LISTEN ON APPLE | LISTEN ON SPOTIFY

What would it mean for your nonprofit if you could unlock the secrets of email marketing and increase your fundraising exponentially? That’s precisely what we’re unpacking in this episode with Tim Sarrantonio, Director of Corporate Brand at Neon One, and Cherian Koshy, VP of Development at Merit America. Neon One has analyzed over 30,000 campaigns and 150 million emails from 1,500 nonprofits – all to discover the trends and benchmarks that will take your email marketing to the next level.

Did you know that emotional subject lines could dramatically increase open rates? That’s one of the trends we pinpointed from the report. However, many nonprofits are missing the mark in this area. 

We also discuss why smaller organizations often outperform larger ones, the shocking underutilization of GivingTuesday as a fundraising opportunity, and practical tools for managing your email list.

Cherian brings valuable insights from his experience with AI sentiment analysis and how it can potentially transform your email strategy. 

We were surprised by the performance of the word ‘newsletter’ in subject lines and we can’t wait to share the insights with you. 

The episode wraps with a sneak peek into their upcoming GivingTuesday and End of Year data report, which will further equip you with key insights to refine your email marketing and fundraising efforts. 

You won’t want to miss it!
