Corporate donor and sponsorship research.

Corporate donor research tells you whether a company is a good fit before you ask. For nonprofit development teams and fundraisers, PrepWork researches a company's recent news, priorities, financial snapshot and leaders, and suggests an approach and a first email. Use it for corporate sponsorship, corporate giving and partnership asks. It researches companies only, not individual donors.

The problem

Corporate asks that do not read like form letters.

Without PrepWork
  • Generic sponsorship letters sent to a general inbox.
  • No idea whether the company is growing or cutting back.
  • Not knowing who could champion your cause.
With PrepWork
  • Recent news and priorities to tie your ask to.
  • A financial snapshot and signals of capacity.
  • Leaders at the level you choose, plus a first email.

Questions

Before you try it.

Does PrepWork research individual donors?

No. PrepWork researches companies. It is built for corporate giving, sponsorship and partnership asks, not for screening individuals.

The report is written for selling. Does it work for fundraising?

Yes. Read "pitch" as "ask". The research, the contacts and the approach apply directly; adapt the email to your organization's voice.

How long does a report take?

Usually a couple of minutes. PrepWork runs live web research on the company every time, so you are not reading an old database record.
