Tip#28: Inform Donors & Earn Second Gifts

Keep your donors updated on your campaign progress at least once or twice during the day. It’s not surprising that a donor who gives on #GivingTuesday is 60-150% more likely to give again THAT DAY. Yes, the same day.

 Keep your donors motivated by informing them of campaign progress in a non-ask format that has an easy way to add support. For example, as mentioned in Tip# 12, using a fundraising thermometer with a donate button can be an easy – and not overt – way to keep the door to second or third gifts open. No one likes an unfinished campaign, especially those who are already invested in it.
