Small Nonprofit: Fundraising Tips, Leadership Strategies, and Community-Centric Solutions direct mail isn’t dead with John Lepp
And the small charities can slow down a little bit and stop automating. I remind people that direct response, whether it's direct mail or if it's online, I don't care what it is. It is an opportunity for conversation. You are talking to other human beings that we call donors. And that's an opportunity to have something, a meaningful connection with someone who wants to help you achieve your goals. And just like relationships are in real life. - John Lepp
