Tony Martignetti has been in the nonprofit and podcast world for quite some time–long enough to have recorded over 225 episodes of his show “Nonprofit Radio.” This week, he shares with Beth some wisdom and lessons he has picked up along the way from over 500 interviews and his own personal experiences. And with over 10,000 downloads a week, people are listening. He talks about everything from fundraising to focusing on the core culture of an organization to clarity in social media.
