Constituent Tracking in Salesforce Kelly Hardebeck Director of Applications Development, Year Up Co-leader Boston Nonprofit Salesforce User Group
Identify Constituent Types • What groups of people does your nonprofit interact with? • Who do you serve? • Who supports your mission? • How do they support your mission? • Do you have an ongoing relationship with them?
Identify Data Needs/Relationships • What information do you need about this constituent type? • Is it important to see all information? • Is there a lifecycle to the relationship?
Lifecycle Relationships • Follow a natural progression • Prospect, applicant, student • Development lead, donor • Move between different levels of engagement • Ideally from less engaged to more engaged
Complementary Relationships • Different types of engagement=different relationships • Volunteer • Supervisor • Newsletter subscriber • Board member • Capture each interaction/touch point • Scorecard
Identify/Create the Process • Identify must-have and nice-to-have information • What’s required and optional? • How does a lead become a contact? • What additional information is needed to convert someone from a low-value state to a higher-value state? • What event triggers that conversion? • Which interactions are important to store? • Who’s managing the process?
