“We have people who like to participate in the silent auction even though they can’t come to the event so allowing people to bid virtually and view pictures of the items is very important.”
“It was the customer service and responsiveness of the Givebutter team that drew me in. It was immediate. It was personal. I definitely felt like I was not going to be alone during that process.”
"In the past, our in-person benefit [was] expensive to come to. If you weren't part of a corporate sponsorship, then you had to pay a ticket. So a good number of people, who were of good will, who did not have the money to pay for a ticket, were just left out of it. Within a peer-to-peer approach, we were able to welcome them into the celebration. And they responded extremely well to that."
"At Givebutter, we love the way that the donor’s in the driver's seat. They get to pick the tips. They get to pick whether or not they cover any of the fees. Do they want to be monthly? Do they want to do something specific they get to plan? They get to control it."
"Before, we were paying for a donor database with Bloomerang, an email tool with MailChimp, and then for any events, we would also have to pay to outsource ticketing. We ultimately chose Givebutter over other CRMs because it could do everything all in one."
"We really liked the Givebutter solution—it was free and very easy to use. We loved all of the classes and the support from the customer service representatives. We got lots and lots of help when we were setting up our platform and our CRM."
"Givebutter has many of the features you’d expect from a high-priced CRM, for free. One simple but important feature Givebutter already has is the option to get notified by email when someone donates. This enables us to send a timely thank you, from our inbox, without having to login to the CRM. This saves us time and brings in more money for our cause. I think this was the first giving season, and first time using a new platform, that we didn't receive at least one complaint. Frictionless for everyone."
