Analyzing your diocesan market share

For the last 6 months, Above Goal has been researching diocesan capital campaign activity to better understand the trends that affect your business. On April 19th we held an invitation-only executive briefing to share the results and our insights. If you are interested in a replay of the webinar, click the button below.
