Written by Senior CRO & UX Strategist Stephen Courtney, this white paper takes a unique and interesting look at what makes people give to charities.
Charities rarely get time to ask themselves, "what makes someone donate?" Not only is it a fascinating question, but the answers can make campaigns and website designs much more effective. This white paper shares insights gained through hundreds of A/B tests, years of audience research and countless published studies to help the good guys get their message across.
