While the email is not client-branded, Care2 will consult with the client so that the email content is relevant and accurate.
If the person is already a Care2 member, the fields of this petition form will be already pre-populated with their contact information.
* This slide illustrates Care2’s method of using strong permission marketing in its lead generation campaigns for nonprofit clients. This is the point at the end of the engagement funnel in which the Care2 member has taken many previous, pre-qualifying actions, and now is urged to take one more extra step of signing up for the client’s email list (in this case it is Consumers Union). If they sign up, the client will pay Care2 for the lead acquired. If they don’t sign up, then the client does not owe Care2 anything, even though the client will have received a lot of branding promotion and the advocacy value of the petition campaign already. Care2 guarantees how many signups will be obtained and delivered to the client, and by what date, and at a pre-agreed upon price per lead delivered. This is Results Based Pricing.
