Brady’s Top Quotes:
“Far too often, we’ve gone about fundraising without research and evidence, which I think is why giving is stagnating and actually declining in terms of the number of people giving.”
“You don’t need to know but you need to have a process to know how to know. That’s what testing is. I don’t know if you should send 3 emails or 6. But I know how to run a test to figure out if you should run 3 emails or 6.”
“How can you be more transparent? How can you be more communicative and authentic? Those things will lead you to success whether you’re in a pandemic or not in a pandemic.”
“The biggest piece is message, message, message. It’s the biggest driver of donations and revenue. Answer that question of why someone should give to you today. And not enough organizations do a really good job of answering that question.”
