Join Jennifer Filla for a candid discussion about prospect research. Find out what prospect research is, how you're already doing it, and how to do more - ethically. Drawing comparisons with prospect research practices in for profit sales and drawing from studies on consumer and nonprofit donor expectations on the use of their data, Jen will help you shift your perspective to that of the donor and the AFP Donor Bill of Rights. She will also discuss ways you can protect all of your confidential data, inside your organization and when working with outside vendors.
