1. Be proactive - There is always something you can do to move the Matching Gift needle. 2. Finding them is the easy part - the real trick is effectively marketing/communicating to your Matching Gift eligible donors. 3. Don't make excuses as to why you can't grow this area of giving - just start. 4. Advocate internally - make a case for an expense budget to begin trying new marketing efforts. 5. Build a team! Every time you grow your MG revenue, you need to think about the impact on the personnel.
23
1. ASK! In as many ways as you can, keep the message in front of the donor. Where do you work? Will your company match? Will you please help us get the match so we can do more?
