With the changing times, people's approach towards non-profit organizations and charities has also undergone a tremendous change. Unfortunately, a large number of non-profits choose to turn blind eye to the ongoing changes and continue to follow the outdated means of communicating with donors, which naturally affects their fundraising capabilities. In view of the changing outlook of the donors, to Mark Schulhof, the CEO of Quadriga Art, has stressed on the need for non-profits to adapt better donor communication policies.

 

According to Mark Schulhof, non profits should base their marketing strategies on the changing landscape of the country and society they are operating in. It is vital for non-profits to consider factors including regulatory and legislative reforms, market consolidation, media fractionalization, changing demographics, instant information overload and the struggling economy before finalizing a donor communication strategy. It is vital to develop marketing policies after considering various factors that might attract donors towards making a contribution not only in the present times, but on a long term basis.

 

Schulhof has also pointed out that most charities are repeatedly following the path that has been treaded by numerous non-profits previously and this is surely not helping them in increasing their donor base. According to Mark Schulhof,  non-profits need to adapt new methodologies to ensure that the donors are converted into investors. It has also become important for non-profits to be more creative in their marketing strategies in order to achieve success in their stated goals and missions.

 

Schulhof has also advised non-profits to remember the fact that today people are not only a lot busier but also have access to greater and more accurate information. As such it is important to design variable market strategies to reach out to diverse target audience. This will enable non-profits to convince them in a better way about investing in their cause.
