Is it any wonder that the average length of stay for a nonprofit development director is 18 months?
![Page 18: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
So, what are five things that the
LDD (you!) can do to increase your
ROI?
![Page 19: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
1. Love your donors
![Page 20: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Recognize that, in everything you
do, donor-centricity is key.
![Page 21: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What is one of the best ways to truly
“get” donor-centricity?
![Page 22: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Create a detailed donor profile
![Page 23: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What is her level of education?
Where does she shop?
What is her income level?
Where does she live?
What other organizations does she contribute to?
![Page 24: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Drill it down ...Is she married?
Does she have
children? Ages?
What does she
do for fun?
What’s her political affiliation?
![Page 25: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Creating a detailed donor profile is the first step towards donor centricity
![Page 26: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“Getting” donor-centricity applies to every medium
![Page 27: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2. Practice WOW stewardship
![Page 28: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
A first time gift is like a first date. Not a
marriage proposal.
![Page 29: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

“90% of donors who start contributing to a particular cause stop giving by the fifth renewal request.”Penelope Burk
“Eight of 10 first-time donors do NOT make a second gift.” Adrian Sargeant

So why would you waste a prime opportunity to engage your
donor on a letter that reads like this?

If we’re honest with ourselves, this
is how most nonprofit
organizations are communicating.

Remember the power of words - and learn how to
use them
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.

Other ways to WOW
•Make it a habit to personally thank one donor a day.
•Create a WOW calendar. Instead of the typical “card” occasions where you’ll be lost in the “me too,” send a card on Thanksgiving or Valentines Day.
•Make it a practice to survey donors regularly, even monthly.

3. Begin a monthly giving program
![Page 36: Fundraising success](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b2c4204a795981068b45da/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
37% of donors in the UK are
monthly givers

“... generally speaking on an annual basis each person that converts to monthly giving gives two to three times more money, some of them even more.”

“If an organization is converting 1 to 2% of their file a year, by the end of a decade around 10 to 20% of their donors would be on a monthly giving program.”

Think always of the lifetime value
of the donor.

The key is to begin
Monthly giving must be nurtured; it’s not something that you put out there and forget about it

5. Be unique, be fun!

•What’s your story?
•Stop playing it safe!
