April workshop: Donor Retention that Boosts Loyalty and Gifts
Imagine donating your hard-earned money to a charity and never hearing back.
What if the only time a nonprofit communicated to you was when they wanted something from you?
Sadly, this happens every day. More than 80% of donors report that the charity they gave to never told them the outcome of their gift.
A stewardship plan is a set of business rules to thank and cultivate donor relationships. Having a thoughtful, well-planned, and well-executed stewardship plan is your #1 tool to retain and upgrade your donors.
It’s your road map to becoming your donor’s favorite charity. Without one donor relations are haphazard, spotty, and sloppy.
Hey, you spend a lot of time and money acquiring new donors! Make them loyal for life and boost their gifts in this 90-minute “Donor Retention that Boosts Loyalty and Gifts" workshop on Thursday, April 24 at 11 am CST /12 noon EST.
You’ll discover:
- The ‘virtuous circle’ of fundraising and how it helps you raise more
- Simple formulas to calculate first-time (and overall) donor retention
- The gap between what you want to say and what donors want to hear
- How to audit your current donor communications
- What an ask-to-thank ratio is and how to calculate yours
- A sample donor love communications calendar and sample stewardship plan template loaded with creative ideas to save you time and delight your donors
- Examples of thank you call scripts, thank you letters, and reporting back letters that keep donors coming back
- Low-tech and high-tech tools to maximize the personal touch for donors
- Winning stewardship examples to inspire you
WHAT YOU’LL GET:
- A done-for-you stewardship plan
- A 10-page how-to guide to create a stewardship plan
- 23 ways to shower your donors with love loaded with examples you can use immediately
- 1.5 CFRE credits

Who am I and why should you listen to me?
My name is Rachel Muir and I am just as passionate about making the world a better place as you are.
I’ve started and run my own nonprofit, raised over 10 million and was featured on Oprah, CNN and the Today show.
It took a lot of inspiration and a truck-load of guts to get to where I am today.
I have helped thousands of fundraisers land big gifts, delight their donors, and love their jobs…all because I use proven systems and methods. Because nobody wants theory!

You'll get so much out of every session and all the materials that Rachel provides. They're available for you to go back and review and use no matter what time of year. This is an investment I never let my Board try to cut from our budget!!

I appreciate how Rachel breaks concepts and tactics into manageable bits. I always feel like "oh, I can do this" after one of her workshops.
