HopeGives makes email simple. At the beginning of your campaign, we encourage you to run a minimum of a three-week email campaign.
Launching Your Email Campaign
- Click the Share button on your campaign.
- Grab the link, or click Email to open your native email app with the link already included.
- Add your recipients and write your email. Be specific, invite them into the story, and always include a call to action: Pray, Share, or Give.
Emailing Your Existing Donors
You can also email the donors who have already given to your campaign.
- Click Email Donors, then Compose an Email.
- Select the donor you want to email, or select all donors.
- Browse from templates, such as a campaign update template. You can insert variables to personalize the email, like first names and campaign title.
- Send it out to the donors who've already given. This is a powerful way to share updates, keep them informed, and thank them.
Final Push Emails
Another great template is the final push email, encouraging your donors to help you cross the finish line as your deadline approaches. Example: "We're almost there, just a couple of days remaining."
Why This Step Matters
An important part of a successful campaign is getting consistent emails out to your donor list.
