MarketSmart Words That Work: The Phrases That Encourage Planned GivingMarketSmart

->Which donor demographic is more responsive to bequest giving marketing
->Which words you should avoid to maximize legacy gift disclosures
->The right way to talk about the benefits of planned giving
->The motivational effects of tax benefits on charitable interest

other types of giving either remained static or reported declines.

How to Avoid Fundraising’s Quiet Killer: Donor AttritionAggregage
It doesn't take an industry professional to know that nonprofits highly depend on donations. The marketing emails, events, and website design are meant to attract new donors, when what we should be doing is trying to keep the donors we have. Teach a man donor acquisition and he'll get donations for the day--teach a man donor retention and he'll get donations for a lifetime. John Jay Wilkinson, CEO and founder of Firespring, and learn how to get donations for a lifetime. In this session, Jay will help us learn how to step off of the donor acquisition treadmill and rev up donor retention. Six out of ten donors give only once, but this doesn’t have to be your reality. Jay will help us understand how a 10% increase in donor retention will more than double the lifetime value of a donor and minimize our reliance on producing constant appeals for new donors.

Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

Keep it simple
Say what it is
Say how they benefit
Use sentence structure and syntax your mom would understand
Avoid industry jargon, legalese, financial advisor and fundraiser terminology
WORDS THAT WORK
These words attract interest while delivering information in-line with donor expectations
CGA’s Planned Giving
- Gifts that pay you income
- Gifts that pay you income for life
- Other ways to give
- Other ways to give smarter

“FRONT DOOR PHRASES”
YOU MUST USE

in a broader range of planned giving options
Successful front door phrases:
2 Attract interest by
Providing benefits
Offering value
Tapping into emotions
Reflecting honesty and transparency
3 Deliver what was promised by
Including information in-line with what attracted their interest
Giving them what they expected to see (never bait-and-switch)
1 Are simple and easy to understand

TO GENERATE INTEREST
REFERENCE TAX BENEFITS
CGA Example:
“Receive a tax deduction and make a gift that pays you income for life”
Stocks/Bonds Example:
“Avoid capital gains tax by making a gift of stocks or bonds to charity”
“Avoid capital gains taxes by giving stocks”
“Avoid taxes by giving stocks”
“Tax tips when giving stocks”
“Save taxes by giving stocks”
“How to save taxes by giving stocks”
(All of these generate more interest than saying, “Give stocks.”)

EMPLOY SOCIAL NORMS
They are powerful but only if there is a match.
For example: Donor photos
If your outreach
includes a photo
of a mature woman…
...the recipient of
your outreach should
also be a mature woman
If you can segment your list and match the age and gender of the person in the photo with the age and gender of
the person receiving the outreach, you’ll hit a home run!
But, if you can’t, interest in your outreach might be diminished as a result of the mismatch.
So, consider using a relatively benign, generic photo of a building or researcher
(for instance) to avoid provoking a social mismatch.
Social norms are “rules of behavior” considered to be acceptable in a group or society.

AVOID USING “DEATH MESSAGES”
Here’s why:
1 People avoid thoughts about their own death
Estate planning reminds people about their own mortality (death)
OR YOUR DONORS WILL AVOID THEM FOR YOU
2
When confronted with a “death message” people find reasons to avoid the subject3
The single worst word you can
ever use in planned gift marketing
Also avoid the following words:
Die
Death
Deceased

CELEBRATE LIVING DONORS AND YOUR
Here’s why:
PROSPECTS WILL CELEBRATE WITH YOU
Stories about living donors create social norms (especially if those involved in the stories
are “matched” with those receiving the communications).
Living people prefer stories about other living people more than dead ones!

OFFERS TO HONOR FAMILY MEMBER
ASCENDANTS WORK BETTER THAN
OFFERS TO HONOR DESCENDANTS
Ascendants:
Grandmother
Grandfather
Grandparents
Aunt
Uncle
Mother
Friend
Girlfriend/boyfriend
Daughter
Brother
Son
Nephew
Niece
BONUS: There IS a “gender bias”
Interestingly, research has shown that people are more willing to give or make a planned gift
to honor female family members than male family members (including fathers).

LIFE REVIEW QUESTIONS
Life review questions inspire supporters to think about their life
For instance
Why is _________ important in your life?
WIN BIG!
stories and how your organization’s mission connects with
their autobiographies
Who influenced you to become involved in _________?
At what age did you first think about _________?
BONUS: Line up your life review questions
The more life review questions you ask consecutively, the better your results will be!

IF YOU WANT SERIOUS RESULTS,
RECOGNIZE THAT IT AIN’T ABOUT YOU
Planned giving decision-making is all about your supporters’ life
stories and how your organization’s mission entwines with them
Forget life-stage marketing that assumes you know your
donors and focus on life story marketing instead!
Get to know your supporters and their life narratives by asking lots of questions
Help them connect the dots between their life stories and your mission by providing
opportunities for two-way dialogue
Send personalized, highly relevant, simple, non-technical communications
Provide opportunities for them to honor or pay tribute to loved ones (especially
female ascendants)
It’s ok to remind them about tax benefits
Focus on the benefits they’ll receive and keep the messages simple
Only use technical language when absolutely necessary (usually at the final action stage)
Never use a bait and switch tactic in your communications
Avoid death messages at all costs
