For the average nonprofit, roughly 80% of all revenue comes from only 20% of its donors—and most of these earnings are major gifts. Because major gifts are so important, it’s crucial to take advantage of any opportunity you have to secure these donations. While your nonprofit likely has an individual or team dedicated solely to moves management and major giving, your marketing efforts can also play a role.

Traditional budgeting and forecasting methods can no longer keep pace with today’s rapidly evolving business environment. Static budgets, rigid annual forecasts, and outdated financial models limit an organization’s ability to adapt to market shifts and economic uncertainty.

Your donor gets nothing in return for her donation. Nothing but your communications. Your communications have a big job to do: To show her something she may have no way of knowing otherwise: What her gift made possible. That’s how you cross the gap from a donation being a random, one-time event to building a meaningful and mutually beneficial relationship with your donor.
