The key challenge in this case was to generate an increased number of new email sign ups: There was a large focus on acquisition to grow and sustain a healthy list, in order to promote interest in the organisation’s offerings

Working with Nonprofit.Courses on a retainer basis over the course of a year, eFocus Marketing devising strategies that optimised results while staying within the defined budgets.

Through a thorough Email Registration Optimisation Review project, we identified missed opportunities and improvements to encourage increased sign ups.

  • Data Collection Refinement: To better understand Nonprofit.Courses’ subscribers and deliver more personalised content, we optimised the data collection process. This allowed us to gather valuable insights for future uses to effectively segment our audience, enabling the delivery of tailored and highly relevant emails.
  • Post-Signup Landing Page: We used the opportunity to create personalised landing pages that express gratitude, confirm subscriptions, and warmly welcome users to our program. This additional step enhanced the overall user experience and reinforced our commitment to our subscriber community’s satisfaction.
