Mobile Loaves & Fishes: A Case Study in Companion Marketing

January 21, 2009

Results
This was MLF’s first campaign using PURLs. Utilizing the combination of this new technology and traditional response channels, the organization was able to raise more than $14,000.

Takeaway tips

  • E-marketing is an important, cost-efficient tool for nurturing existing leads and formulating an effective fundraising campaign when used correctly.
  • For even more targeted marketing pieces, fundraisers can customize e-mails on a more individual level by including personalized information, such as name or mention of past inquiries. This tactic allows fundraisers to increase chances to turn potential donors into active participants and information seekers.   
  • E-marketing also includes built-in tracking features offered by many direct-mail providers that can report fundraising campaign statistics. These reports can be updated in real time, which is a critical feature in the case of time-sensitive campaigns or when an organization is testing its marketing messages.

Hi,

I'm really interested in trying to persuade some of my clients (charities in Ireland) to try a crossmedia/PURL campaign, and would really welcome the opportunity to talk to someone from Mobile Loaves & Fishes about these results. Any chance you could e-mail me a contact? I want to blog about this too. I think it's something the fundraising sector simply isn't taking seriously enough yet.

Thanks
