Описание: Only 19% of first-time donors give a second gift. This statistic shows us we have a significant problem in the nonprofit industry.
Can you imagine if a major corporation only had 1 in 5 customers return for additional purchases? If a retail store chain lost over 80% of its new customers? If a restaurant only had 19% of customers come back a second time? None of them would stay in business. No one would accept that number. And we shouldnt either.
Jeremy Reis spent two years researching and testing to identify the six attributes of a Magnetic Nonprofit. A Magnetic Nonprofit is one that attracts the right people to become supporters and volunteers. In this book, youll learn how your nonprofit organization can become magnetic.
Youll be guided through these six attributes of becoming a Magnetic Nonprofit:
- Transparency: Openly sharing information
- Thankful: Shows gratitude
- Tenured: Longevity of an organization or ability to project expertise
- Timely: How quickly a nonprofit responds to an external situation or communications with donors and volunteers
- Testimony: An affinity to a cause because of a personal experience or experience of someone closely connected to the donor
- Tribe: People in your circle of support
These six characteristics apply not only to donors but also to employees and volunteers. When these six characteristics are perfectly aligned, your organization could enter into a supporters top three organizations. The top three organizations are the ones that come to mind first when someone wants to support a cause with resources such as time, money, or even working for the organization.
Jeremy Reis has over a decade of nonprofit marketing and fundraising experience, including serving as the Senior Director of Marketing at Food for the Hungry (FH), an international relief and development organization. In the last five years, FH has almost tripled their private income and the number of active donors has grown significantly. In fact, at the time of publication, the organization has over 110,000 active monthly donors with an 83% multi-year donor retention rate.
