Derrick Spencer, Associate Director of Development
"The team at Hudson Ferris really helped our frontline development officers to instill a more disciplined, consistent approach to their solicitations, articulate a clearer and more compelling case, and be more anticipatory and nimble when encountering donor questions and objections."
Lance King, Chief Development Officer
"The trainings provided valuable, more realistic space for our team to test and refine how they approach donor meetings. The immediate feedback from the Hudson Ferris experts helped us to learn quickly and make the most of this time."
Nicole Morgan, Senior Director of Development
"Hudson Ferris' solicitation simulation helped me develop a stronger pitch for our organization. This simulation is a must-have for any non-profit hoping to grow and scale its impact."
Liam Elkind, Co-Founder
"Ed and his team provided both the 'academic' background around certain techniques and - even more practically - the experiential training to make our 'asking' more effective and successful. I recommend them without reservation."
Terry Bowman, CEO
"Their solicitation training sessions and pitch simulations have been invaluable to our team. From TKH leadership, to board members, and new staff, Hudson Ferris has taught us best practices when it comes to fundraising. The tips they provide are so helpful in growing our donor base and ensuring messaging is aligned across the org."
