Year-End Appeals Deep Dive: A How-To Guide to Strategically Raise The Dollars You Need (Recording)
Recorded

Did you know that about 30% of all giving to nonprofits happens in the month of December? Like it or not, you have a lot riding on end-of-year fundraising! Maybe it’s making your budget, maybe it’s funding some unexpected expenses through the pandemic, or maybe you’re looking to start the new year in an even stronger position than ever before. There’s so much to do and the clock is ticking. 

When are you going to get the time to sit down and write that piece of direct mail, email, and social media appeals? Is that even where you should start? (HINT: NO!!) 

As a fundraiser just like you, I know the struggle of putting together your year-end fundraising strategy in a well-thought-out and effective way, and that’s exactly what I’m going to walk you through in this recorded webinar!

You’ll come alongside me as we work through a year-end communications plan that includes what really works to build engagement and momentum through the end of the year and raise those much-needed dollars. 

You don’t have to stress over the year-end strategy. Donors are ready to be generous; you just need to follow the right steps to help them to make the most meaningful gift they can. If you’ve never sent a year-end appeal, this recorded webinar is for you. If you haven’t started your year-end planning, this recorded webinar is for you. If you’re using the same strategy as last year, this recorded webinar is definitely for you! 

During This Nonprofit Webinar Recording, You Will Learn:

  • How to build an engagement strategy that converts low, medium, and high-engaged donors into making their best gift this year
  • How to develop a communications calendar (so you’re not annoying about asking every day!) that resonates with your existing and prospective donors
  • How to resurrect old relationships and re-engage them into current gifts
  • How to create an omnichannel strategy quickly and easily
  • How to write appeals that don’t leave money on the table

You’ll Get These BONUS Materials:

  1. Templates for social media, email, and direct mail that will save you dozens of hours of time.
