Nonprofit Nation with Julia Campbell
Business:Non-Profit
The data on donor retention is not good. On average, over three quarters of new donors do not make a second gift. Also, the number of individual donors has dropped nearly 20 percent since the beginning of this century.
It is not difficult to believe that this large drop is connected to donors feeling unappreciated and even commoditized.
This purely transactional approach to donors is a particular turnoff to younger generations who are used to having lots of choices in everything they do, and need to be acknowledged and invited to become repeat donors.
In this episode, we talk about Allison's 3 steps to better donor relationships, and how to increase donor retention using available technology and tools.
