In this episode of The Responsive Lab, Carly and Scott sit down with Aidan Augustin, Co-founder and CRO at Feathr, to unpack how to turn your story into a strategy that actually drives donor action.
Nonprofits are facing real headwinds — from declining trust to loud public skepticism. But Aidan makes the case that now is the time for nonprofit leaders to get louder, not quieter. With humor, clarity, and tactical advice, Aidan explains how digital marketing can fuel fundraising success and help change the narrative around nonprofit impact.
You’ll learn how to:
Use storytelling to counter negative press and drive action
Map your donor journey with a marketing funnel mindset
Start with bottom-of-funnel wins like retargeting and work your way up
Integrate marketing and fundraising for better results
Measure ROI on marketing and prove its value to your board
