We've all had to adapt in the past year, as the ways we contact donors have evolved. With a focus on immediate, maximizing short-term and long-term ROI, the RNL team has risen to the challenge and transformed our platforms. This includes the now fully-remote capable RNL Engage digital engagement center platform (formerly CAMPUSCALL) and RNL Digital Giving powered by ScaleFunder to fuel crowdfunding, giving days, and customized giving pages.
With over 200 updates to RNL platforms in 2020, we've been hard at work to provide you with the tools to maximize donor engagement in this challenging time. This webinar explores what's new, what's coming next, and how institutions like yours have used this new technology for success.
Watch this webinar to hear about:
- How integration across channels, like phone, text, and personalized video (ThankView) maximize donor engagement and boost results.
- New features in crowdfunding and giving days like ambassador engagement, new challenge and match technology, and digital wallets that allow you to accept gifts in ways your donors prefer like Apple Pay and Venmo.
- Enhancements to all the technology to make it easier to use, to see results quickly, and stay flexible in a remote environment.
We provide a full overview of "what's new" in fundraising technology, and you'll leave with new ideas on how to transform your donor engagement.
