Identify Major Donors with Comprehensive Prospect Research Tools

Blackbaud solutions are designed to help you identify and prioritize prospects based on their financial capacity as well as their propensity to give.

• Biographical information Blackbaud’s data scientists leverage advanced analytic techniques and decades of experience to build accurate models that combine wealth with multi-faceted behavioral and demographic data to predict a prospect’s likelihood to give to your organization. Models predict likelihood to give to various programs including, major, planned, and annual. Custom models can also incorporate your organization’s constituent data to further tailor predictions specifically to you.

Quantify giving potential across prospects, portfolios and campaigns. What is a reasonable goal for your upcoming capital campaign? Which portfolios are underperforming?
