I’m excited about data visualization because it allows me to create dynamic shboards that tell a story about a particular strategic initiative or campaign. This makes it easier for your leadership teams to digest the data and understand what you show them. And once they’re built, they will be automatically refreshed, so you don’t have to manage manual downloads.

Connecticut Public is very excited about our transition to Revolution CRM. We see tons of opportunities for improved member management, efficiencies in workflow, and a big improvement in UX with a more intuitive and easy-to-use interface than Salesforce. The project management and support from the ROI team is unparalleled, and we’re excited to be working with a knowledgeable and dedicated partner.

Working at Defenders of Wildlife has been my first experience with Revolution CRM. I’ve used many systems in the past, and I’ve been amazed at how easy it has been to acclimate to their user interface, figure out where everything is, and quickly view the data we have stored in the solution.

ROI Solutions stands out from other vendors in their approach to partnership. Unlike some of our other partners who frequently push for more licenses or new technologies, ROI Solutions focuses on enhancing the efficiency of our existing setup to help us achieve our mission. This approach aligns with our goals and fosters a true partnership. Our mission is ROI’s mission. We share mutual respect, which sets our experience with ROI Solutions apart.

Revolution CRM’s architecture makes connecting and integrating with different partners easy. It is critical because each partner is best of breed for us and serves our purposes best.

I’ve seen the product evolve over the years to allow for managing not just one type of program, mission, or nonprofit but all different types of organizations. All different kinds of clients can use the same software but implement it in a specific way to support their business processes.

“It’s ROI Solutions’ industry knowledge, care in our partnership, and appreciation of our mission that makes such a difference. You’re not just a checked box on someone’s schedule to show if something’s red or green that week. In a sea of vendors, it’s hard to know who you can really trust. ROI Solutions has never failed us, and they’ve been consistent in terms of performance and support for our staff.”

We had two teams, two CRMs, countless different procedures, and a challenging road ahead. Our ROI implementation team made us feel comfortable and confident from day one. They thoughtfully guided us through the entire process offering guidance through suggested best practices and allowing us to forge our own path. They were thorough and kept us on track, and we could launch even a few days ahead of our projected timeline!

We were looking to develop more 1:1 relationships with our members, but to do that, we needed to reallocate resources and find efficiencies. The ability to rethink our old processes at once generated those efficiencies. We had a vastly improved sustainer billing process, one of the most measurable out-of-the-box improvements, with over 57,000 sustainers. Now many people on our gift processing team can focus on our members rather than spending time keying data.

ROI Solutions offers unparalleled client service. Human Rights Campaign has worked with them since 2001, and they are a true partner. Sometimes, when we have a really sticky wicket, we feel like ROI Solutions is part of the Human Rights Campaign. There’s no “us” and “them.” It is rare to have a relationship like that with a database provider for 23 years and to be happy and trust that they have your best interests at heart. Most nonprofits don’t have that. Many marriages don’t have that!

The Client Services Account Team that supports Defenders of Wildlife is absolutely incredible! They are there to answer questions or help us figure out any issues we are facing. Their knowledge of our system use and ability to ask the “right questions” back to get us the answers we need saves us time and resources from searching for answers.

I like that the ROI Solutions team is willing to dive into, think through, and help solve a problem. It’s not really just the product. It’s the team.

The real test of any system is the ability to get data out of the system to provide users across the organization with the right information to answer the specific use case. I love the ability to create my own reports and schedule them as I need them. I am also able to schedule reports for Finance on a monthly basis, as well as create weekly and daily reports that are distributed to my supervisor and teammates.

In any transition to a new system, there can be some trepidation about disruptions to the deadlines of a complex direct-response program. Despite a shortened timeline in the enterprise-wide implementation of Revolution CRM, the whole process was smooth and seamless, and we didn’t miss a single drop date. We are proud to report that we hit our direct marketing goals within the first year of our move to ROI Solutions. ROI is a great partner who understands our program, works tirelessly to support our work, and is genuinely fun to work with!

ROI Solutions has consistently demonstrated its commitment to our cause throughout the course of our relationship. They provide financial support and actively participate in our events, including our National Dinner. Their team’s enthusiasm and dedication are unmatched. I remember one year, when Cyndi Lauper sang ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’ at our Dinner, Gina and I were dancing, screaming at the top of our lungs. It was a testament to the fun and supportive environment that ROI Solutions fosters. And no one knows how to have fun like Gina!

ROI Solutions’ innovative AI technology, MiLo Intelligence, is efficient and seamless. At HRC, we have used various predictive models over the years. We have been very impressed with the results from MiLo in both our recent and very deep-lapsed audiences. We have found those elusive ‘needles in a haystack’ among our deepest lapsed donors that we would likely have never touched using our regular segmentation and modeling efforts.

ROI gets to know its clients very intimately. They understand the organization’s dynamics, changing times, and technology and remain one step ahead. I think that’s what separates them from their competitors in the space.

Asking donors at the right time to become part of a recurring giving program is vital to our success, but response rates are tiny in the mail. We need the insights a machine learning model can give us to optimize the resources we have to invest in these efforts. The plan is to take the typical huge invite audience and look to mail the top 50% which should get us 90% of the responders, per the model back testing.

Before the transition to Revolution CRM, Special Olympics faced numerous challenges. Our sustainers were managed in one system, while planned giving was handled in another. Integration with our online fundraising system was a struggle, and reconciliation with our finance department was cumbersome. We also had lots of duplicate records. However, since the implementation of Revolution CRM, we have a reliable single system of record, significantly improving our supporter engagement and instilling confidence in our operations.

PETA’s sustainer program represents over $9 million annually for the organization. Even a 1% positive change in sustainer retention represents tens of thousands of dollars in revenue. So, we are working with MiLo to identify those at-risk audiences and create intervention strategies to prevent churn.

We came to ROI Solutions in a sorry state because we couldn’t trust our data. Our processes were convoluted, and communication with our members was frequently confused and affected. We had few automated processes. For example, the lifeblood of many public media organizations is its sustaining membership. But recapturing declined transactions was highly manual.  With Revolution CRM and Engaging Networks, we’ve automated processing and communication around declined sustainer transactions. After putting these processes in place, we recaptured more than $80,000 in just the first few months. For us, that’s a staff position — a journalist in the community telling stories that matter.  It’s not just numbers in a spreadsheet.

In a previous position, the organization I worked for went through a database conversion, which didn’t go as well as we had planned.  So, when I interviewed at Special Olympics, I was told one of the first things we’d be working on was a database conversion.  I was still feeling wounded from my previous experience but was ready to help tackle this project.   As we went through our selection process, I learned that many on our ROI Solutions team had prior experience with Special Olympics and historical knowledge that I didn’t have coming in; I knew we were in good hands.  It was a seamless process, and the ROI Solutions team restored my faith in how a database conversion can go.

“I don’t think we could have asked for a better partner than ROI Solutions. They told us their approach to working with an organization of our size, prepared us for what to expect, and then proceeded to meet or exceed all their promises.”
