Changing Membership Levels

Jenny Pessereau

Hi,


We are cleaning up our membership levels on Raiser's Edge and I'd love to hear from those of you who  have done this successfully. We are a small nonprofit where changes over 40 years have resulted in 10 membership levels. We now give the same benefits (newsletter, hike guide, etc.) to all but our highest donors, so we are collapsing our lower levels into broader dollar ranges for donations.  We will handle the messaging to donors in two months while I work out the technical end.


Have you done this at your organization? What were the critical steps to take? Any miss-steps you would do differently today?


Many thanks for your advice!
