One of the more unique things Dave has done is to assist nonprofits with enhancing their GuideStar Profiles.

Nonprofits are either owned by nobody or owned by everybody. Your nonprofit is accountable to the general public so all tax returns are public information.

Having an up-to-date and complete GuideStar Profile is a great benefit to nonprofits. It gives funders a central place to go for many types of information. GuideStar is one of the first places many funders go to vet a nonprofit before considering them for a donation or grant.

He is skilled at writing these profiles and can help nonprofits portray a complete but succinct, easy-to-read, profile.

Being a Certified Case Study Specialist, Dave can interview clients and their customers to craft interesting stories. Businesses call them Case Studies; for a nonprofit, the term Donor Profile or Client Success Story might be more appropriate.

A Case Study is generally 2-4 pages long.

Dave wrote his first web page in April 1994 when the World Wide Web was only 6 months old! Needless to say, he has over 25 years of experience building websites.

Now as a freelance writer, he conducts in-depth Website Audits, particularly for nonprofits and small businesses.

Over the last 40 years, Dave has served on nine nonprofit boards and is an expert in Nonprofit Governance.

As a Certified Nonprofit Accounting Professional, he can help your nonprofit with accounting practices, Chart of Accounts, and Financial Disclosure requirements. Nonprofits are either owned by nobody or owned by everybody. Your nonprofit is accountable to the general public so all tax returns are public information.

Do you have a Sales Team and everybody is doing something different with mixed results? Do you have up-to-date One-Sheets,  consistent Call Scripts, and documented FAQs? 

What do you do to keep in touch with customers after the sale? 

Dave can help you with sales enablement and customer retention tools and techniques!

With Dave’s engineering and computer science background, he pays great attention to detail. Although he never had the job title of “Writer,” for over 40 years, writing was always a part of his job – Technical manuals, technical courses, conference papers, and for 25 years, web copy.

A fresh pair of eyes can help clear up your prose, find and eliminate errors, and ensure your writing is clear of distracting mistakes. Dave can proofread that critical presentation or do in-depth copy editing of a document to make it really understandable to somebody not familiar with your industry jargon.

Although Dave is neither a novelist nor a nonfiction book writer, he can take your raw manuscript, proofread, copy edit, organize and convert it to e-Book format.
