Hi and welcome to the digital fundraising blog. If you're a fundraiser or nonprofit marketer seeking to understand digital fundraising better, this is the place for you.
All posts are written by me, James Herlihy, a dedicated digital fundraiser and campaigner. Since 2006, I've worked with nonprofits and fundraising agencies around the world, first from Australia, then The Netherlands and France. I'm now a solo consultant (with a great network of strategic and creative professionals) and am located in the south of France.
I love working with people and organisations that strive for a better world. I also love transformative tech. With the Digital Fundaising Blog, I'm aiming to combine these passions to produce content that helps fundraisers succeed with digital fundraising – and raise more money for their excellent causes.
I'm aiming to create straightforward content with a mix of strategy, examples and tips. From my experience, the biggest potential gains for most nonprofits are still in the area of fundamentals – a usable and inspiring website, easy donation forms and campaign pages, email list growth, improving your email program, more effective emergency response, better storytelling – and not in the untested waters of real innovation. So I'll aim to skew my content towards those fundamentals of digital fundraising; the tried, tested and proven strategies and channels that nonprofits should master first.
The best copywriters use simple language that's easy to read. I'm not event close to being one of the best copywriters, but I will try to keep it simple and accessible.
I love feedback. Please get in touch or drop me a comment below if you have any.
And if you need support for your digital project or strategy, you can schedule me for a free, 30 minute consultation call.
Thanks and I hope you find the content useful!
James
