About This Automation

Donor segmentation requires manual data export, cleaning, filtering, and validation across multiple tools. This repetitive work introduces errors, delays campaign launches, and consumes hours that could focus on donor relationships.

Automation extracts donor data, applies segmentation rules, validates results, and prepares import-ready files in a single workflow. Campaigns launch the same day with zero data errors.

Key features
Extract and clean donor records from your CRM automatically
Apply segmentation rules based on gift history, engagement, and geography
Validate segment accuracy and flag missing high-value donors
Format and import segments directly into your email platform
Generate segment summaries and audit trails for compliance

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Campaign Requestedtrigger

A fundraiser or campaign manager submits a campaign request via a form or message, including the campaign name, goal, and target donor criteria.

2. Fetch Donor Data from CRM

The automation queries the CRM ( or ) for all donors matching the requested criteria, pulling name, email, gift history, engagement score, and other key fields.

3. Apply Segmentation Rules

A segmentation evaluates each donor against the campaign criteria (gift amount thresholds, recency, engagement level, geography) and classifies them into the target segment.

4. Deduplicate & Validate Segment

The automation removes duplicate email addresses, flags records with missing critical fields, and generates a summary report of the segment size and composition.

5. Format for Email Platform

The segment is automatically reformatted to match 's import schema, with column headers and field mappings applied.

6. Import

The formatted segment is uploaded as a new audience list or added to an existing one, ready for campaign assignment.

7. Notify Team & Log Segment

A notification is sent to the campaign manager with the segment summary (size, key demographics, any data quality flags), and the segment details are logged for audit and compliance.
