increase to $90 billion by 2020

We are living in the greatest technological era.
I believe we are living in the greatest era for fundraising.
It is easier than ever before to harness the power of technology, the crowd, and automation to raise money for your cause.
I truly think we are on the brink of the great automation revolution since the automobile assembly line.
It’s not just for profit brands that are seeing increased engagement in virtual worlds. It’s not just for profit brands who are held to high levels of expectations. As fundraising professionals, we have to keep up with the times, be agile and take advantage of the fact that while there is a lot more noise now, there are also a lot more tools for cutting through that noise.
You might be feeling like this.
But the question is, is it all hype?
For those of you who remember these shoes, these were hype
Heather Locklier has been doing peer-to-peer since the 80s
THE ASK IS MORE EFFECTIVE WHEN IT COMES FROM A FRIEND
Example:
American Red Cross was 20% in 2016 for Mobile Donations
Whether for profit, informational, review or funddraising, what do all of these have in common?
People asking people. People recommending for people.
Just like those social and review sites that we all use in our daily lives, P2P has entered the charitable space.
It’s the peer effect, peer pressure
Basic Math > increased revenue + decreased donor acquisition cost
Short term > allows the Org to spend less $$$ on generating new donations
Long term > This allows the Org to spend less $$$ on generating new donor list & segments
Show of hands: Who in this room is confused by all of the nomenclature?
WHITE BOARD IT OUT
Recalling requirements detailed on the whiteboard, which are YOUR organizations top requirements for your new program?
Which event program best meets your needs?
This is not a red pill or blue pill scenario. There’s no silver bullet, no magic pill
But when we talk about silver bullets we have to take a step back and ask ourselves, do we actually live in a silver bullet world? And, how can we determine what the right areas of focus are for our particular program and our organization. What may be a silver bullet for one organization, is not necessarily the winning ticket for another.
Next slide
It’s more like eating your broccoli. What I like to refer to as “eating your vegetables.” There is nothing less sexy than talking about best practices, but I guarantee that if you pick 5 best practices to focus on, you will move the needle.
Example of how I used to work with the Alzheimer’s Association, they said “We increased online fundraising for Walk by 28% in 2014, and 95% of that came from reinforcing best practices.“
Technology is becoming easier to use
User Experience is King
Ways to support
These are the recommended groups of supporters you should have targeted messaging for
What behaviors would you like to promote in your participants? Pick yours, and coach to them. How do you choose which ones to focus on? Run your numbers, compare with benchmarks.
Housekeeping
We will record this, etc…
I’m really excited for Audrey to show this to you today, but first I want to set the stage for why we care about team updates, and why we care so much about peer to peer. I believe some of you are using peer to peer, but some of you may be thinking about using peer to peer, so I’d like to first take a step back and talk about the value of peer to peer and team fundraising, and give you some things to think about.
