My NextGen:Charity 2011 Interviews, Part III

Here are three more HD video interviews from the NextGen:Charity conference last November. Tony Martignetti Nonprofit Radio was a media sponsor and I got really thoughtful and insightful commentary from the 12 speakers I interviewed. Part I is here and Part II is here.

This is what I have for you this week:

  1. Make volunteering meaningful and accessible. There are highly skilled, busy people who want to help nonprofits. At Catchafire.org, which she founded and leads, they recognize that and make the connections. My interview with Rachael Chong.
  2. Branding–and other business lessons applicable to charities–from the founder of the very consistent brand, Ecko Enterprises. My interview with Marc Ecko.
  3. Nonprofit tips from the art of seduction and attraction, learned when he was on assignment for Rolling Stone to go undercover in a secret society of pickup artists. “Don’t open with your close.” His book is “The Game.” My interview with Neil Strauss.

Share My Optimism For 2012

"Bright Optimism" courtesy of Theen Moy on Flickr.
I can’t help it. I am optimistic at the beginning of each year. Join me. It feels great.

In January 2010–in the depths of recession–I thought the future was bright. I always think a new year holds great promise and cannot remember being disappointed.

In 2012, I’m genuinely excited to expand my keynote speaking to encourage more love so that we raise more money; broaden the reach of Tony Martignetti Nonprofit Radio through iTunes and at conferences; generate more Charity Registration clients, because the regulatory and compliance environments for charities will tighten as the boundaries between them and corporations blur; automate my Charity Registration work to make it so much easier and cheaper for our clients; perform more stand-up comedy than I did last year; and keep working toward my audacious dream of creating Bloomberg® for nonprofits.

What excites you for 2012? Please share your optimism.
