We encourage you to attend one of these popular day after courses.
As many nonprofits already know, 80% of planned gifts that come through the door are in the form of a bequest. It’s the easiest gift to receive and administer out of all the planned giving methods. How do you promote the concept without repeating the same message to your audience all the time?
This seminar will not only teach you the latest trends and techniques that are used to increase response but attendees will also learn how to work with their professional advisors so their donors will be motivated to complete their will. Learn what works by increasing your marketing strategies in your print and electronic formats. It doesn’t take a gift planning expert to increase bequest response, just someone who is up to date with all the marketing strategies used today.
As an added bonus, this seminar will also briefly discuss running similar marketing campaigns for two other topics that will be popular this year, Gift Annuities and IRA Rollover. * Receive five free GiftCollege credits when you register!
