Summer is a good time to slow down and check the quiet gaps in your fundraising…before Giving Season prep picks up speed.
This episode is a fan favorite, back for our July summer rewind series.
Donors haven't stopped giving. They've just gotten more careful, and that means small friction points matter more than they used to. Jena Lynch and Britt Stockert talk through three quiet "leak points", a slow checkout, under-positioned recurring giving, and fading event momentum… and how to fix them without a bigger campaign or a strategy overhaul.
What You'll Learn
- Why small friction costs more when donors are being cautious
- How to make recurring giving visible and easy to choose
- Why in-person energy needs an instant way to give
- A simple way to check your own donation experience
