Keep, Lift, Move: The Three Objectives of a Successful Mid-Level Program
More and more non-profits are discovering that mid-level is the key to a healthy donor pipeline. If you’re wondering where to find more major donors, the answer is almost always: look to your mid-level donors.
But how do you know if your mid-level program is working as it should? At Veritus, we evaluate mid-level programs based on three key objectives: Keep, Lift, and Move. When you measure each of these components, you’ll be able to see the real impact of your mid-level program in growing your donor pipeline.
For this podcast episode, Richard and Jeff hand it over to Lisa and Kara, two of our in-house experts on mid-level programs, for a conversation about how to approach your mid-level goals and KPIs so that you can retain more donors and move those who are ready into major gifts.
Show Highlights: In this episode, you’ll learn about…
- How to measure and report on the success of your mid-level program, and the three main KPIs for mid-level:
- Keep – What are your donor retention and attrition rates for mid-level?
- Lift – How many mid-level donors are increasing their giving year over year?
- Move – How many of your mid-level donors are you moving into major gifts?
- Getting a baseline for your donor attrition rates and average gift sizes. (You can request our free donor file analysis here.)
- What kind of timeline to expect before you see results from a new mid-level program.
