In the first instance we want to get to know you and discuss your concerns.  This meeting gives you the opportunity to meet us and decide whether you feel you like what we have to say and enables us to see if we can help you.  We make no charge for this first meeting.

Capital Appeals

We would discuss with you what is best for your charity, for example should you initially run a private appeal in order not to interfere with revenue, or should you run a public appeal? We can also discuss how your appeal should be structured, is it feasible and what needs to be put in place before the appeal begins.

Feasibility Studies

Feasibility studies are an essential tool for any charity considering a Capital Appeal. We have conducted feasibility studies for  Breakaway Salisbury, North London Hospice, The Art Trust, Symondsbury College and several theatre companies.

How to cope with a drop in Income

We can look at areas where you are missing out on income, where you are wasting resources, running events and fundraising projects which are not bringing in the required 4:1 cost ratio.  This often requires you to restructure your fundraising department and we can advise on this.

PR and Profile

Branding for a charity is very important.  Is your logo having an impact on the community?  Is it instantly recognisable?  Does all your literature on the charity match your logo and your logo match your literature?  Have you looked at market research to see where your standing is within your field?  Flory Charity Consultants has accomplished a 92% recognition for a local charity and would look at achieving this for your charity.  This is an extremely important area of fundraising – without a high profile you will not achieve good income.

Social Networking
