's also against the code of ethics the whole profession works under, and any grant writer who's any good already knows it and won't take the job on those terms.

The thing founders from the corporate world don't expect is how long grant writing actually takes to pay off.

Your writer spends months getting to know your mission and figuring out which grants are even worth going after, and you're usually looking at nine months before any money comes through.

You're paying for those nine months whether the grant lands or not.

If you're a school waiting for me to find you a certified special ed teacher, I'll give you the math first.

Right now there isn't a single special education certified teacher in the New York market who isn't already working full time somewhere.

Not a single one who's job hunting.

The demand keeps climbing and the certified supply is already spoken for.

So the advice I give short-staffed schools is to advocate for yourselves.

Go to the state, show them exactly what the shortage looks like on the ground, and push them to let you fast-track a special ed teacher who's certified somewhere else.

There's no good reason a certification from across a state line should keep a qualified teacher out of a classroom that's desperate for one.

A candidate comes through with a resume that's basically everything you asked for, and you’re almost sold.

Before you send the offer, think about the room they'd be working from.

A lot of these nonprofits don't have the office you're picturing. You might be in the basement of a church, or sharing a floor with another org.

So liking the people you work with matters a lot in a place like this.

They've seen genuinely great people land somewhere like that and be miserable inside a month, because there's nowhere to go and someone's warming up fish two feet away from them.

This is why they do so much temp to perm.

You put the person in the actual room for a few weeks, and you’ll know pretty quick whether it works.

The one who looks best on paper and the one who's still there in a year aren't always the same person, and they'd rather you learn that in week two than in month four.
