Why the Donor Life Cycle is Different for Giving Tuesday
Approximately 63% of Giving Tuesday donors will never make another gift to your organization. Why? The giving cycle is disrupted. The motivations for giving on that event are completely different from the motivations of a donor forming a long-lasting relationship with your nonprofit. While they are identified and solicited, they skipped the integral step of cultivation.
Timesaver Tip: How to Use Keywords, Attributes & Actions
Organizing data and tagging information for individual and groups of donors is easy to do in Julep with the help of the Flags, Keywords, Attributes and Actions features.

Saved and Recent Searches is one of Julep’s most flexible features that allows you to build custom searches and reports. Once saved, you can then use the Email Scheduler tool to schedule these custom searches and reports to run automatically at specified times.
Timesaver Tip: Mass Append
Have you ever needed to add a keyword or event details to a large number of records in your database? Julep’s Mass Append tool was designed for users to update multiple records at once. Through this feature, Julep users can add or update flags, keywords, notes, tasks, and events in bulk to their People Search result records.
Timesaver Tip: Moves Management, Part 1
Tracking your major gift program can be a challenge. With multiple donors at different points in the giving cycle, it’s easy to forget to follow-up or not meet deadlines. Julep’s Moves Management solves those issues for fundraising and development teams with our Moves Management tracker. This dashboard visually organizes the process of moving prospective donors through the major giving process. Starting with discovery and cultivation through the completed donation, Moves Management helps organizations keep track of how they are reaching these prospects.
