NOW RESCHEDULED: Earned Revenue for Nonprofits Program November 21st

NOW RESCHEDULED for November 21st Mohawk Valley Nonprofit Leaders Group Hosts: Striving for Self-Sufficiency, Earned Revenue & Entrepreneurial Strategies [Utica]  November 21st   9:00 AM to 11:30 AM We apologize, but an unforeseen issue has arisen and the September 19th Program has been rescheduled for November 21st.  Any questions, contact us.  Thank you for your understanding. Presented by Doug Sauer, CEO, NYCON REGISTER  There was a time where the most stable and viable nonprofits were those that relied on the traditional business model of contributions and government grants. Dependency on the "market" forces of philanthropic and taxpayer support is increasingly being viewed a limitation regarding sustainability as often they are outside of the influence and control of the nonprofit. Achieving self-sufficiency involves a third leg to the revenue stool - earned revenue, where there is a direct exchange of a product, service or privilege for monetary value. Participants in this workshop will have an opportunity to discuss and learn about earned revenue and entrepreneurial strategies - the pros, cons, and preparation and cultural shifts necessary to proceed down the entrepreneurial path. Date: November 21st, 2013 Time: 9:00am-11:30am Fee: $10.00 at the door (check payable to The Community Foundation of Oneida & Herkimer Counties) Light refreshments will be provided.
