😈 DEVILCORP.ORG IS ONLINE 😈 Today we have officially launched Devilcorp.org, an OSINT investigative website focused entirely on the direct marketing and charity fundraising industry. Think Bellingcat for Credico, Appco, Cydcor, Britevox, and Smart Circle. What is #OSINT? OSINT, short for Open Source Intelligence, involves gathering and analysing publicly available information to address specific questions or problems. In the context of companies like Smart Circle, Credico, Cydcor, or Appco, OSINT includes examining a sales office's social media pages, legal information accessible online (such as Companies House records), and individuals' shared experiences on platforms like blogs or YouTube. In simpler terms, OSINT for these businesses means using online data that's available to everyone. We gather, analyse, and interpret this information to find answers to questions that can’t be found otherwise. Then, we’ll present this information in an interesting and easy-to-understand way. As well as OSINT guides where we’ll break down how to use the information readily available online to conduct your own investigations on these predatory marketing companies, we’ll also be conducting feature length investigations and exposés where we’ll answer this industry’s biggest questions. Our first article, a guide on how to use a sales office’s online presence to determine if they’re a Devilcorp, is up now. Let us know what guides you think we should write! The r/devilcorp subreddit is just one of our community projects, another being our UK Credico and Appco Sales Office Batchgeo tracking map. Together, with input from our community of former salespeople, team leaders, recruiters, and owners, we aim to transform this collective knowledge into accessible, effective tools that anyone can use to find the answers they need in this industry. On devilcorp.org you can also read about our contributions towards mainstream news on this industry, with publications such as the BBC, WalesOnline, and The Times. If you are a journalist looking to learn more.

“How do I get my board members to do stuff they don’t want to do?” I get this question SO often, and here’s my straight-up, no-bullsh*t answer. 🚨 You’re never going to get board members to do things they don’t want to do. You can ask them a million times and all they’ll do is ignore you 🚨 But there are things you can do to help them get other things done. 💡 First, help them understand the whole cycle of the donor journey. Oftentimes, board members think that fundraising is only about asking for money, but you know that’s just a small percentage of the overall cycle. You know it's about identifying and cultivating relationships, solicitation, and stewardship. A lot of board members just don't realize this. It’s up to you to inform them. 💡 Brainstorm activities that they could do relative to each step of the cycle. Create a board menu, and have individual conversations with each person about what they are willing to do this year. I once had a board member who was quite wealthy who told me she was willing to do anything except ask her friends for money (eeh, a bit problematic for a board member, but whatever). She had a beautiful Upper East Side townhouse, so instead she hosted multiple fundraising events for us. It’s a fine balance of helping them figure out what they can do to support the work. The more you can celebrate their commitment and provide support, the more likely they are to get sh*t done ✅ Are you in the process of creating a more engaged board?

Your surveys suck. When you don't. 1️⃣ Think headline first Each question should tie directly to a headline you'd wanna use for pitching. If you can't think of one, maybe the question is redundant. Scrap it, we gotta be brutal. Think about this in relation to which way the answers come back too, what would the headline be if the majority picked A Vs B. 2️⃣ Write it like you want it Language is powerful. If you want a certain answer, then craft the question to try and lead the respondents to lean that way. 3️⃣ Get crafty Depending on who you use for your surveys you may be able to get more bang for your buck by structuring your survey in a certain way. E.g. Some places count five yes/no statement questions as one standard question. So if you structure and word your survey correctly you can get five questions answered for every one. This one thing alone can save you grands. You can thank me later. What survey tips you got? -- 👋 Need a survey crafted for you next campaign? ☎ Drop in a discovery call
