Nonprofit Consulting
Are you ready to grow a consulting business that works for YOU?
- NFind more clients.
- NLand better clients.
- NCreate passive income.
- NBe valued for the expert you already are.
Many nonprofit consultants have big hearts and empty wallets. Why?
You’ve bought into the myth that the organizations you want to serve can’t afford to pay you what you’re worth.
You’ve never determined the true value of your time and expertise.
You’re an expert in serving nonprofit organizations but not in being a for-profit business owner.
We get it because we’ve been there too. But there is a better way!
You can achieve flexibility, freedom, income, and impact as a nonprofit consultant.
Imagine being an in-demand consultant in your area of expertise…
- Clients are knocking on your door – and you get to choose which organizations to work with based on what matters most to you, whether it’s mission, scope, or the impact you can make.
- Clients value your expertise – in how they respect your time, respond to your feedback, and pay you.
- You’re leveraging passive income strategies – whether it’s online courses or quarterly webinars – to serve more nonprofit clients than ever before.
Funding for Good works one-on-one with nonprofit consultants at every stage of business development.

Meet Your Business Coaches
“I founded Funding for Good in 2009 during the Great Recession. It definitely wasn’t easy. But it taught me that there is no perfect moment to start a business. There is only the moment when YOU are ready.
To succeed, I developed a mindset of experimentation and diversification of funding streams that still guides the company today. I’ve built a nimble team of expert consultants. We test out new services and products, quickly identify what works and what doesn’t, and prioritize activities that are both financially and personally rewarding.
“ learned many lessons about launching, running, and growing a business the hard way. To make it easier for the next class of entrepreneurs, Funding for Good now created our nonprofit consultant coaching, mentorship, and boot camp programs. We work with small business owners at every stage of growth, guiding them to build profitable and sustainable businesses that can weather economic ups and downs.”

Derek Floyd
Owner, Writing for Good
“I started my consulting business seven years ago and had reached a plateau. I knew I needed to invest in an outside expert to help me assess where I am and where I want to go. What I can say is, that my investment in Mandy and her team is frankly one of the best investments I have ever made.

“FFG Boot Camp – Best Business Decision 2022!… Making an investment in my consulting business by enrolling in FFG Boot Camp was a great decision for the growth of my business. Mandy and Marie (FFG) helped me restructure my business from communication and infrastructure to messaging and deliverables. Mandy helped with alignment of my fees and contracts to help ensure my business was growing in both efficiency and profitability. Looking forward to Boot Camp 2023!”

I’ve been in business for a little over seven years but hadn’t really done anything intentional or strategic to grow it. The boot camp seemed a perfect fit, because I love Mandy’s no-nonsense style. I didn’t need someone affirming my every wrong/ineffective decision. I needed someone with a solid track record of success who could be both supportive and honest.
Of the many things that wowed me, I would say the boot camp’s team approach is what impressed me most. The seamless integration of strategy and messaging sessions with Mandy and Marie helped ensure forward movement. When I needed to have my first-ever website designed, I didn’t have to go aimlessly searching. Mandy suggested someone and the quality was just as good as with Mandy and Marie.
Life interfered with my last few weeks, and I didn’t achieve all I set out to do at that time. This said, the foundation Mandy helped me build is as strong as ever. Despite having to take some time off, I was able to retrieve my notes and start moving forward in 2023.”
