Staffing Structure
Is there an ideal?
• The standard model
• Digital & DM together makes sense/ the new norm
• What about social and mobile? Who should they belong to?
• Do mobile and web analytics belong in IT or direct response?
• SEO, the website?

Staffing Structure
At SOI, Direct Response has always resided in a single
department reporting into the same person (mail, phone,
digital, legacy giving, donor services)
Why it works
• Shared goals
• Day-to-day awareness and collaboration
• Lends itself to integration across a lot of other key elements
Potential Pitfalls
• Conserted efforts to integrate and collaborate with
communications & marketing teams, key areas for digital channel
• Leader sets the tone – which can be key to success, or not.
7. !
Budgeting & Revenue
Why it works
• Shared goals, removes barriers to
collaboration
• Not worrying about who owns the money,
we are channel agnostic
Potential Pitfalls
• Individual accountability is still important
• Requires a cultural shift at every level
BUDGETS
ARE
AWESOME
9. !
Integrated Direct Marketing Program
• Long history of collaboration with chapters
• Centrally managed direct response
• Phased approach
• Channel-agnostic revenue sharing model
11. !
Why It Works
• Shared commitment to mission
• Successful program, cost-efficiencies and revenue,
the impact of not working together is too great
• Voluntary participation and greater capabilities
• Managed with the help of advisory group
• Credibility built over many years
• Treating chapters as client: reporting,
responsiveness, accountability
• Clear (contractual) expectations and processes
12. !
• There can be scary revenue risks
• Going after the “sacred cows”
• Digital channels can be controversial
• Attachment to existing metrics
• Cannot anticipate every scenario -- or every
personality
• Making changes too quickly or mandating
participation
• Increased program management complexity
Pitfalls
16. !
Clear Brand Hierarchy
Why it works
• Clarity of the brand helps amplify the voice and helps
organization stand out (including in the mind of the
donor)
Potential Pitfalls
• A long and complex journey to bring all the pieces
together and, over time, complete transition
• Possible negative impact on revenue
• Brand vision that does not resonate with donor
audience
18. !
Why Integrated?
• Because Target, Walmart, Best Buy does it. Why not
your org?
• It’s a user turnoff if your messaging, offers, brand
experience are not aligned
• Consumers expect and want it

Must Get Rid of the Data Silos
• If the engagement and transaction history of each customer
could be tracked across all these interaction paths, then
we’d have a 360-degree view of the customer.

24. !
• LTV
• Source coding strategy & beyond
• Chart your data flow – what,
when, where – visually
• CRM, CMS, Social Media, Web
Analytics – capture and pass
back data (unique IDs), then
move into donor database
• For full picture of channel
interaction, “tag” all interactions

25. !
Still Major Obstacles
• “New” digital interactions (display ad viewthroughs)
• Limitations of legacy donor databases
• Technical workarounds to include granular sourcing
(ie., digital is not just one channel from investment
perspective)
• Time and money to redo data synchs
• Adjustments for new CRM data changes
• Major expense and time undertaking
25 / Special Olympics
26. !
Other Obstacles
• “It’s an IT project.” Requires multi-departmental
group (including fundraisers) to identify data capture,
mapping and reporting needs
• Lack of pre-planned training and education for teams
and partners
• Accessibility for cross-departmental team members
and partners
• Others you’ve encountered?
26 / Special Olympics
31. !
Year-End Coordination with Programs
• Ongoing communication throughout planning
• Shared materials and schedule to help align efforts
32. !
Channels & Timing
Why it works
• To a donor, cause is a single entity
• Alignment helps take in consideration needs across departments
and teams
• In the process, we are able to identify opportunities
• Accept that calendar is not perfect or final
Potential Pitfalls
• Online & offline planning occurs at different points, requires
deliberate effort to align
• Time & fineness are required to build commitment
• Trying to create a perfect tool that meets all needs
34. !
Competition
• Organizational priorities and programs
• How do you balance competing revenue goals per
month, per year? (Events, public awareness)
• Inter-departmental calendar and coordination
• More integration organizationally?
• Are you competing in the mail and online with
chapters?
• Add that to your external competitors
34 / Special Olympics
35. !
Bonus Tip
• When working with chapters, consider forming an
advisory group (including nay-sayers) to help define
the new program. Giving stakeholders a sense of
ownership is key to getting the buy-in.

Omni-Channel Measurement Is the
Biggest Challenge
To identify the optimal marketing mix and investment, you have to know how the
aggregate effect of the channels, NOT just measure each individually.
