The Power of Peer-to-Peer Events and Why They're Here to Stay

Real Talk for the Non-Profit Event Pro

In this episode, your host Amy Milne gets real with Brian Carney, CEO of Blue Sea Foundation. The vision at Blue Sea is a more generous world where charities thrive and Brian is an incredibly passionate advocate for non-profits, specifically in the peer-to-peer fundraising space. Blue Sea offers national peer-to-peer fundraising events for social service charities to consider, including the well known Coldest Night of the Year. We all know that Amy could talk about the positive impact of P2P events forever and Brian is here for it! The two of them dive right in to why the power of P2P events is real, how non-revenue results are often overlooked and the fact that these events feed so many of your organization's other development programs. Buckle up for some soap box moments! Brian also wants all of us to start taking more risks in our marketing, even if it ends up offending some people - don't be scared! Listen to the end to hear both Brian and Amy's thoughts on new artificial intelligence technologies like ChatGPT and how you can start using them to your advantage. You don't want to miss it!
