What does Digital Strategy include?
Do you feel like your digital fundraising is stuck on repeat every year? At Doing Good Digital, we strive to create standout programs that drive results. Our three-phase strategy enhances acquisition, retention, and engagement, along with strategies tailored to your unique goals. We focus on personalized impact, focusing on critical moments of gratitude to increase response rates and donor upgrades across all channels.

"In addition to being highly professional, fun, and holding themselves accountable for delivering high quality work, the team at Doing Good Digital has been a valuable partner in our efforts to build and scale up digital philanthropy outreach across our growing system of hospitals and clinical centers. The Doing Good Digital team has integrated smoothly into our existing direct response fundraising program, helping our digital strategy become more robust. Thanks to their expertise, during a time when resources are tight, especially in health care, our DGD team has consistently come to the table with a positive and creative approach that has helped us maximize our impact while staying on budget. They have helped us develop more efficient production work streams and provided regular analysis, keeping our decisions strategic and informed by data. We feel fortunate to have them as part of our team!"
"As a development director with little to no professional experience in digital fundraising and marketing, our partnership with Doing Good Digital was just what our food bank needed. After attending Feeding America’s Digital Strategy Institute in 2023, we learned that we didn’t need to know how to do everything ourselves but could partner with an experienced agency. That’s exactly what we found with Doing Good Digital. They provide the expertise and tools we need to enhance our digital acquisition, retention, and engagement programs."
“A true partner. We love working with Doing Good Digital! Their team is not only super skilled in digital marketing but also genuinely passionate about helping us achieve our mission. They've been friendly, creative, and incredibly effective since day one. Thanks to their innovative strategies, our fundraising efforts have soared, and we’re connecting with more people than ever. They understand what nonprofits need and go above and beyond to ensure our success. We can't recommend Doing Good Digital enough—they're simply the best!”

5 of Our Favorite Year-End Fundraising Emails
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.
How to Grow Your Email List
Building a strong email list is more than just gathering names—it's about creating meaningful relationships, even digitally, that can propel your nonprofit’s mission forward. Your email list gives you a direct line to supporters who care about your cause, whether they’re potential donors, volunteers, or advocates. It’s an efficient and budget-friendly way to keep your community engaged and informed.
