Apra-IL Webinar: Prospecting Outside Major Metropolitan Areas
In Illinois, much of the state's wealth, activity, and fundraising community is understandably concentrated in and around Chicago — the United States' third-largest metro area and the largest in the Midwest. While Chicagoland's 9 million residents account for more than 65% of Illinois's population, that still leaves one-third of the state residing outside its major population center — a figure that includes many colleagues from our Apra-IL community. Even though most states' dominant cities might get most attention, how does prospecting differ once you exit the major the metros?
The Apra-IL Board is pleased to present this virtual panel discussion on "downstate" prospecting. Comprising the panel will be three Illinois-based prospect research professionals who reside and support institutions located outside the Chicago area. Discussion topics will include:
...and more! Whether you are working for a non-metropolitan institution in Illinois (or in another state), or if you work for a city-based institution and frequently find yourself interfacing with prospects in rural areas, this panel webinar is for you!
