January Workshop: Donor Surveys that Raise Money
Do you know what inspires your donors to give?
Hint: Donors give for their reasons, not yours.
Donor surveys are the key to unlock donor’s interests, make them feel connected to your cause, build the right appeals, grow your major gift pipeline and even optimize your current donor portfolio.
Can donor surveys actually retain and upgrade your donors? Yes! Donor satisfaction is the #1 driver of donor loyalty.
I’m saving you from the expensive pitfalls of most surveys and giving you the magic formula to design surveys that drive donor giving and loyalty even if you have never created a survey before, don’t know where to start or failed statistics in college.
Are you ready to…
- Find your hidden gems?
- Unlock 4, 5, 6 even 7 figure gifts?
- Upgrade donors who could be giving more?
- Enjoy rich rewarding satisfying and lucrative relationships with your donors?
- Sleep better at night knowing your donors are happy and satisfied with the communication and treatment they get from you?
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- The components of a great donor survey
- How to sidestep the countless pitfalls that plague so many surveys
- The do’s and don’ts of donor surveys
- The lucrative and easy to implement art of micro surveys
- Sample donor satisfaction surveys, event attendee surveys, lapsed donor surveys, and brand awareness surveys
- The “Am I ready to do a donor survey?” go live checklist
WHAT YOU’LL GET:
- A 90 minute on demand workshop on doing surveys
- The who-what-how workbook guide to doing donor surveys
- 1.5 CFRE continuing education credits
- Eye candy examples you‘ll want to steal from winning online & offline surveys
- How to survey your donors in person with an in-person donor thought circle
Commercial businesses hold on to a whopping 94% of customers, so why can't we? Hint: they survey. A LOT.
Come get the keys to survey like the pros!
Can’t make it live on Thursday, January 23rd? I got your back! As soon as the workshop wraps you’ll have immediate access to the workshop and workbook.
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!

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.
