Charitable Lotteries & Raffles
Telefundraising for charitable lotteries and raffles is still one of the most effective fundraising methods for not-for-profits. It achieves higher response rates than other marketing channels.
Often, NFP’s don’t utilise the phone enough to complement the other marketing channels (i.e. face-to-face, email, direct mail, online, etc.) Thomas Direct has been involved in over a thousand lotteries and raffles for many of Australia’s leading not-for-profit organisations.
Donor work and retention
Whether you’re looking for new donors, converting one-off donors to become repeat supporters or simply saying ‘thank you’, Thomas Direct’s team has the experience and tact to get you the campaign results your not-for-profit organisation needs.
- Database cleansing
- Surveying your supporters
- Building your customer list
- Performing informational calls
- Reinforcing the message from other marketing communications
Bequests
To whom we leave our money behind is a very personal decision. So after your supporters have looked after their family, often they consider supporting a cause or service. Asking on the phone can be a great way to find out people’s interest.
It may be that they believe in the vision of your organisation or perhaps it’s a desire to simply help those in the future. Either which way, they see helping your NFP as an opportunity to help others.
Thomas Direct has significant experience having these types of sensitive conversations with our clients’ supporters. Our relationship approach has served our clients greatly in this field.

A quick note to say how delighted I was with the service afforded me by Colin… his courtesy, professionalism and attention to detail were far more persuasive than the few cents here and there that we will be saving.
