The Ask Guessing Game
Figuring out an Ask amount to start a gift discussion can be tricky. You don’t always have a credible grasp of a donor’s philanthropic capacity or readiness to give. Wealth estimates are only a starting point. It can make you feel like you are playing a guessing game that could harm a donor relationship or leave money on the table.

Make Every Ask Count
The Abacus™ Major Donor Ask Calculator picks up where philanthropic capacity estimates and other donor research leave off so you can calculate Asks that you can count on. The Calculator analyzes bias-free donor data specific to your organization to predict pledges. Using Human Intelligence, Abacus allows you to confidently make bold yet respectful Asks that will lead to maximum pledges.
