KPI 2: Percent of Fundraisers
• Asking participants to make a personal donation is a great tactic to reduce $0 Walkers.
• But, making donation during registration does not make someone a fundraiser.
How do you increase percent of fundraisers?• Look at your event website, is it clear this is a
fundraising event?• Make the registration process work for you;
messaging around fundraising goal • Segment your participants:
• Develop a communication plan for participants who donate during registration
• 1st Follow Up message, post registration should acknowledge their donation
