My wife and I listed our house up for sale last Monday and sold it on Wednesday. The buyer offered us a few hundred dollars more than our price sales, so he accepted. But we have lingering doubts. Perhaps you, too.
You know how it is. You name your price, and the buyer accepts immediately. Thus he immediately asked if the price was too low. Maybe that's why the buyer agreed to the price so quickly.
In direct mail to raise funds find in this same challenge. How much should you ask someone to donate if you have never donated before? If you ask a great gift, not going to give. And if you ask a small gift, which will give you. But maybe if you order a gift larger than its small ask, but smaller than its big question, you also receive a donation. If you request an amount that generates a huge response, you may agonize that perhaps could have asked for a little more and got it.
Here There are three ways to determine how much to ask.
1. Ask your competitors how much to ask
Phone a nonprofit organization profit as his own, preferably one that does not compete directly for the donor dollar, and ask them how much to ask potential donors to give. If the competitor not to tell, or are too timid to pick up the phone, get on their mailing list and see how much you are asked to donate.
2. Find out what the average donation is for people on the mailing list that is
If you are sending a fundraising letter to people who have never donated to the organization before, is likely to hire from a list of names. Ask your agent list if the data card that contains the list giving levels. Some lists available for rent that the average donation size that people on the list given to charities.
3. Proof of a series of questions
If in doubt, test. Some lists have a higher average gift than others. So test lists by varying the order of quantity. And try to order quantities in time for you to discover the optimal amount of money to ask a potential donor.
Asking for the correct amount with a gift for the first time, is crucial. It can mean the difference between net income generation with their mail, breaking even or losing your shirt or blouse, as the case.
