    MSF stopped fundraising 5 days after the tsunami disaster - because they could not responsibly spend the money. #ioftech

    Its the volunteer Drs and nurses working in difficult and dangerous places that is the story that motivates donors. Real stories . #ioftech

    #ioftech @kliffen & MSF focus on regular giving. "Thank you" often. "Please" rarely. Fundraising: Done?

    Like the pinball effect theory - people bounce off different channels - but its hard to measure. #ioftech

    People bounce off different messages and make purchase. BUT when you ask people they only remember the last thing they saw #ioftech

    @Kliffen talks about integration and the challenges. Wouldn't it be handy if everything can be delivered from 1 platform? CiviCRM !#ioftech

    Fascinating point from @klififfen - How can we measure the impact of PR and DM campaigns when people decide to just google & give? #ioftech

    The challenge of unpicking "over whelming" data. Seeing the wood for the trees. #ioftech

    An emerging question for charities looking at software databases will be "is it cloud based?" Flexibility for the future.. #ioftech

    Another benefit of cloud based CRM solutions is that you can take your data into the field with you. #ioftech

    In reality it's much more expensive to put a database/software in place than we think. But crucial to good, effective fundraising. #Ioftech

    Ask your supplier for API integration. We at JustGiving couldn't agree more! #ioftech

    If you buy CRM software 80% of budget is on bespoke configuration - and you have to train staff to use it. Properly. #ioftech

    People leave; new people get left with a historic bespoke database that they cant work, or makes no sense.. happened to you? #ioftech

    Integration of data and databases is not easy. Damn #ioftech
