How To Learn About Your Audience Through Testing — John Walsh

John Walsh, director of annual giving at St Vladimir's Seminary, had a response ready when asked about his marketing motto; “Test it.” It’s always better to take a solid swing, to click send on that email, and then be ready to learn from how your audience responds.Because every nonprofit’s audience is unique, there isn’t a best practice that works 100% of the time. But not every test is equal. Knowing why you’re testing what you’re testing and knowing what you can replicate are essential before hitting send.
