The Email Fundraiser's Toolkit: Week 2
Presented by Idealware - NDANO members receive a 15 percent discount.
Email campaigns are a fundraising tool within the reach of even the smallest organizations. An effective way to communicate with donors and raise money without much expense, they’re an opportunity to provide reasons and reminders for constituents to give. Campaigns are affordable, and not particularly complicated, but a number of guidelines and best practices can help ensure successful delivery and donor-engagement.
This five-week series of classes will walk nonprofits through the soup-to-nuts process of creating such campaigns, just in time for year-end appeals. Presented by experts, this series demystifies each step involved—from strategy to success. Participants will complete worksheets for review by peers and experts, will have access to Idealware staff experts during weekly open office hours sessions, and can expect to spend about two hours each week on coursework outside of the sessions. Over five weeks, they’ll develop and take away a finished and polished email fundraising strategy and the first email in their next email fundraising campaign.
Week 2: March 5
Writing effective emails—subject lines, donate buttons and creative content, oh my!
Okay, so you have a story…now what? In class number two we'll talk through the ins and outs of effective email writing from drafting attention-grabbing subject line to the p.s. and everything in between. Drawing from real life examples, we will learn how to craft the perfect email from top to bottom.
