A Quick Reference Guide to
Email Fundraising
There are too many voices speaking into your email fundraising.
Traditional fundraisers want you to write your email appeals like you’d write a direct mail appeal – but they’re entirely different mediums.
Email platforms want you to use all of their cool design features because, well, you paid for them.
And most “best practice” blogs often recycle ecommerce email marketing ideas in hopes they work for fundraising too – without any real evidence.
