Your nonprofit organization may struggle with keeping ongoing donors and in the everlasting search of new donors. Sound familiar? This is called donor churn. Most nonprofits churn 55% of donors annually! Holy Smokes! The thing is, it can cost 50-100% more to get new donors compared to the donations they will give. Yikes! Enter Bonjoro! "Bonjoro is building the world's first Customer Delight platform to help great teams build real relationships with their customers at scale." Simply put, Bonjoro is an amazing platform where your nonprofit can easily connect with donors via video. I use Bonjoro and I love it. It's been a great way that I have been able to send videos to customers and create a personalized relationship with them. In fact, an epiphany came to me one day where I thought... "OMGEE...This would be excellent for nonprofits to build donor relationships!" Clearly I am not the only one who thought this! When I reached out to Bonjoro to have a chat, they pointed me to their amazing nonprofit platform where they do this! Just imagine as soon as a first-time donor gives a donation you get a notification on your phone. ✨ You take a super quick video to thank them by name. ✨ With a tap of the finger the video would be emailed over to them. ✨ All in all, you might have spent two minutes to run a quick thank you video. But the power of that video is HUGE! No downloading the video to upload somewhere else, to only get rejected by their email because the file is too large. Everything is streamlined. There are definitely other ways that your nonprofit can use Bonjoro to boost donor retention.
