Consulting Call: Asking The Same Donors To Give Over & Over Again? Tips On How To Attract New Supporters + Encourage Your Current Advocates with Lindsey Molander, Seed India


Listen Later

If you're thinking about how to maximize your GivingTuesday and year-end fundraising efforts, you'll want to join me for this in-depth consulting call with Lindsay Melander, the executive director of Seed India

In her role, Lindsay takes on the monumental task of communicating the hardships of families living in the slums of Kolkata, India, to the average Westerner. With stories as compelling as hers, there's SO much she can unpack and share with the world to further cement donor relationships.

This episode is chock full of techniques for connecting with new donors and building trust with existing ones, from using personalized thank you emails and video asks, testing video view and retargeting ad campaigns (for as little as $5 per day!), and creating tentpole content.

We move on to discuss Lindsay's strategies for maximizing end-of-year fundraising efforts and segmenting different asks for various donor groups. For example, she could ask recurring donors to increase their gift, or their 800+ social media followers to share their story. There's also potential to collaborate with other brands that align with their values.

I love hosting these consulting style calls and hope you'll take away some nuggets of inspiration in this conversation with Lindsay!
