Finding Major Donors Amidst Members
With no shortage of members, The National World War II Museum required a novel solution to identify, qualify, and prioritize prospects for major gift officer case loads.
The National World War II Museum was recognized as a winner in the 2017 TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice™ awards for museums, ranking No.2 globally and No.2 in the nation. With praise like that, it’s no wonder that hundreds of thousands of people visit each year. For the development team that means they face the difficult (and worthy!) challenge of prioritizing prospects for making major and legacy gifts.
With the implementation of MarketSmart’s Engagement Fundraising system, hundreds of qualified and prioritized prospects have been identified.
Colleges, universities, and research institutions that MarketSmart supports.
Piloting Engagement Fundraising at OSU
With a targeted deployment of 10,000 email addresses, The Ohio State University uncovered dozens of previously undisclosed planned gifts, and hundreds of qualified leads.
Given the nature of legacy giving, return on investment can be hard to measure. However, with The Ohio State University’s pilot of MarketSmart’s Engagement Fundraising, the return looks crystal clear. With over 500,000 living alumni, MarketSmart began by targeting a small segment of 10,000 constituents.
The initial results? Dozens of planned gifts disclosed, hundreds of highly qualified leads, and thousands more constituents left to engage.

Cultivating Thousands of Planned Gift Prospects
How WWF-Canada integrated MarketSmart’s Engagement Fundraising System into a busy marketing calendar in an effort to cultivate legacy giving donors.
One of the most well respected conservation organizations in the world, World Wildlife Fund strives to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. To pursue their noble cause, WWF-Canada requires sophisticated partners that are able to integrate with internal teams.
MarketSmart implemented their Engagement Fundraising system, and since then has cultivated thousands of legacy giving prospects saving an estimated 3,600 hours of staff time.

Thousands of Leads Prioritized For Outreach
With a robust digital footprint, and an equally sophisticated development operation, Fred Hutch needed a partner, not a vendor, to come in and support their planned giving program.
NCI designated cancer centers are incredibly robust entities, and Fred Hutch is no different. The sprawling development team required a partner to support them in the planned giving space. MarketSmart’s Engagement Fundraising system was put in place, and hundreds of qualified prospects where uncovered.
Through multiple website redesigns (to match evolving brand guidelines), MarketSmart supported Fred Hutch as any partner should — with a “can-do” attitude, and a knack for meeting deadlines.
Child sponsorship, public benefit, and housing organizations MarketSmart supports.
A Multi-Year Planned Gift Strategy
Girl Scouts of America needed a partner who could supply not only strategy, but technology. MarketSmart’s multi-year plan and program has fit the bill.
One of the most recognizable brands in America, the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, came to MarketSmart looking to enhance their legacy giving efforts. Within months of implementation MarketSmart was able to uncover over one hundred previously undisclosed planned gifts for Girl Scouts’ development team to steward.
With a combination of print and digital engagement efforts, MarketSmart was able to drastically enhance Girl Scouts’ planned giving program.
Religious media, services, and program oriented organizations MarketSmart supports.

Since 2017, MarketSmart has supported Catholic Extension’s development program with an integrated digital and direct mail Engagement Fundraising system. Through the use of Engagement Efforts, MarketSmart has been able to qualify and prioritize hundreds of prospects for gift officer outreach, and is automatically cultivating hundreds more.
