๐ Master the Art of Post-Campaign Fundraising! ๐
Welcome back, folks, to a topic that often gets overlooked in the world of crowdfunding: Post-Campaign Strategies. This is where the real magic happens, and it’s an essential aspect of any successful fundraising campaign.
We’ve all been there, right? You just ran a million-dollar crowdfunding campaign. The excitement is through the roof, or perhaps, if you didn’t meet your goal, you’re analyzing what went wrong. But the truth is, most crowdfunding platforms don’t emphasize the importance of the post-campaign phase.
So, what exactly is post-campaign, and why is it the most critical part of your fundraising campaign? Let’s dive in.
๐ง The Power of Post-Campaign Email Sequences ๐ง
One of the most crucial things you can do is have a robust email sequence ready to go immediately after your campaign ends. The moment the campaign wraps up, send out an email thanking your supporters for their invaluable contributions. Express your gratitude and enthusiasm for their partnership.
๐ The Magic of Monthly Giving ๐
Here’s where the real magic happens. In that very first post-campaign email, ask your donors if they’d like to continue their partnership throughout the year by becoming monthly givers. You see, they’re riding high on the success and happiness of the campaign, and this is the perfect moment to invite them into a more sustained partnership.
๐ The Secret Sauce: 10-Part Email Sequence ๐
Following this initial email, continue the conversation. Send out a series of emails, maybe a 10-part sequence, that maintains the engagement and shares your nonprofit’s ongoing work. Throughout this sequence, continue to ask for monthly commitments. It’s a method that has proven effective in boosting monthly donations significantly.
๐ Plan for Success ๐
Remember, success in fundraising isn’t just about the present campaign. It’s about what happens after the crowdfunding finishes. Plan for the pre-campaign, the campaign itself, and the post-campaign. By doing so, you’ll set the stage for long-term success.
