Personalized websites and email for Christian organizations

Marketing that multiplies your mission.

Giver helps ministries, publishers, creators, nonprofits and mission-driven businesses get more from the audience they already have, turning attention into subscribers, supporters, donors, members, customers and people who come back.

What does Giver do?

Giver helps Christian organizations get more from the audience they already have. We design and build the website, the survey that tells you who is reading it, and the email journeys that follow.

Then we personalize all three, so each person meets a next step that fits them: subscribing, taking part, a first gift, a repeat gift, membership, a purchase, a renewal or deeper involvement.

Who we help you reach
  • Website visitors
  • Email subscribers
  • Supporters
  • Donors
  • Members
  • Customers
  • Readers
  • Students
  • Participants
The work

Some of what we’ve built

Real screens from work we designed and built: the site, the survey that tells you who is reading it, and the page that changes depending on the answer.

  • The Axis resource hub for educators, open on a laptop
    Axis

    The resource hub

    A section of the site built around what educators actually came for, instead of a library they have to search.

  • A Spark Discipleship survey question open on a phone
    Spark Discipleship

    The survey

    Four answers on a phone. Everything the site and the emails say afterwards is written for the one they pick.

  • An Axis landing page beside the rule that changes it for each visitor
    Axis

    A page that changes

    One landing page, and the rule that rewrites its headline for the person reading it.

You’re not short on audience. You’re short on relevance.

Your website shows everyone the same page, and your newsletter sends everyone the same email. So most visitors never join, most subscribers never act, and most first-time givers don’t come back.

How it works

From attention to action

Not every visitor, subscriber, donor, customer or member is at the same stage. We design the website, the survey and the emails as one piece of work, so each person meets a next step that fits where they are.

  1. Step 1

    Someone discovers you

    Through an article, a podcast, a search, a book or a friend.

  2. Step 2

    They land on a site built for your audience

    The structure, the pages and the words come from research into what people actually came for.

  3. Step 3

    You ask them a few questions

    A short survey, written for your audience, worth their time to answer. Their answers are saved to their record.

  4. Step 4

    They become known, and grouped

    A subscriber, member, customer or participant, in a group you can speak to on its own terms.

  5. Step 5

    The site and the emails fit them

    The page they see and the mail they get match what they told you, including what you invite them to do next: learn, give, join, buy, renew or keep going.

  6. Step 6

    You measure it and improve it

    Against a baseline, so you know what actually moved.

Who we help

Christian organizations with an audience to serve.

If you have a real audience, a website or an email list, and you want more from the people you already have, we should talk.

Case studies

Engagement results that support growth

These projects weren’t all designed as revenue experiments. They show the behaviors we improve before and between financial outcomes: joining, clicking, replying, staying subscribed, finding the right content and taking the next step.

Spark Discipleship · Higher sign-up conversion
Before40%
After68%

Sign-ups after we matched the headline to the visitor, across 3,484 visitors.

A stronger sign-up creates a larger known audience for future nurture, giving, membership, sales or participation.

Axis · A healthier, more engaged list
Replies+40%
Unsubscribes−42%
Spam−77%

After we rebuilt the welcome emails around who each subscriber is.

Replies show what people care about, and fewer unsubscribes and complaints keep more of your audience reachable for everything that follows.

Axis · Better resource matching
Clicked96%

Supporters who clicked the resource matched to what they told us, 2,663 of 2,763.

Relevant recommendations create fitting next steps for content, products, courses, membership or giving.

We’re building our library of direct revenue case studies. Until we have verified revenue results from those projects, we show the engagement and journey improvements we can back up, and we measure financial impact transparently with each client.

Working together

How we work together

  1. Step 1

    A discovery call

    A free 45-minute call about your goals, your audience and what's getting in the way. You'll leave knowing where you're losing people.

  2. Step 2

    The Giver Map

    An audience journey and growth audit. We find where your audience is being lost, and which fixes are most likely to lift subscriptions, participation, giving, sales, membership and retention. You leave with a prioritized plan, whether or not you hire us to build it.

  3. Step 3

    The Multiplier

    We build it and run it with you. We propose a few options sized to your organization, you choose one, and our team does the work.

Good, true and beautiful.

That is the standard we hold our work to, because it is the one your mission deserves. Your website, your emails and your campaigns should be honest about who you are, useful to the people you serve, and beautiful to look at. We don’t ship work that is merely fine.

What it’s worth

What could your audience be worth?

Answer a few questions about your organization and see an estimate of what better website and email journeys could be worth, and what to fix first. About a minute, and no email.
