Income Generation & External Relations Reviews

The most holistic review your fundraising programme will ever have.

  • “AAW helped us identify the key strategic priorities for our fundraising and focused the team on delivering ambitious, yet achievable, goals over the next few years. Tobin is an intellectual powerhouse and brings strategic thinking and challenge to any process."

A forensic review of your programme

AAW’s Income Generation and Engagement Review is one of our core services that has been used by a who’s who of the sector. Organisations that have benefited range from some of the sector’s biggest names to ambitious, up-and-coming organisations looking to underpin their growth. The service is a testament to our expertise and commitment to excellence.

How does it work?

We conduct a forensic review of everything you have - from strategy documents, to your data and any external reporting (to name but a few). We analyse activity and performance, and benchmark against comparator organisations. We accompany this with in-depth interviews that engage with stakeholders across the board.

The outcomes

Our reviews delve into every aspect of your programme including:

  • Your strategy and KPIs.

  • Fundraising performance across all areas, channels, and departments.

  • Product performance.

  • Communications and marketing activity.

  • Resourcing, structures and culture.

  • Opportunities and risks to your programme.

Under the leadership of industry expert Tobin Aldrich and supported by the very highest level of senior consultants, we ensure that your review will transcend a mere evaluation. It will become a real catalyst for your senior leaders to strategise, innovate, and enhance your programme, and ensure you meet your objectives.
