Trends and Tips to Optimize Your Monthly Giving Program 

In 2022, monthly giving revenue surged 11% – and we’ve seen that trend continue to play out among our clients this year as well. But for many nonprofits (especially those on the smaller side, with limited staff and time), it can be a challenging undertaking. In this session, we’ll share the tactics, strategies, and channels we’ve used to help our clients set actionable goals to grow their sustaining online revenue, start or expand a monthly giving program, and build a solid base of monthly donors.

FUNdraising: How to Balance Urgency with Hope and Delight

We all know that urgency and need are an essential part of fundraising. But sometimes, all that urgency in your online appeals and fundraising asks can leave your audience feeling like the world is on the verge of collapse. In this session, the Adler Planetarium, one of our incredible clients, will discuss how we worked together to adapt their brand’s voice to add creativity to their fundraising messaging. You’ll walk away with practical tips on how to walk the line between urgent need and compelling, interesting content.

Stewarding Your Supporters with Engaging Cultivation Content

We all know that relationship-building is an essential part of any successful fundraising program. But in practice, that might not bear out at your nonprofit depending on the time and resources you have available, which often leads to donor fatigue and a broader pool of lapsed donors. In this session, we’ll discuss our work with a client to diversify their messaging and create innovative streams of multichannel content to engage and steward their supporters and inspire them to give again and again.

What should I say to decision-makers to help me make the case for boosting our email volume? Learn all that and more in this session.
