Fundraising Growth Opportunity to strengthen donor engagement with a modern fundraising stack by integrating a CRM and marketing automation. Current tools include Mailchimp and a Squarespace Commerce setup, which can be extended into end-to-end donor management, recurring gifts, and grant reporting. A streamlined platform can improve donor retention, simplify grant applications, and enable more targeted campaigns. We can propose a migration plan and integration services with minimal disruption.
Platform Optimization Leverage the organization’s existing web presence to boost donations and program participation. Optimize the Squarespace Commerce experience, improve donation forms, add event ticketing, and unify messaging across channels with automated email journeys. This can increase conversion rate and lifetime value of supporters while reducing manual work for staff.
