Description Reviews DescriptionSince 2003, I have been studying fundraising. I’ve learned how to raise money with direct mail, grants, phone-a-thons, sponsorships, and more.
Throughout all of that time, my nonprofit clients would ask me, “But how can we get ongoing operational support?” And I never had an answer. Until today.
Let’s face it. If you’re wondering how to create deeper connections with your donors, creating and branding a monthly giving or sustainer program can keep your nonprofit on your donor’s radar. It’s not just an opportunity to help your cause. It’s a way to steward your donors and make them feel special.
Monthly giving can provide a steady income stream for your nonprofit that will not be subject to the whims of funders or corporate sponsorship budgets.
What is monthly giving?
Monthly giving is also known as sustainer giving. It is when a donor automatically gives you money every month directly from their bank account.
Why would you want to start a monthly giving program?
When a donor becomes a monthly donor, it’s easier for you to help them feel like they’re part of a special club, and help them become more involved with your nonprofit. When they become monthly donors, you can send them reminders on what their donations are helping to accomplish, and help them feel good for being involved. Because of Robert Cialdini’s principle of reciprocity, when you give your monthly giving program a unique name and treat these donors with extra care, they will want to give to you even more.
Plus, if you’re looking to start your major gifts program, monthly donors can become major donors simply by giving just a little more each month.
But it’s tough out there these days. It seems like everyone has a nonprofit and everyone’s asking for money all the time!
How do you stand out from the crowd and make your monthly giving program really shine?
This 5 week e-course is all about how you can start your own monthly giving program, stop chasing grants, and start resting easy, knowing your monthly giving program will sustain your operations for a long time to come!
Monthly giving pays off.According to a recent article in The Nonprofit Times, monthly donors have some of the strongest retention rates in the business. They write, “Retention among donors giving one-time gifts is between 41 and 50 percent, while donors enrolled in a monthly giving program are retained 70 to 80 percent of the time.”
In a nutshell, what are some of the benefits of monthly donors?
- You will dramatically increase your annual income
- Build a better relationship with your donors
- Donors will keep giving longer
- Monthly giving revenue is predictable
- Lower your fundraising costs
- Income will grow over time
- Monthly giving is convenient
Does all of this sound good to you? Yes?
