Nearly all of us fear it. And yet it’s critical to our success. Asking for money. It makes even the stout-hearted quiver.\nBut now comes a book, Asking: A 59-Minute Guide to Everything Board Members, Staff and Volunteers Must Know to Secure the Gift. And short of a medical elixir, it’s the next best thing for emboldening you, your board members and volunteers to ask with skill, finesse … and powerful results.\nJerold Panas, who as a staff person, board member and volunteer has secured gifts ranging from $50 to $50 million, understands the art of asking perhaps better than anyone in America.\nHe has harnessed all of his knowledge and experience and produced what many are already calling a landmark book.\nWhat Asking convincingly shows — and one reason staff will applaud the book and board members will devour it — is that it doesn’t take stellar communication skills to be an effective asker. Nearly everyone, regardless of their persuasive ability, can become an effective fundraiser if they follow Jerold Panas’ step-by-step guidelines.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1889102172\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1889102172.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Panas, Jerold\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
