The year-end season at nonprofits is a beautiful jumble of holiday cheer and urgency. And at Doing Good Digital, we live for it! It’s a time to reflect on the year, have fun, and raise money for missions that are changing the world. Year-end fundraising emails are one of the best ways to connect with your audience and reach your fundraising goals before the year comes to a close. They’re a way to bring your organization’s voice to your donors (on whichever device they may be on!) and how to maximize year-end donations.

Why Grateful Patient Engagement is More Powerful than Revenue

As digital becomes more and more of a focus in hospitals and health systems, it is time to find new ways to connect digitally with recently discharged patients through grateful patient programs. These digital programs are designed to introduce patients to the organization’s mission, values, and community, with the ultimate goal of building long-term relationships that lead to future support. However, to truly understand the effectiveness of these initiatives, we often get asked about the return on investment (ROI) of this type of email campaign. Here at Doing Good Digital, when we build grateful patient programs, we emphasize the importance of tracking engagement as a factor that’s often even more meaningful than revenue.
