Convio for Issue Advocacy

Engaging constituents to take action, contribute and spread the word is an ongoing challenge for issue advocacy organizations. Success means not only generating response quickly around a specific issue, but also building a loyal base of ongoing support for your advocacy and fundraising efforts.

Convio's Internet solutions are designed to help foster strong relationships with constituents that will move them to take action, make contributions and involve others in the work that you do. Convio makes it possible for you to use the Internet strategically to:

• Quickly mobilize people to take action immediately in support of urgent issues,
• Raise funds quickly around timely issues,
• Reach out with greater frequency by using email and other online tools,
• Manage donor database records to enhance your constituent relationships,
• Integrate online fundraising, advocacy and communications to get the most out of each constituent relationship,
• Personalize online action alerts and appeals based on constituent interests to maximize response, and
• Create a committed corps of constituents that you can count on in the long term — not only to act and to contribute, but also to encourage others to help out.

Convio provides a suite of software and services to help you manage fundraising and outreach programs over the Internet. You can purchase the full suite or only the products you need now, and add products and services as your needs grow:

• Fundraising to create direct-response online fundraising campaigns,
• Email Marketing for developing online relationships through targeted email communications,
• Advocacy to send and manage action alerts for increased constituent participation in advocacy campaigns,
• Web Content Management for attracting and retaining constituents with compelling, personalized online content,
• eCommerce for raising money through online product sales,
• Constituent360™ online database for gathering and using constituent information,
• DataSync for synchronization with your existing donor database, and
• Common Ground™ donor database solution for managing all constituent relationships.

Having the right software tools is just one component of success. You also need the know-how to help you meet your objectives. Our Client Success Services team can help you define and execute your Internet marketing plans to drive and measure results. Convio also provides industry-leading training programs, technical and product usage support and account managers who understand the unique needs of nonprofit organizations.
