The Mission:
Blind Veterans UK recognised that disconnected systems, inconsistent processes and unreliable data were limiting its ability to make informed decisions. With supporter and beneficiary information spread across multiple databases (and effectively siloed), the charity lacked a complete picture of the people it served and had little confidence in the quality and consistency of its data.
As the organisation prepared for a new website and wider digital transformation initiatives, it saw an opportunity to take a step back and assess its data landscape. Blind Veterans UK partnered with Euler to identify data quality issues, uncover opportunities for improvement and create a roadmap towards stronger governance, more efficient processes and a future single customer view.
Euler helped BVUK unlock value from its existing supporter data by combining data cleansing, enrichment and predictive modelling.
Working alongside trusted partners to enhance supporter records with additional demographic insight, Euler created a stronger foundation for identifying supporters most likely to re-engage with the charity.
Using this enriched dataset, Euler developed a propensity model to rank supporters according to their likelihood of responding to future campaigns. This enabled Barnardo's to focus marketing investment on the audiences with the greatest potential, while also uncovering new prospect opportunities and testing more targeted fundraising messages.
