Add to LibraryOverview
This pre-built module translates nonprofit fundraising processes into HubSpot’s CRM architecture, letting development and partnership teams work from a single, unified workspace.
- Custom Properties for clean, report-ready data – Contact, Company and Deal records capture donor roles, preferred causes, grant deadlines, funding timelines, and other nonprofit-specific attributes out of the box. These fields drive better segmentation, personalized outreach, and granular reporting.
- Three fundraising pipelines with stage probabilities – Separate workflows for Corporate Partnerships, Grant Acquisition, and Major Donor Cultivation mirror how nonprofits actually raise money. Probability weighting feeds accurate revenue forecasts and helps leadership spot bottlenecks early.
- Automation that saves staff hours – Pre-configured workflows assign new leads, flag stale deals, remind grant writers of upcoming deadlines, and alert directors when major gifts close. Teams spend less time on administrative follow-up and more time building relationships.
- Dynamic lists and email templates for targeted stewardship – Lists auto-refresh to surface high-value prospects, lapsed donors, and active grants, while matching email templates ensure consistent, mission-centric messaging at every touchpoint.
- Intake forms that feed directly into the right pipeline – Purpose-built forms for corporate partnership inquiries and grant submissions create the correct records, notify owners, and kick-off automation without manual data entry.
Because everything is native to HubSpot, staff can report on donor engagement, deal velocity, and revenue projections without exporting data or juggling spreadsheets.
Best Practices
Localize and limit your pick-lists
Before going live, trim dropdown values (e.g., cause areas or organization types) to those that match your mission focus. This keeps data clean and makes filters easier to use later.
Assign clear owners on day one
Use the Lead-Assignment workflow, but double-check that every rep, writer, or director has an active Sales Hub seat and is mapped to the right organization type.
Activate re-enrollment where follow-up matters
For grant-deadline and stale-deal alerts, enable re-enrollment so records can trigger reminders each time the condition recurs.
Review pipeline probabilities quarterly
Non-profit sales cycles can lengthen during economic shifts; adjust stage probabilities and close-date assumptions to keep forecasts realistic.
Use dynamic lists, not reports, for day-to-day call sheets
Lists update in real time and can power sequences, ads audiences, or exports—making them the fastest way to pull “who do I talk to today?” segments.
Document every major gift in Deal notes
Notes sync automatically with associated contacts and companies, preserving context for future stewardship and preventing staff turnover from erasing institutional memory.
Audit data monthly
Run saved views for empty critical properties (e.g., “donor_role is unknown”) and schedule quick fixes; high-quality data underpins reliable automation and reporting.
