Linda Garnett & Sharon Dann

Corporate Partnership Specialists

It was refreshing to work with Linda and Sharon. They took the time to understand our needs and put together a program that would complement what we were already doing. Our team were able to take away many learnings and put them into action. I highly recommend Linda and Sharon to anyone who is looking to expand their way of thinking.

Signatory to FIA Code

The work with Red Nose has been invaluable to give us clarity on our assets, strengths and offering to corporate partners. Linda and Sharon’s insights and independent perspective allowed us to harvest our low value partners and be more assertive about our true value, giving us the confidence to secure bigger commitments from partners. We really liked their inclusive approach, helping to build understanding of partnerships across our team and get everyone working together for new partnerships.

Amy Johnston,
General Manager, Fundraising & Marketing, Red Nose

Smart, strategic and incredibly generous with their knowledge and experience in corporate partnerships and fundraising. They undertook a thorough assessment of current activities and helped us to build our future direction with tools and frameworks that will serve us well for years to come. The guidance was invaluable. Their input has enabled us to develop a more strategic approach to opportunities and has strengthened the understanding and value of corporate partnerships and fundraising within the organisation.
