Episode Details

Right off the heels of GiveCon, the data is IN. Bloomerang just released their 2026 Giving Signals report, and there's one stat that stopped me in my tracks: donors prefer specific impact language over vague appeals by an 88 point margin!

Ann Fellman, CMO of Bloomerang, is joining me fresh off the GiveCon stage to break down what the data is telling us about donor behavior and why your $25/month donor might actually be worth $3,200+ in lifetime value.

Ann also reveals two major product launches, including a native integration with Dataro's predictive donor intelligence — and shares exactly what she'd focus on this summer to get ahead of end-of-year fundraising.
