Direct Media Introduces the Online Fundraising Jumpstart Program

Greenwich, Conn. - May 5, 2008: Direct Media’s e-Marketing Group has introduced an end to end online marketing solution, specifically designed for fundraisers and nonprofit organizations.

The Jumpstart Program provides all services and support for an organization to implement an effective email communication and marketing strategy. It’s also an ideal package for organizations that have begun an online program, but have found they don’t have the time or resources to produce a meaningful ROI.

“We know how important this is for fundraisers, but we also know it can be quite challenging and at times, pretty intimidating” states CEO, Larry May. “We’re fortunate that we have the internal resources to help them get started or expand their online efforts, at very reasonable, all-inclusive costs”.

Components of the program include email design and copywriting, email delivery and tracking, email append, CAN-SPAM compliance, strategic planning and multi-channel integration. A nonprofit with no email or web-based experience can be communicating with donors and collecting online contributions within 4 weeks.

For nonprofits with an established online presence, specific services can be provided wherever needed.
