PILLAR 1.0 OF INTERNET FUNDRAISING
Don’t forget to ask.
Where’s your button?
Put your Donate Now button everywhere. Always be asking.
The Donate Now button
• More pervasive than a magazine subscription card
• Less annoying – never ends up in your lap
Donors love monthly giving, especially online
Go where your donors are
PILLAR 2.0 OF INTERNET FUNDRAISING
Get data, make mistakes
If you’ve ever done off-line printing, you can do online too…
• Don’t be good at technology.
