-- Michael D., Trident Consulting Group, Massachusetts
 
"I am impressed with the import feature in FundRaiser Basic, and was able to import our donor base of 400 names effortlessly."
-- Ralph, Soledad Community Health Care District Foundation
 
"We love the program, and donations are increasing! Our MAC-based nonprofit bought a PC to run your software, and we have no regrets."
-- Keith, Imagine That Ministries
 
"I can't believe all of what you get for the price! And, it's extremely user-friendly."
-- Carol S., St. Louis, MO
 
"I am campaign manager for _____ who is running for Jackson County commissioner. I just found your program and was impressed. I find it easy to use and intuitive. Keep up the good work!"
-- Aaron H., Oregon
 
"I sent out about 600 letters in December, thanking people for their gifts that year and asking for a year end gift.... We generated $4,500 in less than a month, with more coming in. FundRaiser Basic makes it so much easier to track and work on these kinds of 'personal' fundraising approaches."
-- Jenifer S., Bogus Basin Lifetime Sports Education Foundation, Boise, ID
 
"I appreciate your software's simplicity, and that it's also complete, thorough and affordable! Thanks! Your technical support people are terrific as well."
-- Lisa, Forgotten Angels
 
"We were fortunate to find your software through the internet and found it to contain all the necessary tools that the more expensive software packages have but at a fraction of the cost. We could never afford any of the fundraising databases we viewed but were able to purchase and implement the FundRaiser Basic."
-- Lois, Centre County Youth Service Bureau, Pennsylvania
 
"You will be proud of me. I managed to figure out the import. ... I have always been "manual shy" because the wording and lingo always raised more questions than it answered. Yours is definitely different. I could really understand it. The import wizard also made it very easy."
-- Bonnie W., St. Michael's Academy, Texas
 


Eliminating unnecessary category codes

While category codes are one of the most useful tools in FundRaiser, there are some things that should not be coded. As a rule of thumb, you should never add a code for something that you can sort out in another way. Two things you should never code are donors and prospects.
