Do you want to increase giving?

Do you want to increase giving at your nonprofit?

Here’s the most surefire guaranteed method I know.

I’ve never seen it not work.

What is it?

TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOUR EXISTING GIVERS.

That’s it.

✅ Ask them questions about their passions, perspectives, and preferences.

✅ Take the time to really listen to their answers.

✅Use what you learn to serve them better.

✅ Share regular updates and stories on the impact of their support.

✅ Keep them in the loop.

✅ Say thank you often in generous, fast, creative, and personal ways.

✅ Treat them like insiders.

✅ Help them grow as owners of your cause.

Do these things well, and giving will become a more joyful experience for your supporters.

Any time something becomes more joyful, people want to do more of it.

Do you want to increase giving?

Increase the joy people feel when they give, and the money will take care of itself.

Happy Friday Friends!
