If you want to maximize the value of every constituent relationship you make, then you need a donor nurturing strategy. In this webinar, Taylor Corrado, Nonprofit Marketer of HubSpot, will talk you through the best practices. Transform your new (and old) supporters into your most engaged and inspired advocates with a contextual email nurturing strategy. Key Takeaways: What is email nurturing and its benefits The importance of the "Giving Cycle" and contextual content How to best integrate nurturing with your other fundraising tactics How to measure and report the impact of your email nurturing What you can do today to start nurturing your supportersTRANSCRIPT
