I think you're absolutely right to talk about online crowdfunding as having the double benefit, and I think this is particularly true if the personalised…"

"And presumably in order to avoid confusion you have to make sure you don't have too many project asks out at any one moment. If one organisation is raising for 6 projects say then that may confuse the audience, spread the donations too thin and…"
Howard Lake replied to Alex Morrison's discussion Government Cuts and Online Fundraising
"Yes, Nick's right to clarify that. Occasionally social media campaigns can generate large sums quickly, but mostly 'crowdfunding' (or public fundraising/individual giving as many of us know it as from before the days of Facebook et…"

"If I created the impression that online fundraising tactics might be a magic bullet to quickly make up deficits created by cuts in core funding then I apologise. It's not, and can't be a quick fix. It has to be a medium- to long-term…"
Nick Sherrard replied to Alex Morrison's discussion Government Cuts and Online Fundraising
"Sure - I think my hesitation here is that this thread was framed around online fundraising as a way of dealing with core funding cuts. If organisations fit it into their development plans that way I think they'll be disappointed.

"I don't think anyone sensible would claim that online engagement is a substitute for real-world activity. It's just the best and cheapest way of capturing and enriching the relationship that exists between an arts organisation and its…"
Paddy Chatterton replied to Alex Morrison's discussion Government Cuts and Online Fundraising
"And how much real life engagement does an online donor need? That's another question to ponder. Can someone be motivated to donate to a project through online engagement solely or do they need to have seen your work, know your organisation in…"

"Exactly what I've found too. Project based campaigns make a compelling ask and plays on the real time feature of many social networks.
I don't think anyone has really tried with core funding yet through online platforms. I suppose the…"

"The arts sector has been a bit slow at really harnessing the potential of this and part of that is evidence of its success (and issues around individual giving capability more generally). I think it needs to be thought of in the wider context of…"

This is my concern, there is a lot of information, statistics e.t.c. about the potential of the internet/social media e.t.c to support arts/cultural organisations, but as of yet I haven't seen a successful example- am particularly…"

"Hi Alex
Can you name me a successful online fundraising campaign by a UK arts/cultural organisation, that has raised a significant amount of money (min £10,000)? Would be great to get some examples of success stories"
Alex Morrison commented on Jack J Hutchinson's blog post ACE faces heavy criticism from Select Committee
