I take responsibility for initiating and following up on outreach—so business development actually happens every week.
This is targeted, relationship-aware outreach designed for long-term partnerships and real revenue, not high-volume automated lead gen.
I'm Sam Ciaramitaro, and since 2011, I’ve worked at the intersection of sales and marketing—both creating six-figure digital marketing campaigns and closing half of a million dollars as a salesperson. At the same time, my passion took me deeper into nonprofit, both as a volunteer and a leader.
This means I’m uniquely prepared to bridge your growth goals with those of the nonprofit leaders you serve.
We may be a good fit if you’re a professional services firm dedicated to partnering with nonprofit organizations, especially in the areas of:
Let’s meet and answer these three questions together:
I’ll prepare the results of our chat into an actionable Pipeline Plan. The conversation and the plan are yours with my compliments, regardless of who implements it.
We agree upfront on a clear, measurable target, and review progress regularly during a 60-day engagement. Iteration is expected, especially early on as things ramp up. Results typically skew later in the cycle as targeting, messaging, and cadence gain traction.
Compensation is typically split between a modest monthly retainer and a performance-based component tied to results (which is most often defined by meetings where the right contact shows up). Revenue-based commissions are possible in some cases. I structure compensation so it fits your firm’s economics and delivers a meaningful return.
No. Engagements typically run in 60-day intervals and are renewable, with an early-exit option built in. This keeps the arrangement low-risk and performance-oriented.
I’m an experienced sales and marketing consultant with dual fluency in performance-driven sales and nonprofit liaising. I don’t do high-volume, automated prospecting. I focus on lower-volume, higher-touch outreach where targeting, tone, and judgment matter as much as outcomes. Think of me as a high-end door-opener and conversation-starter—well suited for purpose-driven revenue generation. Practically, this means I handle outreach and business development to uncover opportunities and set up meaningful conversations with the right people.
Methods vary by context, but typically include thoughtful phone calls, highly targeted emails, coordinated meeting scheduling, and (in some cases) live networking or in-person visits. The emphasis is always on relevance, discretion, and follow-through.
Yes, on a limited basis. I consult on areas that directly support ultimate outcomes, such as messaging, offers and door-openers, targeting, packaging and pricing, lifecycle operations, and re-engaging existing accounts or past prospects. Consulting is selective and designed to improve real-world results.
