1 Website Update = A 300% Increase in Monthly Donations with Shannon McLaughlin from Animal Haven
We’re about to talk about a cause that’s near and dear to my heart. Shannon McLaughlin Kirkman is one of two development employees at Animal Haven, a nonprofit organization that finds loving homes for abandoned cats and dogs throughout the Tri-State area.
In today’s discussion, Shannon breaks down how she is completely rocking it in her role as Director of Development and Communications. She’ll give us the scoop on how she increased monthly donations by 300% (and saw a 40% increase in online fundraising!), PLUS how their Instagram grew from 57,000 followers to 150,000 followers in just a few years.
