There’s no doubt that nearly every business, including nonprofits, faced intense disruption in the year 2020. As is the case with any unexpected change, also comes the opportunity to decide how we’ll respond. For most of us, that meant doubling down on a digital-first approach to life as we know it, both personally and professionally.
When we look specifically at how the pandemic affected nonprofits, leaders said the top challenge six months into the COVID-19 pandemic was fundraising.
It’s also worth noting that fundraising efforts were and remain increasingly complex due to organization’s inability to engage with members at scale.
Think about the last time you visited your doctor for a moment. Did you fill out the same stack of paperwork as you did the last time around? This is incredibly frustrating and time consuming for both the patient and office staff responsible for processing it.
Even prior to the COVID pandemic, many of us expected a more modern experience from the brands and organizations we interact with on a regular basis.
Nonprofits are no exception. Which is why it came as no surprise when the pandemic prompted many to ditch their painfully manual processes for volunteer sign-ups, donations, sponsorships, and more.
Since fundraising is often the leading use case for Salesforce within a nonprofit, sometimes this means the operations side of the house takes a back seat.
With Formstack for Salesforce, nonprofits have the tools to streamline workflows above and beyond fundraising. The result? No more manually keying in donation forms, and more time to focus on advancing their cause. That’s because the addition of Formstack gives nonprofits an easy way to collect data, generate documents, and collect eSignatures, writing that information back to records in Salesforce.
Plus, the tight integration between the two platforms enables nonprofits to deliver the seamless, memorable experiences that keep members engaged.
