7 Simple Mid-Campaign Adjustments for Better Results

Sometimes, even the best-planned fundraising campaigns need a little extra push halfway through to reach their goals. Maybe the donations aren’t coming in as quickly as expected, or perhaps donor engagement is lower than anticipated. The good news is that adjusting your approach mid-campaign is not only possible, but it’s often the key to success. Recently, we faced this exact scenario with a client. After reviewing the campaign’s progress, we noticed that it was falling short of expectations in terms of revenue and number of gifts. Rather than waiting and hoping things would turn around on their own, we worked with the client to make strategic changes that helped drive better results. Here are the steps we took to achieve that.

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.
