There’s little doubt in my mind that, when it comes to ‘retention’, the powers-that-be in most organizations will view any serious efforts to improve donor loyalty and commitment (retention) as disruptive. In turn, they will either deliberately or subconsciously move to subvert any efforts at improvement. All organisms contain antibodies — cells in their immune systems that identify, attack and neutralize foreign objects. The same holds true for nonprofit organisms.

Ace fundraiser Willis Turner commented on the post with skepticism: “As usual, lots of interesting information about engagement but not a word about money.

A truly sustainable funding model is the holy grail of nonprofits. A great way to achieve that goal is by making sure you have a diversified revenue stream that includes individual donations, fees for service, and grant funding. A healthy organization can stack up these funding sources for a strong foundation that supports their mission.

When I worked at the local food bank, I had a major donor who revealed an unexpected point of view that seems appropriate for Earth Day. Here’s the story. This lovely lady had been a regular donor to the food bank for many years. One day I invited her to lunch to get to know her better. I asked her why she liked the food bank, expecting to hear a story of personal connection or compassion, like the stories I heard from lots of other supporters.

Obama's inauguration is a huge change for our country. The crowd in DC and the record-breaking count of TV audiences shouts that. Among many, there's a palpable sigh of relief today, and a massive return of hope. Less comfort for others; but still recognition of a huge change. So YOUR MARKETING has to change with it. Effective communication is based on your understanding of whom you're having a discussion with, and her perspective, passions and needs are.

What do people do on social networks and blogs? They "talk" of course! They talk about what is important and what is mundane. More frequently, however, those conversations are directed, not to friends or family, but to the people who represent brands. These chats are about service and product concerns.

A year ago this month, along with millions of others world-wide, I donated online in response to the terrible earthquake that hit Haiti. However, rather than chose a single charity out of the wide range running appeals I decided to give £20 to each of the UK’s ten leading relief and development organisations to see just how the experience of being an online donor varied across the different brands. And vary it certainly did.

If you’ve ever made an online video before, you know the level of work that goes into it. But creating a compelling video is just the beginning of the process. Getting your video seen—and by the right people—takes just as much work, if not more. Crossing your fingers that your video will “go viral&# is a bad idea for a number of reasons , not the least of which is that you learn absolutely nothing about what works and what doesn’t.

If it doesn’t do that, the Post concludes, it doesn’t work. I’ve heard fundraisers say the same thing. But there is more to the story.
