We also use the median for our comparisons, so that one outlier doesn’t skew the whole set. Of the 25 M+R clients who provided data for our Giving Tuesday analysis, 74% saw an increase in overall revenue, 60% reported an increase in gifts, and 44% reported an increase in average gift. And boy, were there some outliers this year.

The thing that is prompting this post is the little storm about the security metric that we used to try and get a handle on the security of the 4 different systems we reviewed. The report isn’t about security, it’s a very, very broad comparison of the systems, with security as a very small component. More on that in a bit.

The holy grail metrics is missing? The Working Wikily blog describes this effort as a "flash cause," I'm not sure, I think it is hybrid. This would have to be done with some social networking analysis software that maps twitter accounts to donors and displays results. Velocity and fluence and it's darn hard to track those.

I did a comparison of time on-site with top referrals and Twitter referrals stay longer than Google. Does Twitter Work Better As A Listening Tool. This post from Cometrics -- Developing Metrics for Conversation for Twitter -- has lots to ponder. This is, of course, a simplistic analysis of a select number of Twitter users.

You work for a nonprofit that is totally stuck in the donor acquisition cycle from hell. You work long hours and spend a ton of resources getting new donors in the door, only to then see them never make a second gift, leaving you right back where you started. It also involves careful analysis and upkeep of your donors’ data.
