This one day free seminar organised jointly by the Premium Rate Regulator PhonepayPlus and the Association for Interactive Media and Entertainment (AIME) provides the opportunity for charities to learn how to get started and maximise text based donations, Gift Aid, post donation marketing, regular gifting and competitions.

Text fundraising has grown to a £120 million pound opportunity with most charities finding new donors and differing demographics through this easy mechanism. Are you maximising your donation footprint in this growth market?

During this seminar, you will learn about:

  • Why 70xxx shortcodes are important
  • How to get started with text donations
  • Codes of practice for text donations
  • Latest developments in Gift Aid
  • The emerging role of a Gift Aid intermediary
  • Improving marketing footprint
  • Effective post-donation marketing
  • Competitions with donation elements
  • Proposed changes to regular donations

If you don’t currently use text donation for your fundraising, this seminar will provide a good introduction for you.

If you are already using text donations, this event will be looking at improving your skills and maximising your donation and Gift Aid opportunities.

With several expert speakers already lined up and more to be announced this will be an informative day not to be missed.

If you are a charity you can get your FREE tickets (maximum 2 per charity) here: Seminar Tickets
