No pitch, no commitment.

What you get

Your data, finally readable.

Most organizations have never really seen their own database. The Data Read changes that, in three plain answers.

What's in it

The real shape of your database: its health, the information it holds, and the valuable segments hiding in plain sight.

How it compares

How your file stacks up against organizations like yours, measured against benchmarks built from 25+ years of data no one else has.

What opportunities exist

Every opportunity your database is holding onto, from dormant contacts to untapped segments. We look for the gaps.

How it works

Three steps. About two weeks.

01

Tell us about your database

A two-minute form. We confirm it's a fit: the analysis needs 10,000+ records to earn its keep.

02

Send your file securely

Through our encrypted portal. We'll tell you exactly which fields we need. Your data stays in safe hands.

03

See it, live

A strategist walks you through what we found, what we see, and the one or two moves we'd make first.

In plain English

Why it's free, and who it's for.

Why is it free?

Because once you see what your data can do, you'll want help acting on it, and that's the part we're hired for. The read itself costs you nothing and commits you to nothing. It's the same insight our clients say they can't live without.

Who is it for?

Organizations with a database of 10,000+ people who already know you: donors, members, alumni, customers, or players. Below that, there isn't enough to model. Above it, there's almost always more value than you'd expect.

Questions

Questions we get, answered.

Is it really free?

Yes, no cost and no obligation. We do the analysis and present it to you. If you'd like us to help act on what we find, that's a separate conversation you can choose to have with us or not.

What do you need from me?

An export of your database, which can be de-identified (names and street addresses removed). Once you book, we send a short, specific list of the fields that make the read most useful, nothing more than you already have on hand.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Your file is transferred through our encrypted client portal and handled under strict confidentiality. Plus we will work with you on de-identifying your data while still giving us what we need to run the read.

How long does it take?

About two weeks from the time we receive your file to your live walkthrough.

What if I'm not ready to change providers?

Completely fine. The read is yours to keep either way. Most of our clients started exactly here: curious, not committed.
