“Harris Connect's advanced caller training has made a huge impact in our results. In September, two weeks after we started calling, they came to campus to lead a two-day workshop. The before-and-after results were exceptional: completing the same number of calls to the same mix of alumni prospects the week before and the week after training, our callers increased the pledge rate from 29% to 63% and the average pledge from $65 to $102! Today, raising more money while reaching fewer people is a great challenge for all fundraisers, and Harris Connect provides us with the right guidance to accomplish this – thanks, Harris Connect!”
Trevor Harvey, Assistant Director of Annual Giving, University of Portland
“The fact that we exceeded our projected goal by $250,000 is outstanding and reflects your care and hard work”

“Harris Connect helped the University more than double pledges in the first year of implementation. The quality training and management has remained consistently high, as evidenced by the most recent results. This is due in large part to the two Harris Connect Resident Directors they have on campus. They really run a great operation, and it is their hard work that gets the student callers enthused and energized enough to achieve the great levels they do.”
Alan Ryea, Director of Alumni and Parent Programs, University of Vermont
“Thank you for your participation in the Campaign to Endow the Carter Center. The successful PHONE/MAIL® program has raised significant dollars that will ensure the continuance of The Carter Center’s important global work for generations to come.”
President Jimmy Carter,

“When HSU began its partnership with Harris Connect five years ago, our phonathon was raising approximately $60,000 in one-year pledges and we’re now generating 10 times that amount. That’s due in part to the company’s strategic guidance in retooling HSU’s annual fund program to implement a three-year pledge period. Moreover, the program as a whole has successfully brought in more than $1 million in credit card gifts and pledges for the University.”

“This pledge is a wonderful example of how a good call can make a huge difference to a Campaign. This $60,000 gift would never have happened without IDC.”
