The economic value of volunteering is at least worth \u00a350 Billion to the British economy and has the scope to grow but that’s impossible if retention rates are low. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer retention rates are on a halt and that calls for strategic changes within organisations. Investment in technology is necessary if you want the same investment back from your volunteers. According to the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) data shows that rates of volunteering have not changed. 38% of people reported they had formally volunteered at least once a year in 2017-18 a 1% increase from 2016-1<\/a>7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The figures may seem minuscule, but how can we measure volunteer activity if things stay fixed and static across the country. However, you’ll be happy to know that technology is allowing nonprofits the ability to maximise efforts in volunteer retention solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer Management Software <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer Management Software can provide the right tools for organisations to manage, recruit and retain valued volunteers. Nonprofits that devote time and money to a volunteer system are often astonished by the impact technology can have on their volunteer program. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 4 ways that volunteer management software can aid organisations in volunteer retention.<\/strong><\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Respond to Volunteers Quickly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Organisations that inform and respond volunteers quickly have a much a higher percentage of retaining them. It is key for volunteer managers to have regular communication in order to have a successful programme. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issue volunteer managers face is the lack of time they have to give speedy responses. Having a volunteer management software means that your communication process becomes a lot more simplified by reducing the time spent on communication. We have the case studies to prove how a volunteer system can really make a better impact on your programme!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TeamKinetic make communication fast and simple through our feedback function that allows volunteers and opportunity providers to send each other feedback as well as opportunity chat rooms for that instant response! Our volunteer software also allows you to send out automated and customised notifications (Text, Email, Social) at a click of a button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Utilise a Volunteer Database<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Having a volunteer database can inform and guide you to make better organisational decisions that benefit everyone involved. The information can allow you to understand past and present volunteers making sure volunteers are placed into roles that suit them best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data can increase retention rates and allows you to understand the facts and figures not just what you think is right. Organisations that still manually input data into spreadsheets are at risk of losing historical data and also risk miss understanding key data due to the lack of visualisation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A volunteer system makes interpreting data easy. It can allow you to group volunteers based on skill sets and demographics, highlights popular opportunities, and assists volunteers that need support. These are all contributing factors to understanding your volunteers better and making retention rates higher. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer Appreciation and Recognition <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

All humans need to be recognised in a meaningful way for their efforts. Volunteers give up their time to help organisations they are passionate and care about. So that same intention should be displayed by the volunteer manager. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lack of incentive and appreciation for your volunteers is sure to make them lose motivation and belief in what you do. Organisations should be developing time and effort towards the happiness of their volunteers. How hard is it to say thank you?<\/a> We have found that the most effective way to show appreciation towards volunteers is by incorporating a<\/g> rewards and recognition system into your program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TeamKinetic’s volunteer management software allows organisations to create a rewards and recognition scheme that will create a better impact on achieving goals and mission accomplishments. Administrators can track and edit recognition directly from TeamKinetic’s user interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Build Personal Relationships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Getting to know your volunteers on a personal level is a great way of making them part of your organisation’s community. Volunteers want to know who they are volunteering for. Building meaningful relationships <\/a>isn’t easy when you have time constraints and project deadlines to meet, but it is one of the most important factors to consider when evaluating volunteer retention rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Volunteer Management Software can provide you with that much needed free time. A volunteer system allows administrators to communicate with registered volunteers through a number of functions such as opportunity chatroom, opportunity feedback, social media linking. Organisations we work with have saved hours by changing from manual procedures to a digital platform<\/a> that allows them to carry out their daily tasks all in one place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

So if you’re having trouble with volunteer retention and feel like theres<\/g> never enough time to get your long list of tasks complete, then maybe a volunteer management software is for you? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TeamKinetic helps to build better volunteer communities<\/a> by providing great tools for volunteer managers that save time, make a better impact and improve insight. Our goal is to make volunteering easy for everyone no matter what. But don\u2019t take our word for it, why not check out our customer reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
