Breaking Out of the Box: Special Reports with Spice
Session 8C

Session Description: 

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the number of custom reports that you are writing? Are they starting to sound stale? Maybe it's time to break out of the box. This session will provide you with a different view on custom reporting for major and principal donors. We'll talk about partnering with your development officers to create reports with spice, rethinking the medium of reports, and reevaluating what's best for the donor. Our goal is to create meaningful reports for our donors in order to build loyalty and trust. This session will help you think more strategically and creatively about your reporting.
