Why can’t we find everything?
� There are limits to all prospect research
� Most wealth is not visible to researchers
• But if you can find some wealth, that is a good indicator that more assets are likely available
� Donors are good at hiding their assets
Page #11 © 2010 Blackbaud
� What we do find may be incomplete
• Depends on whether or not the data is self-reported, required but the government, or the requirements and formats change from one county to the next
� Additional research required to confirm and flesh out data
Blackbaud Online User Clinic
Before you search…
� The prospect needs to be added to ResearchPoint
� Make sure the full name and address have been entered correctly
� Add spouse and employer when you have it

Wealth-Based Capacity Ratings
� Each prospect who is screened through WealthPoint automatically receives a wealth-based capacity rating:
• Major Giving Capacity (MGC)
• Total philanthropic capacity
• Assumes at least a 2-5 year pledge
Page #17 © 2010 Blackbaud
� MGC formula is configurable
• Current formula:
• Estimated Wealth is the sum of confirmed assets from all sources
• MGC = 5% of Estimated Wealth
