You’ll rejoice or you’ll grimace when you read Harvey McKinnon’s new book, How to Create Lifelong Donors Through Monthly Giving.
If you have a monthly donor programme, you’ll rejoice because you’ll discover ways to tweak, enhance, and refine what you’re doing already.
But if you don’t have a programme, you’ll grimace at the opportunity you’re squandering by overlooking this proven money-maker.
McKinnon, an expert on monthly giving, convincingly shows that:
- Practically ANY organisation can attract monthly donors.
- Even if your organisation is starting from scratch, you can depend on 10 percent or more of your current donors immediately converting to monthly giving.
- Your file of monthly donors can mushroom to 40 or 50 percent or more with targeted effort.
- A majority of those donors will regularly upgrade their gifts and continue to give for 10, 15, or 20 years.
- And, most importantly, with a robust monthly giving programme in place, you’ll have a guaranteed, LOW COST revenue stream you can count on year in and year out.
With great clarity, McKinnon spells out exactly what you need to know, and what you need to do, to establish or refine your programme. His is a laser focus that explores the initial challenges you’ll face, dispels a multitude of misconceptions, and serves up the step by step specifics to undergird your successful effort.
