[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It’s possible that the “consultants” are compensated only as a percentage of grants received, [/b]but even so, they lose any shred of credibility based on their press release and “projected” yield. What grants are they expecting? As a PP wrote, hard to imagine a less grant-friendly time for education. [/quote] That would be a violation of the Association of Fundraising Professionals' Code of Ethics. I'd run very fast from any consultant who wants a percentage of funds raised. I actually get a number of potential clients who want to that sort of compensation and I refuse to consider it; other fundraising professionals I know also work strictly at a flat or hourly rate. Which is not to say I haven't heard of people still trying to do percentage compensation, but they're unusual these days and usually a sign that they aren't on the up and up, imo.[/quote]
