For the past five years I have worked with blackbaud, the world’s leading provider of cloud-based CRM software to the not-for-profit sector, on their Status of UK Fundraising Report. This report is based on a survey of the not-for-profit sector, it aims to provide insights for blackbaud to share with their customers and potential customers.
Louise Sparks, blackbaud’s content marketing manager, turns my powerpoint into a more digestible written report and last year it was downloaded over 2000 times. We both feel pretty proud of that.
This year though we’re taking things to another level. The report was run in two new markets: Canada and Australia/New Zealand and we’re sharing the findings of the UK report at blackbaud’s annual conference bbcon. More about bbcon here – Louise and I will be live on stage on the 17th of October.
Today though we joined each other on screen from our homes in opposite ends of the country to record the session for those who won’t be able to make it on the day.
Doing that sort of thing intimidates and energises me in equal measure. We prepared well and practiced hard and, once I stopped faffing around setting everything up I think we did a good job.
Here we are breathing a big sigh of relief at the end!
If you’re interested in seeing Louise and me on the big day you can register for bbcon here.
