概要
The message that doubled one nonprofit’s repeat donors wasn’t long, clever, or emotional poetry. It wasn’t a campaign or a big strategy shift. It was one short follow-up, sent at the right moment, with the right tone, asking the right thing.
In this episode of The Million Dollar Nonprofit, Tom Kelly breaks down why most nonprofits lose donors not because donors stopped caring, but because the conversation stopped. Most organizations think follow-up means asking again. Real follow-up is something different entirely — it’s continuing a conversation that most nonprofits never actually start.
You’ll learn:
- Why traditional follow-up fails and silently kills donor retention
- The exact follow-up message that doubled repeat donors (and why it worked)
- How timing, tone, and curiosity outperform pressure and urgency
- Why asking for perspective builds more loyalty than asking for money
- How to automate this process using AI without losing the human touch
Tom walks through a real example where a nonprofit sent a simple follow-up question three to five days after a donation. No links. No buttons. No ask. Just curiosity. The result? Donors replied, shared their motivations, felt seen — and stayed.
