Hi {{first_name}},

Following up on my earlier note about donor retention at {{company_name}}. I wanted to share a data point that might be relevant.

We recently analyzed retention patterns across 120 mid-size nonprofits and found that organizations with automated stewardship workflows retained donors at nearly twice the rate of those relying on manual processes. The gap was especially wide for donors in the $100-$500 annual giving range.

If benchmarking {{company_name}} against those numbers would be useful, I am happy to run a quick comparison. It takes about 10 minutes and could surface some actionable insights for your next board meeting.
