Episode Details

Monthly giving is not just about a donation. It is about giving people a way to channel their purpose consistently.

And in today's episode, we’re unveiling the secrets behind making compelling asks – and the most powerful strategies for recurring donation requests, so you can leverage initial contributions for maximum impact.

For example, 29% of first time donors who became recurring donors, did so within the first 90 days of their initial gifts (!)

From speaking opportunities at events, to the effectiveness of storytelling through long-form videos and influencer partnerships, you’ll find out how to engage supporters in meaningful ways.

We discuss critical retention techniques such as monitoring churn rates and using automated email sequences to keep donor engagement high.

This episode is packed with actionable advice to help you build lasting donor loyalty and even cultivate major gifts.

And, don’t forget to register for the Monthly Giving Summit coming up on Sept 5-6 from 1-4 pm ET - the ONLY virtual event designed to help nonprofits build, grow, and sustain subscriptions for good. RSVP for FREE here!
