The world as we know it
Over the past decade the number of US nonprofits has shot up by 47% to a whopping 1,056,000 organizations. Yet private giving as a percentage of the US national income dropped by 11.7% in the same period. Clearly, too many organizations chasing too little money.

LOVERIZING: Wooing, Winning and Keeping Individual Donors
“Loverizing” equals “donor centricity.”“Indiscriminate donor hugging” is
another synonym.

The “F” pattern
? Really?
The story’s about the donor...every time someone donates to a good cause, they're buying a story, a story that's worth more than the amount they donated.
It might be the story of doing the right thing, or fitting in, or pleasing a friend or honoring a memory, but the story has value.
For many, it's the story of what it means to be part of a community.

70+% of first-time donors in the U.S. do NOT make a second gift.
A 10% improvement in your donor retention improves your revenue 50% immediately.
And that’s just the beginning....

Calculating donor retention
Step 1: Count the total number of donors who gave in your most recent calendar or fiscal year.
Step 2: Divide the number of donors who made a donation in year 2 by the total in Step 1.
Step 3: Multiply the result from Step 2 by 100 to obtain your retention rate as a percentage.

Step One in Your Recovery
If you haven't yet made Sharp one of your charities, I am writing to sincerely ask that you ...
.... Please consider making your first gift today!
Since my treatment, I've learned just how important donors are to Sharp.
Year after year, donors have helped Sharp build new facilities, buy new equipment, fund scholarships, research, community outreach ... and more.
When you hear the worst diagnosis in your life, you quickly appreciate why all those years of donor support matter.
"Diane, your tonsils are full of cancer," I heard the doctor say. And that wasn't all of it. I had cancer in my jaw and the roof of my mouth as well.
I'd already lost a year because an earlier doctor, not at Sharp, had misdiagnosed my sore-throat symptoms and sent me home with a remedy from the drug store.
At Sharp, I was rushed into surgery immediately.
As you might imagine, it could have been a very, very bad scene for me.

Dear Tom,
My name's Diane York.
I'm a mother, a wife, a career fashion designer ... and, thanks to the magnificent care I received at Sharp, I am also now a cancer survivor.
If you are, or have been, a donor to Sharp, I want to take this special opportunity to thank you personally for your contribution to my recovery.

Welcome ... I hope.

Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) began to outnumber their elders in the donor-aged population starting in 2010. This monster demographic group is going to be the backbone of charitable giving from now until the mid-2030s.

Why Merchant’s Quay went from 3 printed issues a year to 4. Donor newsletter response rates:
2011, response rates of 6.35%, 6.59% and 8.00%.2012, response rates of 7.40%, 7.33%, and 12.08%.2013, response rates of 9.90%, 12.38%, and 12.73%.
For the record, this hasn't killed their donor retention rate. Au contraire. It now stands at 60%, double that of most U.S. nonprofits. (And no, their file is not dying. We do acquisition rollouts 2-3 times per year. The database has grown 5X in as many years. Five times.)

Why getting donor centricity right doesn’t matter for a donor like David Booth....
“By using the efficient markets hypothesis developed at the University of Chicago business school, we have been able to document clearly that you don’t have to try to outguess the market in order to have a good investment experience,” Booth said.“It would be hard to find anyone who benefited more from a University of Chicago education and from the faculty at Chicago than I have,” said Booth, who has been a member of the Council on the Graduate School of Business since 1999 and a member of the University Board of Trustees since 2002.
