The best method for developing personal connections is personalizing everything we do to engage donors. While donor data can make this process easier, too much data can create an analysis paralysis for fundraisers.

We all know that people give to people, but what happens when people don't have the capacity to connect with more prospects?

There is no secret number of touchpoints it takes or the amount of time given to each prospect because each nonprofit is different and has different standards for what the ideal donor looks like. This leaves lots of room for human error and guessing.

Do fundraisers have the time to do the outreach, communication, qualification, cultivation, and all the necessary touchpoints with planned giving prospects as well as managing the existing donors they already have in the pipeline?

Fundraisers are left without knowing if a prospect has even opened their email, never mind simply forgotten to respond. Without feedback, fundraisers are left in the dark with how donors and prospects are engaging with or considering their outreach.
