How to Get Donors (Backed by Science)

I have this really comprehensive article that I wrote walking through how to get donors. These methods are backed by science.

While you might not think of raising money as “sales,” it is a battle of persuasion. You basically have to convince someone else that giving money is in their best interest.

According to the social science of economics, we all only behave and make decisions based on our self-interest. So, how do you appeal to someone’s interest to get them to give?

Well, the video I put together shares exactly that, but I’ll give you a hint right here… emotions.

As human beings, our brains are filled up with two things: thoughts and feelings. We’re either thinking about how to solve problems, or wrapped up in our feelings about the world, things that are happening, and life.

In fact, we actually enjoy our emotions so much that we will go to big movie theaters just to sit there for two hours and feel different emotions.

You gotta appeal to a human’s emotions if you want to get them to buy a product or give money.

Why It’s All Different Today for NonProfits

In the past, a nonprofit might have to go door to door to solicit donations. They’d have to send out physical mailers to get on someone’s radar.

Now a days, anyone can have the power of an entire TV network simply through their social media channels.

A nonprofit can create a video that racks up hundreds of thousands of views on social media, leading to a surge of donations to their cause.

This means that you now have all of the tools that you need to kindle the emotions that lead to online giving. Honestly, what’s stopping you?

Not only that, but you can use the internet to build up an email list of people who actually want to receive information from you. That’s powerful!

This email list can be responsible for a burst of traffic on a campaign page. It can lead to a flurry of donations when you launch a new initiative.

All of these tools are available to you, but you must also use them effectively if you want to raise funds. You gotta know how to trigger emotions that lead to giving.

I’ve put together a new GUIDE that’s packed with science-backed nonprofit fundraising methods, resources, strategies, and killer marketing methods.
