• Who is engaging?
• Multiple touch points

60-75% of one-time donors do not give again the following year
It is 10x more expensive to gain a new donor than to keep an existing one
You can have 70% retention year-over-year with recurring donations
Your Constituents Are Your #1 Donation Source

So Why Lifecycle Marketing?
Many marketers still base their plans on a purchase or purchasing funnel developed by E. St. Elmo Lewis in 1898.
Constituent engagement has changed drastically. The Internet, online reviews and social media have impacted on how we choose what nonprofits we want to engage with.
