Diana Otero presented on tracking donor engagement and boosting fundraising efforts. She defined donor engagement as measuring all aspects of a donor's relationship, including giving history, email interactions, volunteer hours, and more. This engagement data provides valuable insights for fundraisers. She discussed how engagement leads to increased donor retention rates. Specifically, engaged repeat donors have higher retention rates than new donors. Otero outlined six benefits of tracking engagement, such as segmenting donors and creating personalized outreach. She also provided examples of engagement signals fundraisers can measure, like donation amounts and survey responses, as well as strategies to improve engagement through events, communications, and recognition.
