Show me the money!
Think differently about the potential of email
communication and revenue.
27. Keep and Eye on Unsubscribes and other
At Risk Activities
There are many early indicators
of at-risk donors that may
require additional attention.
For example this high value
group had two segments that
were quietly unsubscribing
from emails. This action was
an early indicator that the
donors were becoming
disengaged. Now
segmentation strategies are
employed to give these donors
a little more love.
28. Other At-Risk Questions
1. Are unsubscribes more valuable
than email? Are they different by
Audience?
2. Web Donors does not equal
email – can you manage that
experience better?
3. Can you do what your donors ask
-- Really?
