Through your guidance, you enabled us to jump start our sponsorship and partnership efforts. In summary, you have helped us revamp the IMA’s approach to sponsorship, streamlining and packaging key benefits to attract partners, and designing effective programs of interest to the corporate sector. We can clearly attribute several new partners in the five and six figure investment level to your business development experience and expertise. I appreciate your insight into many difficult situations and your ability to always arrive at unique and effective solutions.

Lewis Flax worked as a development consultant at Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) and his principal contributions were in helping to create and implement a strategy of increasing corporate sponsorship and partnerships for CADCA. Together we identified likely corporate partners, developed tailored marketing and engagement approaches, and conducted a multi-year outreach campaign.

We developed relationships with a broad group of companies, in many cases initially securing their participation with CADCA’s annual philanthropic campaign, and then expanding their involvement through other events, communications and training initiatives. As a result we raised record annual revenues for CADCA, with total corporate revenue surpassing $1M annually.

More significantly, these corporate partnerships provided CADCA with the resilience to weather the recession and continue to provide stable leadership for its coalition affiliates. Lewis is an incisive consultant and a wise counselor who keenly understands non profit development and organizational dynamics.

You have provided a lot of great concepts and new approaches to old practices that will be invaluable moving forward.
