What makes a giving program successful?

Today, I’m giving you a sneak peek into the first two crucial steps from my 5-step framework (which will be featured in even more detail in my book that comes out in September!)

Step 1 - Create the Product

Step 2 - Make It Easy

Whether you are just starting OR looking to refresh or audit your current program, this episode is packed with insights and practical tips to get you on the right track.

I’m diving into the key questions you should ask around the why and structure of your program, what it means to create a “herd mentality”, and how to craft an irresistible identity that resonates with your mission and values.

You’ll also learn how to avoid gift abandonment by creating highly convertible, seamless, intuitive landing pages. Even a compelling headline, an uplifting image, and the strategic use of social proof will inspire action on your “Donate Now” button.

If growing your monthly giving is a priority this year, apply NOW for my Monthly Giving Mastermind that starts in July.
