AI Is Affecting Your Cultivation

from Grow Gelt

AI is changing the way we relate to each other, and that changes how we cultivate donors. In this episode I talk about the three ways people are using AI, why a letter from 1800 got more attention than an email does today, what happens to phone calls once AI reminds everyone to make them, and why the time you spend face to face with your donors is going to matter more than ever. There's also an action item for your December fundraising. And yes, after almost a year away, I'm back, and AI is the reason. 0:00 Where I've been 1:16 How AI is changing the world 2:42 The three ways people use AI 4:48 A letter in the 1800s, and why effort matters 7:58 What AI does to personal messages 8:59 Why phone calls matter, and an action item for December 11:05 More time for one-on-ones 12:36 An example: the $18,000 donor 14:30 Wrapping up Music: "Inspired" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0
