Event Details


In 2022, no fundraising channel stands alone and attribution only tells half the story.

Donor experiences on one channel impact giving on others and donors of all generations and levels are now reachable on multiple channels.

Siloed and single channel strategies leave donor attention and revenue on the table which can make or break your program, particularly during a time of decreasing response rates and high inflation.

That's why it's more urgent than ever for fundraisers to have a global understanding of all fundraising channels regardless of what their specialty is.

Fortunately, helping fundraisers become more well-rounded is Data Strategy Forum's mission and why we're excited to come together in person on October 18 for what may be the most important Data Strategy Forum ever. 

Topics covered will include: 

  • Lessons on how to make omnichannel work from prominent non-profit thought leaders
  • The latest news on data privacy legislation and how it impacts your work
  • The art and science of cross-channel attribution
  • Groundbreaking multi-channel case studies
  • Dynamic payment strategies for direct mail and digital fundraising
  • Direct Mail co-targeting with Connected TV
  • The latest and greatest Giving Tuesday strategies
  • Tips on navigating paper shortages and production delays

Plus, so much more including a candid All-Star Panel focusing on the fundraising headwinds in 2022 and opportunities that down markets create.

Whether your day-to-day responsibilities are focused on direct mail, email, social media, or all of the above you'll leave Data Strategy Forum better informed and better prepared to fundraise in a difficult market. You simply won't find a mix of speakers this diverse and experienced anywhere else.

It truly is an "all of the above" fundraising showcase. Join us on October 18 and find out why Data Strategy Forum is the best educational value in fundraising.
