Mobile and Social – a Broader Look
16. This year’s survey showed strong linkages between text donors
and cause marketing:
Corporate/Brand acts as an incentive
Already a “top-five” source for info about text campaigns
Text Giving and Cause Marketing
19. 1. Text is underutilized, both as a solicitation method and as a
source for sharing news and information
2. Text integration with social media should be the focus for those
wanting to do more with text – especially integrating text calls-
to-action with social video and Facebook
3. Nonprofits and corporate cause marketing partnerships provide
effective opportunities to communicate and solicit by text
• In fact, a cause marketing campaign is the perfect vehicle to
tie together points one and two
Survey Implications and Best Practices
20. A client was able to double their text donations from 2012
to 2013. Social media/text integration was the key success
factor
Used celebrity video with a text call-to-action
Fans retweeted calls-to-action and shared videos
Regional offices sent their own challenges and calls-to-
action to local supporters on their social networks
Example: Integrated Text and Social Media/Video
21. Segment and Target: Right message to the right audience at the
right time applies to mobile
Possible segmentation includes:
• Donation history
• Geography
• Activity preferences (Volunteer? Advocacy? Recruit others?)
• Donor source
• Issue preferences
Best Practices
22. Use text as a source of information about
your donors
• Qualitative and quantitative surveys
• Use to collect info for segmentation
and to build rapport with your
supporters through text

Before we go through some of our 2014 Text Donation Survey results in more detail, let’s look at four reasons why mobile is a super way to engage supporters.

Before we go through some of our 2014 Text Donation Survey results in more detail, let’s look at four reasons why mobile is a super way to engage supporters.
(See graph on next slide for text donor experience rating – 98% rate their experience in text giving as “excellent” or “good”)
The results of our annual survey show that donors want to engage – and give – more through mobile.
That engagement includes increasing integration with social media. Social media and mobile go so well together that we should no longer distinguish the two: mobile is social
Survey findings also show that cause marketing – corporate and brand involvement – are effective motivators and engagers in mobile. Cause marketing provides an opportunity to integrate mobile into your overall program.
98 percent rate their experience with text giving as excellent (78%) or good (20 percent) -- the highest in four years
On a scale of 1 to 4, text donors gave text giving a median score of 3.5 as their preferred method of giving, the top preferred choice among respondents. Text giving was the top pick for the first time in this year’s survey.
61% of respondents prefer text giving as an “excellent” way to give.
Only 30 percent of respondents say they “usually” give via text.
The text Giving Preference Gap can be seen in the graph on the next slide
This chart represents the Text Giving Preference Gap – while just under 30 percent of respondents say they usually give by text, nearly 100% rate their text giving experience as “excellent” or “good.” 61 percent strongly prefer it as a donation method and 85 percent say they want to continue to give this way.
The Text Giving Preference Gap indicates that text giving is under-utilized by nonprofits.
This giving gap is most pronounced for text, as well as online giving and special events.
When it comes to how donors hear about text campaigns, most say T.V., at 60 percent (Ads, TV shows, Concerts and telethons top TV sources).
Second source is social media at 35 percent.
Text donors like giving through social media – it’s in the top five preferred methods.
Text donors use their phones to make online donations, update Facebook and send Tweets, but their favorite activity is watching online videos with their mobile phones.
(See chart on next slide for stats on how mobile donors use their mobile phones with social media)
What we’re seeing with the integration of mobile and social media among text donors is reflective of how society is engaging social media. They are increasingly engaging it through social.
Cause marketing – a company or brand making an appeal – is the most likely motivator for making a text donation. A give away or coupon – another cause marketing technique -- was second choice.
Other cause marketing related findings from the survey include:
Cause marketing was in the top five sources for how text donors heard about text donation campaigns.
The appetite for information via text about updates on information and specials from corporate partners is growing, along with the opportunity to communicate more news and information overall. (see next slide)
Looking at the types of information desired by text, we see a growing trend in a desire for more news and information, volunteer opportunities and info and specials from corporate partners.
Given the effectiveness of a brand or corporate appeal to action, sharing news and information about your cause marketing campaigns seems like a natural fit for text donors.
Text can and should be used more – and not just for solicitations. Our clients have found that multiple, targeted messages sent within a month, can boost conversion from 10 percent to 21 percent. Follow-up and status reports are important and effective – plus the numbers show that there is an appetite among text donors for this information.
Integration with social media is critical, and the survey shows that Facebook and video have a powerful role to play. Use social to inform about your campaign and add video to make it compelling and personal. Create messages and videos supporters will share across their social networks. We will talk about an example shortly.
Clearly corporate brands offer a powerful incentive for text donors to give. Corporate partners can help provide a great source for content for social media and you can plug your campaign into their networks – making cause marketing the perfect and effective vehicle to tie practices one and two together.
Example of cross-pollination: A university client reached out to alumni and asked them to opt-in to their mobile network. 70% of the respondents who opted-on had not been actively communicating with the university

Idealist moderates – will field questions from audience or ask from this list:
-What sort of org is best suited for this solution?
-Solution cost
-What fundraising resources do you recommend?
