What if the most powerful tool for strengthening donor relationships isn't your messaging strategy, but your ability to listen? In this illuminating conversation with Chris Barlow, Customer Happiness Director at Your Beeline, we explore how nonprofits can transform their digital communications from one-way broadcasts into meaningful two-way conversations. We often view our websites, social media accounts, and email campaigns as channels for pushing out information rather than opportunities for genuine engagement. Chris challenges this mindset by showing how active listening principles can be applied across all your digital touchpoints to deepen connection with supporters and dramatically improve results. Discover practical strategies that any organization can implement immediately: from adding simple surveys to your website's thank you pages. Perhaps most powerfully, you'll learn how asking donors about their vision for your mission can uncover hidden major gift prospects while honoring their role as stakeholders in your work.

As Founder and Customer Happiness Director, Chris Barlow is grateful to help nonprofits use digital marketing to multiply the reach of their mission and the growth of their donors. Most of all, he’s grateful to be the dad to seven kids, and to try to teach them how to live in a way that multiplies good in others.
