Finite revenues for many nonprofits at a time when they have open positions have become a tough road to travel. From workflow automation to easy setup fundraising pages, learn how your organization can benefit from Giveffect&#8217;s software.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But you may be able to think outside of the box to find out-of-the-box solutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>Giveffect can help<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just that simple.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Giveffect uses:<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Automation to automatically complete small tasks. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; An all-in-one system to run quick reports.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Modern templates to make emails and event pages look great will minimal effort.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Workflow automation to complete multi-step tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; A native all-in-one system to make sure everyone is on the same page.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The less time your employees spend doing \u201cbusy work\u201d that can be completed by automated systems, the more time they can do what they and you love, working with clients in the community.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, Giveffect clients report <\/span><b>30 hours saved per month<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on daily administrative tasks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s break down the different ways Giveffect can help do that.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>Automation to automatically complete small tasks<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some basic tasks are automated from the start in Giveffect. For example, if someone makes an online donation, they receive an emailed receipt. It\u2019s automatic.\u00a0\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2399 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.giveffect.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Labor-Market-Stress-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"429\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.giveffect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Labor-Market-Stress-2.png 580w, https:\/\/wordpress.giveffect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Labor-Market-Stress-2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/wordpress.giveffect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Labor-Market-Stress-2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/wordpress.giveffect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Labor-Market-Stress-2-360x360.png 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\" \/><\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For first-time donors who have had no prior experience with your nonprofit, as soon as he or she donates, the system creates a profile for that person and adds the donation to the newly created profile. Then it automatically sends the receipt.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And the system also automatically checks if the donor already has a profile, using the information they provided in the donation process. And if they are in the system, then the donation is added to their existing profile, along with any other donations, volunteering, memberships, events attended, fundraisers hosted, and more. And of course, the receipt is automatically sent. You don\u2019t need to worry about duplicate records.<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, you can always track that donation by name and resend the receipt with the press of a button if it is ever requested by the donor.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that\u2019s just one example. You can also automatically sync emails, use batch scanning and remote deposits, schedule and reschedule volunteers, schedule emails, payments, reminders, and much more. Giveffect can even work with your nonprofit to automate unique systems that you may have. For example, how Giveffect has a system to automate \u201csweat equity\u201d hours for Habitat for Humanity chapters.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>All-in-one system to run quick reports<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have already discussed how all the systems are in one place in Giveffect, but this also gives the added advantage of being able to run all of your reports in one place.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No need to import or export data to other systems to run cross-referenced reports, saving you time.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to run a report on how many of your volunteers donated this month? Easy Set up a few fields and find out! No uploading your volunteer list from another program and cross-referencing your donor list in another program. No cleaning of data. No reformatting.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That can save massive amounts of worker time and money. Also, it makes it far easier to run more reports that can dig even deeper into questions that you may not have had the manpower to even address in the past.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can create reports based on age, location, and more; cross-reference them by donations, events, volunteering, memberships, or all four. Each report could have taken hours to create in a prior system, and takes only a few minutes now.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Members in every department can have access to as much of the system as you decide. And the speed of the reports means that your staff has more time to be in the field working with clients or potential donors.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>Modern templates to make emails and event pages look great will minimal effort<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond the internal discussions and reports, the public perception of your nonprofit is critical. And many nonprofits don\u2019t have the budget to hire expensive designers. But Giveffect features modern templates that use \u201cwhat you see is what you get\u201d design that allows anyone to put together a nice email or event in a matter of minutes.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And as all your contacts are in the system, no need for uploading or downloading client lists into a separate email or event page system.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This allows you and your staff to easily send out emails that can be easily tailored to many different audiences, to have a larger, more direct impact. For example, you may have a monthly email, but you can use a volunteer story at the top for volunteers, and a donor story at the top of the email to donors.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And changes are easy and can be done instantly by you. No third party or another team to wait on. Edit and send emails and pages on your schedule.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These systems can save you and your staff hours a month creating emails and pages,\u00a0 allowing everyone to do work more critical to your cause.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>Workflow automation to complete multi-step tasks<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Giveffect recently expanded its workflow automation process. Now you can set up entire drip streams for your marketing, including emails, text messages, tasks, and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, this system will allow you to create an automated email, then based on the client&#8217;s actions, if they open the email or not, you can set the second set of scheduled automated actions. If they open the email, you can follow up with a text message in a few days. But if they don\u2019t open the email, you can set a task for an employee to personally touch base the next week.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The workflow can continue on with multiple paths based on the client\u2019s continued actions, including multiple emails, text messages, tasks, and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This \u201cdrip\u201d allows you to set up an entire workflow one time and it can be carried out for weeks or months automatically. Which saves you and your staff time. Set it once and forget it. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more:<br \/><\/span><\/h5>\n<div style=\"width: 1140px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-2397-1\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" poster=\"https:\/\/www.giveffect.com\/nonprofit-resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/17.jpg\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.giveffect.com\/nonprofit-resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Workflow-Automation.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.giveffect.com\/nonprofit-resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Workflow-Automation.mp4\">https:\/\/www.giveffect.com\/nonprofit-resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Workflow-Automation.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><b>A Native all-in-one system<\/b><\/h5>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Giveffect was designed to be a complete system for nonprofits from the very beginning.\u00a0 This is a system that would natively work with donors, fundraisers, volunteers, events and event staff, members clients, and more.
