RNIB Raffle to Committed Gift Initiative

RNIB Raffle to Committed Gift Initiative
• A Great Opportunity - there were 1.7m Raffle players on
the database, 1.5m had never been asked for any other
donations.
• Buying this much data would cost us up to £900k and data
on our database is free!
• Direct Debit gifts are worth more to RNIB than Raffle
donations or cash - they are a reliable, continuous
income source.
• The opportunity to cross-sell was there, but how would
it work?
18
What we did
• We needed internal buy in so the business case was
written using the evidence base we had gathered using a
test campaign.
• Predictive model developed to identify the best prospects
from the 1.5m donors.
• Raffle donors respond well to phone calls, so we decided to
call them to ask for a Direct Debit gift.
• We enlisted 3 telemarketing agencies to work on the
campaign so that we could benchmark campaign
performance, attrition levels and supporter feedback.
19
What we did
• The raffle team at this time were in a separate department
to the Committed Giving team so a lot of cross
communication was need
• We were careful to plan the calls around the raffle
programme, so that donors were not called too often.
• We thanked these raffle players for their support, talked
to them about a range of RNIB's services and asked for a
Direct Debit gift.
20
The results
• We've called 500,000 raffle players in 3 years
• 20,000 new Direct Debits to RNIB so far.
• Attrition has been really low - around 12% compared to
50%+ for other Direct Debit donors
• Continuing to bank for the raffle
• Other cross sell opportunities for example Weekly
Lottery
• The IoF were so impressed especially with our Insight
work on this, we won an award!
