Donors are the lifeblood of your organisation, volunteers the strong backs upon which it is built. You rely on them and on the partners and other constituents who interact with your not-for-profit on a daily basis. Tracking them all involves creating and maintaining a lot of data.  But that data also needs to be accessible. A database is like a First Aid kit—it doesn’t matter what’s in it if you can’t get to it when you need to. For example, if a donor calls, you want to be able to instantly access their donation history, their personal information and any other relevant data.  

Email is a key channel to communicate with our stakeholders, volunteers, donors and supporters. Many not-for-profit organisations use emails to send out e-newsletters, information on the upcoming fundraising campaigns, event invitations and other campaigns to promote their cause.  It is a powerful marketing tool that delivers value by driving response and cultivating ongoing relationships, and it is cited by marketers as one of the tactics with the best ROI. Numerous surveys of online marketers around the world also show that email is as important to them as it was two years ago. But it has to be done right to generate results.  This webinar aims to extend participants' skills and knowledge in practical and successful email marketing. Learning outcomes include:
