With the past 50 years of fundraising behind us, what's next? With the current economic conditions and increased competition for donor dollars, cost-effective methods for sourcing new prospects, converting them to donors, and maximizing their lifetime value is more important than ever. Research into the habits of major donors and general consumers alike continues to show a growing propensity for online giving and engagement. This webinar will discuss the strategic changes and investments required for nonprofits to succeed online, best practices for adapting to a world where the power has shifted to donors, and real-world examples of successful multi-channel marketing strategies.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Target Audience</B></div> <div> Mid Level 3-6 years to Senior Level 7-9 years</div> <bR> <div> <B>About the Presenter</B></div> <div> <B>Andrew Magnuson,</B> Senior Interactive Consultant, Convio.</div> <div> Andrew brings seven years of nonprofit experience to his work helping clients find the right strategic approach to their online challenges and goals.
