- Economy a hot button now and it seems to be sort of the underlying theme in most presentations these days. Forcing organizations to change the ways of thinking and operating In our experience, a lot of gloom and doom, but we are already starting to see that organizations that are forging ahead and continuing to invest in their mission are beginning to emerge Open the floor for opinions on how the economy has affected overall giving
- 1. We’ve also seen a significant increase in Online Donations. Not sure how much that is connected to the economy but people are more inclined than ever to find out about you and support your mission online To audience: Have you stopped giving? Have you changed the way you give? 2. Giving is down Average gift size is down Number of givers is down While we are only expecting fundraising to go down about 1% from the previous year, in typical years fundraising grows 4%. That means, we are working with a 5% deficit You have to be able to maximize your relationships with the donors you have so you can keep them Donor Fatigue You must be able to keep supporters engaged and inspired without over soliciting them You must be able to better target them for the appeals they are most likely to give to Increased competition Differentiate yourself by personalizing contacts you have with your supporters Position yourselves for the turn of the economy Increased need for services Despite the changes in the economy, you don’t get a pass Your community will need you now, more than ever and you are forced to do more with less Increased need for accountability Provide excellent stewardship to keep those relationships strong People are only going to keep giving if they know their gifts are being put to good use
- Regardless of the size of your organization, you are probably looking for a software solution for one – if not all– of these five reasons. With the economy the way it is, now’s NOT the time to hunker down. Nonprofits need to increase activity so they can thrive during this recession “ Do more with less” has always been the mantra of nonprofits, but now it’s even more than that. You need to drive results with fewer resources than you have ever had. Therefore you need to work smarter and more efficient And make the work you do count… Finally, you need to know what’s working, so you can replicate it and toss what doesn’t work
- For as long as there has been fundraising, friend-raising, membership drives, or any other types of nonprofit development, there have been two cornerstone strategies -> acquisition and cultivation. Acquisition is the process of adding new potential supporters to your list. This has been done in a variety of ways, from sending some form of direct marketing communication to passing out business cards at cocktail parties. The point has always been to spread the word, to explain your organization’s reason for being in a nutshell, to encourage prospects to learn more about you, and to motivate them to take an action that will benefit your mission. Once acquisition has occurred, an organization has a choice. The supporter can be released back into the pond, to be scooped up again when the next action is needed. Or, the supporter can be cultivated into having a larger and more meaningful role with the organization. Most development professionals agree that retaining donors is more efficient and ultimately more lucrative for the organization AND for the supporter…
- But in today’s economic climate cultivation of loyalty is even more important to your organization, because this is the way to success during economic hardship. But, how do you, as an organization, keep your supporters loyal to your cause? Especially when there is research out there showing that 90% of donors drop off before the 5 th renewal campaign??????? And 60% of donors give once and never give again to an organization????
- To truly focus on donor retention, you need to be thinking about the people BEHIND the money—not the money itself. In order to improve donor loyalty—keeping donors giving more often over a longer period of time—we need to spend more energy on giving them what they need to stay loyal to your cause.
- Provided that your buying what I’m saying, the next question will be, “Ok, so what do we need to do in order to keep our supporters loyal?” The answer is pretty simple and straightforward. Of course, getting to the information you need to make it happened can be difficult…. unless you have the technology to support it. Penelope Burke, CEO of Cygnus Applied Research, has broken this down pretty simply with statics to support. While the vast majority of donors may say they appreciate recognition, what they really want is: Prompt, personalized acknowledgement of their gifts Confirmation their gifts are being used as intended 46% of donors say they will stop giving to a charity if they don’t get quality information about how their gift is used. It is hard for them to see how they are going to make a difference if they cannot see where their money has gone Measurable results on their gift’s work prior to being asked for another contribution 93% said they would definitely give the next time they are asked provided they get meaningful information Easy enough, right? Well let’s talk about a few of the things that are working against us as well as some of the things that are shaping the current landscape. But don’t get too nervous, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
- Despite all that, you’re not getting a pass. You still need to acquire and cultivate supporters to survive. But the good news is it’s the responsibility of technology partners to the nonprofit sector to help, and eTapestry is here to help you succeed!
- Your technology partner can provide the tools you need to support the activities that ensure the success of your strategies. Specifically, technology should help you both acquire and retain supporters by educating and engaging them as well as by inspiring them and stewarding them. eTapestry can offer you both of the tool sets for acquisition and cultivation. We call this cycle TrueCRM and it succeeds, in short, because it lets you treat supporters like individuals… even if you have millions of them to manage. TrueCRM™ Means: Creating online and offline experiences that build meaningful connections with constituents Making participation and involvement with your organization easy, fun, and compelling for supporters Providing tools that enable supporters to share stories and become deeply involved in the mission community Ensuring every interaction you have with constituents respects their entire history with your organization and demonstrates your appreciation for their involvement
- TRUE CRM: Your Internet strategy should incorporate everything from your online face (website), to your online communication (email), to your online giving (ecommerce), to the heart of your system – the database . When working with our eTapestry customers on an Internet strategy, we can happily tell them there is good news, and then there is better news. The good news is that we can take any one aspect and help them implement it. The better news is that we can make all the pieces work together in a coordinated, seamless fashion offering a True CRM (constituent relationship management) Solution.
- As you can see, there are many ways to interact with those who are visiting your website. You want to be able to give your visitors something but also get something from them in return. Imagine how big your donor base would be if you had the contact information for everyone who visited your website. A simple ‘ask’ is sometimes all you need.
- If you build it, will they come? Having a website is first priority Key steps to building/maintaining a successful website
- In our presentations and speaking opportunities around the country, we have found this to be true almost everywhere we go. We all use – and like to use – the Internet for ecommerce, but we often don’t give our donors the same opportunity.
- … built, hosted, and maintained by eTapestry plus it matches the look and feel of your website.
- Once the donor completes the donation page, their gift transaction is sent to our processing partner IATS-Ticketmaster, who verifies the gift and notifies the donor. All while the transaction is tracked back to your eTapestry database.
- Customer Case Study
- Demo – show transaction from ecomm to database and record tracking.
- Additional tools include a spam analyzer to insure high deliverability, as well as a scheduler.
- Surveys show one of the most common requests of fundraisers is the ability to get useful reports - easily. We provide a variety of pre-built reports – not an overwhelming number of them, but those that we know are most used by nonprofits. So lets see how they work. Say you would like to get a report of some of your top donors.
- Want to learn more about your top donors? Simply conduct your search in the eTapestry database and double click on the donors name. From here you will be able to see everything about your donor, including the last time they gave, how much the gift was for, where it was allocated to, email newsletters your donor has received etc.
- Part of better recordkeeping is being able to manage all the different complexities of relationships, interactions, communications, and future events. eTapestry is designed to be your central data source for all these things.
- As a fundraiser, you understand the value of relationships, and the value of knowing how donors are connected so we have created relationship links for each account in your database.
- That link lets you identify – and see – who this account has a relationship with. It can be any variety of relationships you see here.
- Which displays a “relationship tree” allowing you to see how your database accounts are connected to each other. If you are doing major gift fundraising, this is essential to your success.
- This quote explains the exact idea behind our journal page. The journal page details every interaction I have had with an account
- We have all been using Microsoft Outlook for years in our daily emails. We have simplified the communication efforts when using eTapestry with our Outlook Integration offering. This module allows you verify the account you are communicating with and the communication it is automatically added to the appropriated journal in your eTapestry database directly from Outlook.
- From this page I can add new items regarding contacts with this account. In this case I see I had a lunch meeting with John and I need to schedule a follow-up. So I choose calendar item from my list…
- … and it allows me to set an appointment for a follow up meeting.
- My calendar events also display on my welcome page when I log in, alerting me to the activities I have scheduled.
- Excel is not a database!!!
- We have talked a lot about the cultivation process and relationship management but equally important is data services. All the relationship building in the world isn’t going to get you the donations needed to be successful if you don’t have accurate data. eTapestry has teamed up with the experts of data service, Target Analytics, to offer you first class tools. 1. Donor Acquisition and Development We can help you not only keep more of your current donors, but help you find new ones and build lifelong relationships. 2. Prospect Research There are a lot of suspects in your database. How do you know which are the best prospects for you? Our prospect segmentation and wealth identification services can remove the guesswork. 3. Donor Performance and Benchmarking How do your donors measure up? Whether you want to see how you’ve done so far with DonorCentrics, how you compare to the industry with the National Index, or plan for the future with our Scenario Builders, we can help you find the answers. 4. Data Enrichment Services Keeping up with your donors can be a full-time job. We’re here to help with services that cover the spectrum from updating your contact info to identifying matching gifts you might be missing.
- Now that you know all about the tools that can help you succeed in your fundraising efforts we have award winning support specialist that can answer any of the questions you may have while utilizing all these tools. Not to mention for your convenience we have several ways to contact your customer support representative.
- The foundation for good support however, is good training. We developed our training programs to be very different from traditional software training. Instead of force feeding you as much information as possible in a short classroom setting, we do our training online. It allows you to learn at a pace that suits you. It allows you to select the specific areas you need to focus on, and it gives you unlimited access. (review class options)

- We have used the word “TrueCRM” a lot through out this presentation, I hope now that you have a better understanding of what CRM is and we have successful shown you how eTapestry can help provide this solution. To Recap, TrueCRM is a single solution, one that combines these components into one so you can cross-reference this information, eliminate data silos, and really start to use this information and knowledge you are gaining to better align your strategies with where you want to be in the future. It’s important to note though that this integration is not merely data flowing back and forth between your data base, website donors etc. As demonstrated, it’s what you do with the knowledge you gain and how you turn it into action that makes an impact. Let me show you an example of True CRM and how important it is to see a complete, holistic view of your supporters.
- Curiosity is a powerful motivating force. Particularly in this economy, where organizations are all wondering if they’re weathering the storm better or worse than their peers. Our new campaign taps into that inherent curiosity, with the promise of seeing how you measure up. <notes for presenter> Go to live webpage for eTap promo and submit a request for benchmark reporting Run a mock report to show quickness and accountability of the reporting.
