Loyalty does not necessarily correlate with planned gift likelihood. Wealth and large annual gifts do not correlate with planned giving likelihood. Very few people write as clearly, concisely and intelligently as Phyllis Freedman (aka- The Planned Giving Blogger). If you don’t subscribe to her blog , you can’t be serious about planned giving marketing. In her recent post, she outlines what Stelter found in their recent study. MORE
And get this: we found a positive correlation between email fundraising response rate and unsubscribe rate. That goes along with the old direct mail correlation of more response, more complaints. It helps to know if your efforts are producing well or poorly, and it's awfully hard to tell if all you have to look at are your own results. And that can be hard to know for online fundraising. MORE
I'm pretty sure those things are correlated. Here's the important thing to remember about the internet. It's. the internet. A place where negativity thrives. You see this often in the arts.

After being on so many fundraising teams, I’ve noticed what is done before an event directly correlates with how the fundraising event turns out. Let me show you what I mean. An Unsuccessful Vs.

Sometimes, we wanted to purchase the families some needed items, especially those with children. The items were usually diapers, wipes, formula, etc. MORE
