Thoughts from Industry ExpertsThoughts from Industry Experts
“Utilizing rent-able applications and other low cost or free web applications allows the small nonprofit to leverage labor and financial resources. Thus they are able to serve more of their constituency, as well as better communicate with (and broaden) their donor base, and improve services.
In other words, leveraging through technology provides the small nonprofit an opportunity to "level the playing field."Carolyn S. Sechler, CPAPhoenix, AZ
“We are in the middle of a fundamental shift from mass media to the personal media of computers and the Internet, and charitable giving is a logical progression.”
Paul Saffo Director of the Institute for the Future.

What does this mean for churches & ministries?
To establish a strong foundation on which your ministry can grow and be most effective, you must be able to attract and engage members, build meaningful relationships with them, increase involvement and encourage ongoing support.
From broadcast ministries, local churches, relief agencies to missionary-sending organizations and mega churches, faith-based groups like yours can use comprehensive online solutions to:
Build a more effective ministry,
Increase outreach
Nurture and cultivate member relationships, and
Decrease communication costs while streamlining administrative processes.

Benchmarking - What is it?
Now, for the very first time, you can get dynamic reports that let you compare your fundraising activities and results to other nonprofit organizations! You can even filter the data to match your results to organizations that are similar to you in type, size and location.
Benchmark Reporting module is designed to gather aggregate statistics from a large number of participating eTapestry/FEP customer databases. The data is then displayed side-by-side with the same statistics from your own database, giving you a comparison between your organization and other nonprofits.
Having access to this data will allow you to see where your strengths and weaknesses lie in comparison to similar groups. This valuable data supports growth-oriented strategic planning and budgeting for your fundraising programs, enabling you to raise more money!
