We also explore the advantages and disadvantages of some specific channels, including press ads, inserts and DRTV – and show you how to get the most out of them with your targeting and creative.

This session was part of our series of Friday Fundraising Calls, which take place on the first Friday of every month (or thereabouts) and aim to bring fundraisers together and share some ideas and insights on how to do fundraising better. In each episode we are joined by a senior, experienced fundraiser to share their insights and experiences on a topic of particular practical interest and importance – from how to recruit new supporters to how to get the best from cash appeals.
We’ve got some great people lined up in the coming months so please do sign up to our mailing list to receive news of future sessions and sign up for them. Sign up here http://eepurl.com/dkMhLv
