Sanky Experts Speak at AFP 2010 International Conference on Fundraising
September 30th, 2009For three days in April, approximately 4,000 fundraising executives, nonprofit CEOs, volunteer leaders, and others interested in philanthropy will attend the 2010 AFP International Conference on Fundraising in Baltimore, Maryland.
As part of this prestigious conference, industry experts – and resident Sanky gurus – Harry Lynch and Paul Habig will be addressing the timely question, Is your fundraising email just like direct mail but with an “E”?
During their session, which takes place on Tuesday, April 13th, Harry and Paul will talk about the remarkable similarities between email and traditional direct mail … and the profound differences. You’ll also learn how some of your finely honed direct mail skills DO apply … but that your assumptions about what works and what doesn’t just might sink your online campaigns.
Paul and Harry will share tips and best practices covering email fundraising and answer your questions such as:
1. How do I build my email list?
2. How often do I email … and ask for money?
3. How do I measure success?
4. Is anyone really making money with email?
