In a recent blog post, we introduced QuickStarts for Nonprofits and discussed common operational and data management hurdles faced by nonprofit organizations. With over 14 years of experience advancing digital transformation, we created QuickStarts leveraging Salesforce and Amp Impact, implementable in as little as six weeks. In this blog, we’ll dive deeper into QuickStarts for Fundraising.
What is a QuickStart for Fundraising?
Our Fundraising QuickStarts enable organizations to better engage with donors by providing a comprehensive view of individual and institutional supporters, activity history, and their areas of interest. This insight allows for targeted outreach to segmented groups, driving greater and longer-term commitments. Operational teams can efficiently plan activities, manage budgets, and track commitments and payments, while organizations can plan fundraising strategies using detailed reports and dashboards.
What to Expect: Our Project Deliverables
As a QuickStart customer, you’ll start with a fully functional solution and receive tools for adoption and technical documentation, including a user guide, a system requirements document with user stories, a field map, and a dedicated Salesforce Trailmix. You’ll also receive detailed system design documents, including a data model illustrating relevant Salesforce and Amp Impact objects and their relationships.
What is Not Included
Alongside delivering a new operational solution and accompanying documentation, the following falls outside the scope of the QuickStart process:
- Payment gateway to process donations
- Donor Portal
- Multi-currency and multi-language support
- Custom data migration
- Custom automation features
- Custom data security and visibility requirements
- Integration with other software
These features can be integrated in later stages after the QuickStart solution is launched, budgeted based on your individual needs.
