MID-LEVEL MASTER SESSIONS

There are likely hundreds (if not thousands) of annual fund donors who could increase their donation to a mid-level gift in 2020. But how do you know which ones are most interested in giving more? And how do you intentionally cultivate them?

At Pursuant, we want to help you create a thriving mid-level program with the right prospects and processes. That’s why we’ve created a Mid-Level Master Series of six unique webinars, each designed to tackle a specific giving program issue in depth.

For each interactive 30 minute session, Pursuant’s in-house mid-level experts will equip you with actionable tools and insights for your organization’s unique needs.

IV. Storytelling that Moves Donors to Upgrade Their Giving

Watch Recording

When we think about what builds a relationship between an organization and its most loyal donors, it’s often the organization’s ability to deliver its story in a way that moves individuals to become involved and give. This is true from the annual fund to the major gifts. In order to move our loyal, mid-level donors, we need to captivate them with unique stories, relevant to them. When we do, we build trust and loyalty.

In this Mid-Level Master Series, Pursuant’s Kristin Priest will explore your burning donor upgrade questions:

  • How do you tell your story to the mid-level?
  • What stories and programs resonate well with this key audience?
  • How can we better tell our story and, therefore, build relationships with these donors?

V. Creating Stellar Donor Experiences Amidst Uncertain Times

As an agency built by fundraisers, many of the members of our team have weathered difficult fundraising storms. We believe that now is a time to be thoughtful about stewardship and how to iterate fundraising strategies during uncertain times.

Now more than ever, strong donor experiences and stewardship are important to keeping donors engaged and supportive of your work. Tomorrow, we will sit down with Hilary Noon, Pursuant’s EVP of Analytics, Insights and Experience and former American Cancer Society analytics leader along with Whitney Norman, Pursuant’s Client Solutions Director and former fundraiser at March of Dimes.

The good news is that with today’s technology we can understand our donor’s DNA like never before. Analytical capabilities and business intelligence are transforming the way we understand our supporters. With the right tools in place, we can then develop fundraising and marketing approaches that tap into our donors’ motivations and keep them engaged even during times of uncertainty.

  • What experience am I trying to create that drives revenue?
