Amidst the hub-bub of annual reports, strategic planning and grantseeking calendar development, your focus as a fundraiser is out in front of you to the year ahead.
But as your attention shifts from this year to the next, are you maintaining and building your relationships with donors as well as you could be? Are you saying exactly what your supporters need to hear such that they'll become repeat donors?
Join Network for Good's Katya Andresen and Care2's Jocelyn Harmon as they delve into effective donor cultivation and ideas for effective messaging:
- What (and how often) to say to donors to keep them interested in your work-and their impact on it-as you enter the new year
- How to make your follow-up personal
- What vehicles are most appropriate to say thank you
- An overview of the four must-have pieces of text for your follow-up
