Dear Valued Wefunder Investors and Friends of Givsum, We are growing! The ongoing improvements in our overall UX/UI, our new online auction feature, and a sales funnel focused on annual subscriptions has resulted in a 171% increase for Q1 over last year. Givsum’s brand recognition amongst Rotary Clubs in the United States continues to shine as referrals are now coming in from clubs and districts around the country. Our Q2 focus remains on continued iteration of “product market fit,” and further expansion into the larger nonprofit sector. New hires in customer success and sales will help accelerate this process, as well as assist in tackling the 350% growth in leads obtained from three recent PETS Rotary conferences. Givsum is also in exploratory talks with potential white label partners and setting the roadmap for implementation of internet 3.0 technology, including auction NFTs, and crypto payments. Our $2M seed round is nearing $600K, led by SteelBridge labs and a strong contingent of Wefunder retail investors. Please continue to share the Givsum Wefunder page with others, as your engagement will help us achieve key fundraising goals, and accelerate Wefunder’s marketing efforts to their large network of retail investors. https://wefunder.com/givsumThank you for being a part of Givsum’s mission of advancing online tools for charitable giving. Because of you, our nonprofit customers are raising more money than ever and doing more to improve the communities in which they serve; their success is fueling our success.Sincerely, Shawn WehanGivsum, Inc., CEO---------Givsum Case Study: How Rotary Club of Tempe South Created Rotary's Largest Online Auction: https://blog.givsum.com/case-study-rotary-tempe-south-auction/
