Doug Shaw presented on creating income-producing newsletters. His firm has helped nonprofits generate hundreds of millions through effective newsletters and other strategies. Newsletters should communicate results to donors, thank them, and build relationships without overt fundraising. Effective elements include compelling stories, photos, and visuals over text. Response devices should echo stories and suggest gift amounts. Packaging, including carriers and envelopes, is important to get materials opened. With the right design and content, newsletters can have response rates over 12% and net incomes in the hundreds of thousands.
