Convio has built a Facebook application builder as part of their Open initiative. For organizations on the Convio platform, the Facebook application is a no-brainer and a HUGE improvement from Causes. It will be interesting to see how many organizations roll this out in the coming months and to track the success with it.

At this point, there are two very different paths we can take: the new Nonprofit Starter pack from Salesforce, or Convio Common Ground.

Constituent data is scattered across the organization, residing passively in so many databases that it is nearly impossible for staff or volunteers to ever have a complete, near-real time view of any constituent who donates, visits an office, attends an event, or participates in any other way.

How do you determine which technology, or set of technologies, will be best suited to your organization? Friendraising, by the way, is the concept of cultivating and developing relationships for purposes other than soliciting philanthropic gifts, such as for a volunteer role or in an advisory capacity. And how do you check results?

As a consultant working with nonprofits, I agree with this strategy. I find that a lot of the organizations I work with have traditionally relied on a single stream of revenue, which could put them in jeopardy if economic or other conditions change. Look to grants : Grants can be a major source of revenue for nonprofit organizations.
