STELLAR Looking for Research Partners
As most of you know, STELLAR conducts ongoing research on Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Fundraising models and processes in an effort to continually increase the effectiveness of such efforts.
STELLAR is undertaking a new set of analytic research projects focused on several key areas of the fundraising process. This research will be focused on the following questions:
- What is the short and long term effect of different general fundraising models?
- How much internal time (employee time) does it take for different general fundraising models to be administered?
- What is the true short and long term expense of different general fundraising models?
- Is there a consistent correlation between community size and the success of specific fundraising efforts?
As with past research projects, in order to achieve truly meaningful results we need the cooperation of organizations throughout the country representing many diverse communities.
We are currently looking for Chambers of Commerce and Economic Development Organizations interested in being a part our new set of research initiatives. Research partners will be asked a number of questions about their current and past fundraising efforts and the results achieved. Your answers will be compared and contrasted with hundreds of other similar organizations in an effort to find what really works in markets around the country.
As always, all information is kept completely confidential. Research results are produced in an anonymous format.
As a thank you for being a STELLAR research partner, you will be given FREE access to all of our research findings. Additionally, you may have future opportunities to be involved with more hands on research in the future.
