THE COMMUNITY

KNEW

A place where people care

A place for people in need

Efficient and effective

Community leader

A place where people can turn their lives around

THE COMMUNITY DIDN’T KNOW

• About our programs and services

• How we do what we do

Understanding our audience

Page 7: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

A new brand

Page 8: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

Power on…to a new vision

Our original headquarters:

• Beyond it’s useful life

• Small, crowded, and in need of repair

• Didn’t fully support program and services

Our new headquarters:• Designed for what we do• Employment training programs• Expansion of services

Page 9: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

So if we know all of this…why

bother with data?

The Power of Retention

. . . The more frequent the gift, the more likely to retain

It is important to understand these behaviors

It is much easier and cost-effective to keep your donors on file than to acquire new donors

The old standards still hold true

» Recency, Frequency, and $ still drives a program» The downside of not managing these metrics closely can hurt a program through lost revenue and donors» Capitalizing on giving patterns can create new opportunities for your organization

New donors are out there

» We are not solely relying on a few donors who give frequently to fuel acquisition» Newly Acquired Younger donors may not be solicited as heavily as older donors who give frequently. Old assumptions on channel behavior may not hold true in all cases

• Analyze before assuming

Applying Analytics

Page 14: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

Our Approach

We utilize your organization’s unique giving history, enhance it with profile data, and apply proven statistical techniques

to create your custom modelsF

We then apply those models to identify likelihood and

capacity with pinpoint precisionF

Finally, we perform a detailed screening to uncover wealth, career, and philanthropic

connections and determined those most likely to be your best prospects for specificgifts.

GEOGRAPHY OF PROSPECTS, DONORS, & MAJOR GIFT DONORS

Page 16: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

+

• Those likely to give a major gift to One80 Place are loyal donors who tend to increase their gift size over time.

• They are also likely to reside in areas where people are occupied in sales positions, indicating that they may have a higher income

• Additionally, we see that these individuals have higher valued real estate holdings and indicators of wealth

• Lastly based on matches in the (NOZA) database, we can see that these individuals are philanthropic in nature

MAJOR GIVING LIKELIHOOD

Page 17: Developing a Data-Driven Major Gift Culture

+

• Your best prospects for an increase in giving are showing several wealth characteristics, they hold public assets and have high mortgage limits.

• Additionally, they are employed in professional, scientific, & technical services, all indicators of possibly higher income.

• Also, we see the Average Dollar Purchase variable appearing as positive, which is a great indicator of availability of disposable income.

• Lastly, as in the MGL, they are loyal, increasing, donors to One80 Place.

� Assign each Major gift prospect in active cultivation a solicitor

� Pull quarterly reports that note change in gift amount and frequency for solicited individuals

Culture Change – Foundation

DATABASE

ADMINISTRATION

Step One

• Major gift portfolios will be reviewed. Prospects with no contact in 12 months and a target gift range of less than $1,000 will be removed

• Major gift officers review removal list and can challenge prospects they would like to keep

• Major gift officers will receive 10-15 new major gift prospects. Criteria – major gift likelihood >=701 and target gift range >=$1,000

Culture Change – Step 2: Major Gifts

Step Two

• Major gift officers must complete wealth profile review of newly assigned prospects

• Discovery calls must be complete within 3 months of assignment

Step Three

• Major gift officers begin solicitation of qualified newly assigned prospects (3-4 total)

Step Four

• Development team continues new assignments to keep portfolios at roughly 50 prospects in “active” cultivation
