We’ve got new integrations, including GoFundMe Pro and Hubspot, to save you time. No more exporting and importing CSV files. You can sync your data and make better connections with your supporters.
What Are Integrations?
Integrations allow you to connect your Rally data with your customer relationship management (CRM) system. That means you can sync your text message marketing data with the rest of your donor data.
- Automatic: Save time by syncing your data automatically—no more exporting and importing CSV files.
- Ongoing: Keep your data synced so you always have the latest info on your donors and volunteers.
- Optimized: Synced data means you can optimize your outreach strategies with the latest info and response data.
Rally founder James Martin explains how it works:
Connect With the Tools You Already Use
Rally connects with literally thousands of tools so you can expand your mobile fundraising. No need to reinvent the wheel. Whether you need to sync your CRM data or connect with your fundraising platform, Rally has integrations that work for you.
We just added Hubspot and Classy (now GoFundMe Pro), , but there are plenty of others including Active Campaign, MailChimp, Bloomerang, Virtuous, Blackbaud, Fundraise Up, and more.
If you don’t see your tools, we also integrate with Zapier, which gives you access to thousands of online tools.
Why Do Integrations Matter?
OK, what’s the big deal with integrations? Why should your nonprofit care what tech tools you can connect with your short message service (SMS) marketing tool? Simple: It’s all connected. Integrating your tools will save you time, allow you to do your work better, and accomplish more.
1. Save Time
No more exporting and importing CSV files manually. That’s a lot of work to keep your data synced and now you can do it automatically. That will save you the time of doing the work, plus the headache of forgetting, being too busy, or having the process lost to staff turnover.
2. Connect Better
OK, so integrations save you time. But why do you need that data synced in the first place? Simple: Better connections.
Synced data will make your outreach more efficient and successful. You’ll know how your supporters are responding across all your marketing efforts and you can respond accordingly.
For example:
- Follow up: Track who responds to your text messages and target those folks for one-on-one follow up.
- Volunteer recruitment: See who consistently responds to your texts and emails—they love what you’re doing!—and offer them volunteer opportunities.
- Big supporters: Find the intersection of big donors and big supporters. These are people who consistently donate and respond to your texts and emails. Offer them a next step, whether it’s major gift opportunities or just connecting to learn more.
3. Do More
Now that you can sync your data, you can do more. With Rally, you can enrich your data and export that new info to your CRM. You’ll have better data, which enables you to do more.
You can fill in missing details like email addresses, mobile phone numbers, or mailing addresses. That means you can personalize your communication, do more segmenting, and improve your deliverability and response rates. Better data will help all your marketing efforts.
