Amplify Traditional Fundraising Channels With Digital Boost for Advancement

Be everywhere your donors are online with smart, omnichannel digital marketing for advancement.

Give Your Donor Engagement a Digital Boost

Donors don’t live in a single inbox or answer every phone call—they live across the entire internet. 


Encoura’s Advancement Digital Boost is a fully managed, turnkey solution that wraps a supportive layer of digital marketing for advancement around your active calling, emailing, and texting efforts. We meet your alumni and donors where they already spend their time, whether they are checking sports scores, scrolling social media, or shopping online.

Three Ways to Turn Your Database Into a High-Converting Pipeline

Connect using your existing donor lists across every screen.

Zero Guesswork

We securely match your database email lists to display targeted ads directly to your community on their favorite platforms and apps.

Zero Wasted Budget

Because you provide the exact target list, you never pay to show ads to random strangers—only to the people who already care about your institution.

Re-engage your "almost givers" and recapture lost momentum.

The "cart abandonment" remedy

We automatically serve gentle, visual reminders across the web to potential donors who visit your giving page but do not complete their gift.

Proven results

Visitors who see friendly retargeting ads are significantly more likely to return and finish their donation.

Reach donors exactly where they gather, using privacy-safe location context.

Virtual perimeters

We draw a precise digital boundary around a specific location (campus, stadium, event space) and serve mobile ads to active devices inside that footprint.

Privacy-first momentum

Using anonymous, location-aware mobile signals instead of personal tracking, this is the perfect way to capture high school spirit during homecoming, tailgates, or regional campaign events.
