Program: Development Communications - Integrating New Communication Vehicles into the Tried and True

  

What's tried and true in this era of electronic communication is the story you tell to inspire your donors and prospects. What’s new is the speed of change new generations of donors expect you to follow and the proliferation of cool new technology soft-toys to get the word out and make it easy for prospects to give. This presentation will take a look at some of the methods and resources available to today’s savvy fundraiser. Integrating the tools into your current communications regimen will also be discussed, including perils and pitfalls…and the need to have a teenage intern on your staff!
