How to innovate

Here's Guy Kawasaki on innovation. This 8-minute video is worth watching:

(You can also see it here on YouTube.

Here are Guy's points:

Make meaning
Make a mantra (not a mission statement)
Jump to the next curve
Roll the dice
Don't worry, be crappy
Let 100 flowers blossom
Polarize people
Churn, baby, churn
Niche thyself
Follow the 10-20-30 rule
Don't let the bozos get you down

If you're serious about raising money from donors, you need to get serious about donors. More than ever before, donors are insisting that you share power with them, not treating them like passive ATMs. This blog is about the ways you can do that -- and the rewards that await you and your donors when you do.

DonorPower Blog is penned by Greg Fox. Greg has spent 25 years in the DM industry — 22 in direct fundraising, and 3 doodling on the back of campaign analysis spreadsheets. Greg is ably assisted from time to time by a police line-up of guest “artists”, DM pros all, who like to pose as blogatorialists when the sun goes down. You can reach this blog at

A great partner for the nonprofit that wants to get donor-powered and grow revenue like crazy!
