16 Bill Tedesco  info@donorsearch.net  www.donorsearch.net  410.670.7880www.donorsearch.net Sample PGID Results We reviewed 16,649 for an unnamed organization.

18 Bill Tedesco  info@donorsearch.net  www.donorsearch.net  410.670.7880www.donorsearch.net Identifying Planned Giving Prospects The assumption that age alone will help you identify good prospects is false. The chart to the right shows the distribution of donors by generation and PGID ranking. While age alone is not a good indicator, it is an important marker for understanding donor motivation.

19 Bill Tedesco  info@donorsearch.net  www.donorsearch.net  410.670.7880www.donorsearch.net DS Scores for All PGID Ranked Donors After donors are assigned a PGID rank, DonorSearch applies a DS Score to each of the ranked donors based on criteria found in external databases. DS1-1 indicates people who have made gifts of $5,000 or more to other nonprofits. DS1-2 and DS1-3 are indicators of significant and extraordinary wealth. DS1-4 and 1-5 are prospects who display an increased likelihood to make above average gifts to your annual fund. DS2 and DS3 are individuals with little external information and are usually considered unremarkable prospects. When coupled with a high PGID score, these are considered excellent prospects for “Gifts Anyone Can Afford.” DSRati ng1234567All DS1-10160303223326713002319 DS1-20133630790434592 DS1-302755581271726994 DS1-4045127 273515562133 DS1-5069187151329416892429 DS20351011072101 DS301513743979081062418081 All04681087996205301201816649
