A/B Tests

Recorded On: 03/07/2024

OVERVIEW

How do you know what's working and what's not in your fundraising appeals? One way to find out is through A/B tests. By proactively testing the variables in your appeals—envelopes, signatories, subject lines, ask amounts, and more—you can collect data that will show what's resonating with different donor segments. Doing so will not only help you develop more effective strategies and make the most of your limited resources, but it will ensure that your donors receive appeals that are fresh, meaningful, and compelling.

Register now for your entire team to learn how to implement and analyze A/B testing as part of your direct appeals strategy.
