CRM Selection Consulting
Donor Management Systems are not one-size-fits all
While there are a plethora of great systems on the market, not all of them are well-suited for your organization. With so many to choose from, it’s often overwhelming to know where to start.
Our in-depth knowledge of many CRM systems (as well as our familiarity with most other systems currently on the market) allows us to provide you with unbiased recommendations for the best CRMs for the unique needs of your organization.
We go beyond just presenting you with recommendations, we help manage your project from assessment through onboarding, taking the lead on appointment setting, and communications with the CRM sales reps.
We ensure your questions are answered and that you choose the most cost-effective onboarding package.
How it Works
We’ll start with a 60-minute introductory consultation. Then, once we decide to work together and schedule your project, we’ll start the CRM selection process:
Step 1: Selection Consultation ($75)
Your project starts with a 60 minute consultation to discuss your current challenges, desired features, integration needs, recurring transactions, budget limitations, and timelines.
Based on your individual needs, we’ll make initial recommendations of CRM for your considerations, and review pros and cons of each system as you begin the process.
A $75 charge for this consultation, which will be credited towards the total project cost when you book our full CRM selection services.
Step 2: Needs Assessment with Full Recommendations
Once you book full CRM selection, you’ll receive a report of 2-3 recommended donor management systems including estimated costs, pros and cons, stand-out features, etc…
Using a screen-share, we’ll walk you through a brief demo of each recommended system as we review your report and decide which CRMs to review in greater-depth.
Step 3: In-depth System Demos (Optional)
Cost: $750 (less the previous $75 fee from Step 1).
We’ll work with you to schedule virtual appointments with each CRM sales team for a detailed demonstration of each potential system.
We’ll ask questions on your behalf and address potential issues based on our previous experience with the product and your individual needs.
Step 4: Final System Selection
Additional Cost: $750
We’ll meet to debrief, review proposals, discuss onboarding packages, and answer any remaining questions. Once you make a determination we’ll outline next steps.
We’ll be there to guide you through the onboarding process and ensure your system is set up correctly from the start.
