Overall Satisfaction with Network for Good

We utilize the data management tool. This tool has allowed us to consolidate our donors; to track individual donations, the frequency of donations, how long since a donor actually made a donation, to categorize donors into groups (which is very helpful for us); and to provide to every donor with an immediate receipt as well as a year-end summary report for their individual tax reporting. The tool allows me to send out broadcast email messages, to create individual thank you videos, to develop focused fundraising campaigns, and to write and deliver our newsletter. I can track tasks, it reminds me to send thank you letters, and I can compare year-over-year performance. In addition to the data management tool, Network for Good provides consultants who are experts at development. I needed that help, as my background is not in development and fundraising. My consultant was wonderful and I learned a lot the year we worked together. Lastly, there are several webinars that you can attend regarding a myriad of issues associated with fundraising. We intend to keep Network for Good for the foreseeable future.
