CASE STUDIES
CRM Build Out with KIPP SoCal Public Schools
Background: KIPP SoCal Public Schools provides quality education to underserved communities in Southern California. The organization has a strong fundraising arm, bringing in over $5M in annual donations to support its mission. To achieve their goal of opening 20 schools by 2020, KIPP SoCal recognized the need for an effective CRM system that would streamline their fundraising efforts and improve their ability to track progress towards their goals.
Challenge: Prior to implementing the Neon CRM system, manual data entry was time-consuming and hindered their ability to focus on fundraising efforts. Their prospect research processes were not efficient, resulting in a lack of insight into donor behavior and potential missed opportunities for increased fundraising. There was also a lack of clear reporting on KPI metrics, making it difficult to track team progress toward goals.
Solution: We worked with KIPP SoCal to develop a CRM database infrastructure that allowed teams to spend more time on mission-critical work, such as planning events and engaging with donors, instead of dealing with manual data entry and inefficient workflows. The dashboard provided a more comprehensive view of donor behavior, allowing for sharper prospect research and more effective fundraising strategies. The team also implemented an email system for events, registration, and strategic planning, as well as a thank-you letter system to express appreciation to donors and foster long-term relationships
Results: With the implementation of the CRM system, KIPP SoCal was able to save over 5 hours of manual data entry per week, allowing the team to focus on more strategic fundraising initiatives. The improved prospect data provided by the CRM system resulted in over $100k+ in additional donations and contributed to KIPP SoCal's ability to achieve its goal of opening 20 schools by 2020. The clear reporting on KPI metrics allowed the team to track progress toward their goals and make data-driven decisions, leading to positive recognition from the Board of Directors at KIPP SoCal. Overall, the CRM system was essential in achieving KIPP SoCal's ambitious fundraising and organizational goals.
