Background:
Bound is a non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating homelessness by sharing individual stories and providing personalized support. Based in Salt Lake City, Bound aims to humanize homelessness and foster a more compassionate community.
The Problem:
Bound faced challenges in scaling its mission due to limited digital outreach and inefficient donor engagement strategies. Traditional methods of storytelling and fundraising were not effectively reaching a broader audience or driving sufficient engagement to support their mission.
The Solution:
Recognizing the need for a strategic digital overhaul, Bound partnered with a top-tier web design agency to implement a comprehensive go-to-market consulting approach, focusing on:
- Sales Funnel Design: A revamped website was created with an intuitive sales funnel, guiding visitors from awareness to action. The funnel included clear calls-to-action, personalized content, and seamless navigation, ensuring potential donors could easily engage with Bound's mission.
- Email Sequencing: Automated email campaigns were developed to nurture leads, keeping subscribers informed and engaged with impactful stories and updates. The email sequences were designed to convert casual readers into committed supporters, using personalized messaging and strategic timing.
- Paid Advertising: Targeted paid advertising campaigns were launched to increase visibility and attract new donors. These campaigns leveraged Bound’s compelling storytelling, driving traffic to the website and converting visitors into contributors.
The Result:
The implementation of these digital strategies yielded significant results for Bound:
- Increased Donor Engagement: The optimized sales funnel and email sequences led to a 45% increase in donor engagement, with more visitors taking action on the website.
- Expanded Donor Base: The targeted paid advertising campaigns brought in a wave of new supporters, expanding Bound’s donor base by 35% within six months.
- Improved Conversion Rates: The streamlined website and personalized email sequences improved conversion rates, with a notable increase in recurring donations.
- Enhanced Mission Impact: With a stronger online presence and more robust engagement tools, Bound was able to amplify its impact, helping more individuals move from homelessness to stability.
