Where are we now?

But is that the problem?Results have been declining for years for most channels
More and more charities
Channels are all congested
Supporter engagement is extremely low
Attrition is increasing steadily
Additional restrictions will just make this worse
![Page 5: What can we achieve together? Audience strategy conference, 26 May 2016](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042722/589f517f1a28abec418b603f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The future: EngagementMore engaged donors = more loyal donors
Engaged non givers > donors
Passive recipients of charity messages > advocates and champions
Move from one way broadcast communications to genuine dialogue
At last a relationship with supporters
All charities want to do this. But how?

How do we get good stories?Hard to know where they are
Never get them in time
Written in project speak
Don’t get good enough photos or videos
Not a priority for project staff

ImplicationsWhat donors need as feedback and what NGOs need to monitor programme effectiveness is the same info
So this is not just a marketing/fundraising tool but a programme management system
NGO marketing and programme management staff getting the same information at the same (real) time
Partners also use the same system
![Page 24: What can we achieve together? Audience strategy conference, 26 May 2016](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042722/589f517f1a28abec418b603f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Making it workTechnology is easy part
Must engage project staff
Must become part of their day job
Must work for them
Need proper training in how to identify and tell good stories & taking good photos and video
Needs proper plan to deploy content across range of channels
Feedback is essential so they know it’s being used
