I have been described in a number of ways:
The Dream Whisperer
a Sponsorship Ninja
Gilligan trying to become Popeye
a Grampa Daring to Dream
...and more.
But, this 67-year-old prefers to describe myself as a "never-too-later"!
One thing for sure, while I may be a rookie sailor and on a steep learning curve in preparing for my solo crossing of the North Pacific, if there is one thing I know a lot about, it's fundraising. I've been doing it for 55 years! Started when I was twelve!
And I have helped 100's of people raise funds (amounting to millions of dollars) in order to realize their dreams.
Now, within the YouTube Creator world, I am causing a stir for not merely focusing on the thresholds to become monetized but instead focusing on the dream and the goal to procure sponsors!
Well before I hit the 1,000 subscriber mark, I had raised over $130,000 USD in cash and a further $25k in goods and services. And I did this by simply obeying and implementing the five rules of fundraising I have come to believe in, over five decades of doing this.
