- January 28, 2009 report mostly email use
- Facebook is the second most popular site on the Web, second only to Google. YouTube is fifth. (Compete, March 2010) The fastest growing demographic on Facebook is people over 55 (922% growth from Jan. 09 - Jan 2010). Four out of five U.S. adults using the Internet participate socially (creating content or commenting on content created by others, participating in social networking sites).
- Online revenue grew 46% in 2009 compared to 2008. 46% of online revenue was processed in the last three months of the year. (Blackbaud) An estimated $4 billion was raised online in 2009, up 33% from 2008, while the number of online donors increased to 110 million, up 24% from 2008.

- Speed Efficiency Instant Gratification Efficiency, reduces admin costs for nonprofit Give while you are thinking about it Respond quickly to emergencies or crisis
- Lessons from the Obama by Colin Delany of E-politics: The Obama organization integrated online communications into its overall structure and processes. New media team director Joe Rospars was not buried in the technology or communications department, as were his counterparts in most other presidential campaigns. Instead, he reported directly to campaign manager David Plouffe, and he and others on his staff worked alongside liaisons from other campaign areas such as field organizing and fundraising,r Neighborhood Networks Training © 2008, Kivi Leroux Miller
- . You can connect your blog, Facebook, Twitter, etc. to update each other. Think about whether and how that makes sense given the type of content you share, how often, and with whom.
- Most of this research comes from retail, but Iprospects 2007 study 67% of online users are driven to perform an online search as a result of offline marketing messages, and 39% of those ultimately made a purchase. In one recent eMarketer study 47% of respondents said that magazines influenced them to start a search online for merchandise, which was more than those who credited email or blogs combined. Signage: Don’t underestimate the power of both big signs (bill boards) and little signs with repetitive messages (bumper stickers) Media: What people see on TV or hear on the radio drives website visits.

- Lots of evidence that people who got both email and postal mail performed better. Also clear evidence that when someone added a channel to their giving portfolio (i.e. offline donor gives online or vice versa), their value and longevity increased.

- It’s not like people who read the newspaper don’t read news online, or watch TV news. We are complicated human beings. Neighborhood Networks Training © 2008, Kivi Leroux Miller
- About 80% of first-time donors say that getting a prompt, meaningful thank you and follow-up results, will ensure a second gift. Yet donor attrition between the first and second gift is 65% (“Donor Centered Fundraising, 2003). Donor attrition between first and second gift: 65% Those saying their first gift was not as generous as it could have been: 75% Those saying getting a prompt, meaningful thank you, and follow-up results, will ensure second gift: 80% Reporting back results is more important than individual recognition
- Think about how you want people to travel from channel to channel, and what they will see at each stop along the way. For example, if your e-news links to your website, what’s on that landing page? Does that landing page urge visitors to discuss the topic on Facebook or Twitter? If someone starts on Facebook, how are you encouraging them to sign-up for your e-newsletter? Again, it goes back to understanding how to get the most out of each channel.
- You’ll learn a great deal from the conversation in social media that you can use to inspire and inform you e-news and web content. For example, a conversation on Twitter can transform into a new update you send out via your e-newsletter. Blog comments can direct updates to other parts of your website.
