Welcome Back & Looking Forward

Asking someone to give to your organization can be difficult and uncomfortable. We know you have questions - Do you ask for a specific amount or just offer an opportunity? Do you ask for a monthly gift or one large gift? Many fundraisers can be stopped in their tracks because they do not know the answers to these questions - but making the ask is critical to the success of your mission.&nbsp;
 In this session, we will discuss the various types of &ldquo;asks&rdquo; when it comes to raising funds for your mission. They will give real examples of ways to ask and they will emphasize the importance of your organization&rsquo;s story in every giving opportunity.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

Asking Made Easy: From First Time Gifts to Major Donors

These days, donors do not have to meet you face to face or attend one of your events to get an impression from you. Your mission is being communicated through your website, social media, or even your donation form. Potential supporters are using their internet savvy to gather information about your mission. So, are those digital platforms telling your story?&nbsp;
 This session will compel you to consider your current digital presence. You will assess examples and learn tips for using the digital space to communicate your story.
&nbsp;

At a Glance: Using Digital Platforms to Get Your Story Out

Did you know that many scholars consider smiling contagious? So, the best way to put a smile on the face of your donors is to show them a smile! DP Video allows you to put a face with your organization and send a personalized message directly to the inbox of your chosen audience.In this session, you will learn best practices for using videos to share about your organization&rsquo;s impact with your community. Speaker Adam Wilbur will help you identify advocates that can get the word out about your mission and use real life examples to prove the impact of using video to share your organization&rsquo;s story.

Using Videos to Tell Your Story

The last thing a donor sees before they make a contribution to your organization is your donation form. So, are you seeing that form as an opportunity to remind the giver about why they want to support your mission financially? In this session, DonorPerfect trainer Sean McClellan will walk you through using DP Forms to make sure your donors like what they see!
This session will focus on DP Forms which is a product of DonorPerfect. However, if you are not a DonorPerfect user, you will still learn valuable tips about making your donation page stand out.

Power Session - DP Forms

Have you ever thought about how your organization makes the first impression on volunteers? For many, a volunteer's first experience with you happens when they sign up to become a volunteer. A simple, streamlined sign-up and communication process helps your volunteers focus on helping you carry out your mission. Ensure their stories stem from positive experiences, rather than logistical nightmares.

So often, nonprofits can be hyper-focused on achieving their mission. However, your staff members are a critical part of that mission and losing focus of them will have an effect on your culture and your ability to make an impact. The reality is that fundraisers are leaving their positions every 15-18 months, which is having catastrophic effects on the nonprofit sector. This rate of turnover results in high donor attrition, high value attrition, lost trust with your donors, and a lack of connection between those donors and your mission.&nbsp;
In this session, you will learn how to change the tide and start addressing staff retention as a key priority for your organization this year. You will leave this session with reasons to keep your staff and ways to see retention across all areas of your nonprofit.

Is Your Staff a Part of Your Story and Connected to Your Mission?

People invest in stories. What story is your fundraising telling? And how are you telling that story in our digital world? Learn how you can wow supporters, connect on a deeper level, and ignite action in new ways through the power of storytelling. Pair storytelling with the right tools to convert that attention into retention.

Givecloud: Telling your story in various ways.

Social media is a quick and bite-sized way to tell your story. It also connects you directly to your donor. Your message, branding, and mission is literally in the palm of their hand. But, are you doing anything to move from someone liking a photo to loving your mission? Social media is an opportunity for your community to connect with your organization even beyond their phone screen.
Julia Campbell will help you address the next step after someone &ldquo;likes&rdquo; your organization virtually. She will discuss generational segments, obstacles you will face through platforms, and multi-channel approaches.

From “Liking” to “Loving”: Connecting your social media audience to your mission

Nonprofits inspire their supporters to complete and increase their gifts by making the online donation process a simple, modern, and rewarding one. With digital and remote payments driving today&rsquo;s payment volume, there&rsquo;s no better time than now to determine if your online donation forms effectively cater to your donors&rsquo; payment preferences.&nbsp;
Studies have shown that digital wallets like PayPal and Venmo - now included on our new DP Donation Forms - reduce donor checkout friction, inspire trust in your supporters, and can dramatically increase your donation form&rsquo;s conversion rate. Join DonorPerfect Product Manager Josh Cobert, DonorPerfect and Ellie Parris from SafePlace to explore how digital payment functionality propels the online giving experience - for both fundraisers and donors - and increases conversion rates by up to 35 percent!

Digital Payments in a Digital World

Your donors have a story and that story can be discovered through the information in your database. But how do you unlock that story? This session will walk through the insights that data can reveal about donors and how that can unlock new strategies to engage with your best supporters and build your community.&nbsp;
 In this session, the experts at DonorPerfect will use real examples to illustrate how data leads to insights, which leads into strategy and action. We will show how gift and donor data can transform your understanding of segments of your supporters, and alter your fundraising and communications strategy.
