PRESS RELEASE
Convio, Inc. and StrategicOne Conduct First Comprehensive Study Quantifying Impact of Online Engagement on Giving: "Convio, Inc. and StrategicOne Conduct First Comprehensive Study Quantifying Impact of Online Engagement on Giving
Online Constituent Relationship Management (eCRM) Improves Rate of Giving by Offline Donors
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Convio, Inc., in partnership with StrategicOne, LLC, have conducted the nonprofit sector's first comprehensive study quantifying the impact of online engagement (eCRM) and multi-channel marketing on overall giving. The data, presented at the DMANF conference in Washington, DC, shows that online engagement improves how much offline (direct mail) donors give each year and the rate at which they renew (retention rates) even if they continue to give solely in the mail. If they opt to give online as well, i.e. become multi-channel, their rate of giving and retention rate increases further.
Details of the research have been published in a whitepaper, “Integrating Online Marketing (eCRM) with Direct Mail Fundraising: Adding a New Communication and Donation Channel Increases Donations,” available at http://www.convio.com/impaper."

STAMFORD, Conn., Jan. 22, 2007 -- The St. Joseph’s Neighborhood Center in Rochester, N.Y., relies on 160 volunteers to provide healthcare services that cover more than 3,000 uninsured or underinsured patients - or 18,000 visits - every year.
Yet every single appointment has to be scheduled in a plain old paper calendar by hand.
That’s about to change, thanks to Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX) employee Patrick Waara. He’s spending the next year at St. Joseph’s to build a new computerized system for appointment and volunteer scheduling and all patient records, bringing a whole new level of efficiency to the nonprofit organization. 'I can’t wait to see the productivity gains,' Waara says."
