Top Takeaways

  • The Summit recordings will be available in a few weeks. I’ll let you know as soon as they’re out.
  • Humanizing improves your fundraising, donor relationships, and internal processes.
  • Your value proposition informs all your fundraising. Why should someone give to you, instead of someone else or not at all?
  • Think about your donor journeys. Where can you make things more human, personal, and engaging?
  • Sessions we specifically referenced:
    • Rob Peabody’s talk on Holistic Generosity
    • Lynne Wester’s talk on Donor Experiences
    • Nathan Hill’s talk on Value Proposition
    • Changing Tech, Managing Change panel
    • Multichannel Donor Cultivation panel
    • Build Better Culture panel
    • Rachel Specht’s workshop on A/B testing
    • Mallory Erickson’s workshop on From Ruts to Rituals
  • Remember: You don’t have to do everything at once. Pick one thing to try first. Start where you are, and build a little bit better.
