Direct Connection is able to take your database and prepare it for maximum postal savings prior to mail offering NCOA and CASS services. We are also able to assist you in the data pull to ensure your appeal for support is using the proper suggested gift requests. Is this appeal going to use last gift on record or single largest gift? Who is the target audience and based on that what is the proper gift request and should it include an upgrade logic table?
