Unsure about which fundraising CRM software to choose? Here are 12 steps to find one that will work for for your organization.
A case for support is an essential fundraising tool. It communicates the “raison d’etre” for a major fundraising initiative: asserting a strong, consistent rationale for why an organization is launching an initiative at a particular moment in time, and why donors should invest. It is the guiding document that informs all messages and materials related to the initiative: from talking points to website content to major donor proposals.
Successful campaigns are rooted in careful planning. It’s essential to lay the foundational building blocks early in the process. This includes generating the big ideas that will inspire donors’ most meaningful gifts, conducting a feasibility study, and evaluating your nonprofit CRM to make sure it’s serving your needs.
Capital campaigns can last five years or longer. Meanwhile, the average tenure of a nonprofit executive director or college president is approximately six years.
