Sasha:

 

I’ve completed ‘my questions’ on it and gave it to Laura – she’l answering the Dev staffing ones and will send it on.

 

Regarding the last questions, here are my responses:

• If you could change one thing about how SNAP operates what would it be
• This can be an individual question for the two of you to answer separate

I answered it with ‘collaboration’ on the other sheet but wanted to add:   better Board member understanding of their role and how they support the organization.   Think they need some education on their fiduciary responsibility.

• Does SNAP hit it's fundraising goal every year
• If not, what happens or gets cut

SNAP’s fundraising is up and down from year to year – the usual ‘sustainability’ challenge that non-profits have.   We experience a number of key challenges (like many non profits) in terms of fundraising for ‘unrestricted funds’ vs. ‘restricted (or program specific) fund’ vs. ‘capital expenses’.  We generally have not had too many challenges with restricted or program specific funding as these are primarily sourced from grants or specific sponsorship of activity (such as a mobile trip).   The restricted funding pretty much exclusively goes to funding free surgeries primarily on the mobile to income qualified recipients.

Unrestricted funding are funds that come to us for our ‘discretionary’ use.   These primarily go to funding what might be considered overhead – administrative and development functions.  These funds are much more difficult to raise.   The primary sources of these funds are individual contributions, some corporate contributions (mainly employer matching), and event proceeds.   In FY14, we’ve done well on individual contributions and not so well on event proceeds. We also had issues with two large amounts of funding, one from a municipality and one from an inheritance that were anticipated but did not come through.  Focusing on event proceeds will be a key objective for FY15.   FY13 was a fortunate year for us as we received over $500K in proceeds from two inheritances.

I might mention that the SNAP business model covers ‘overhead’ (admin and dev costs) through the unrestricted funding but also relies on margins (contribution) from the stationary clinics.   The overhead, which is actually a low percentage of expenses, runs somewhere between $700-800K per year.  In FY14 we budgeted $200K in contribution from the Houston clinic and ‘break even’ from the San Antonio and Pasadena clinics.  This means that the Dev team has to raise the remaining $500-600K.  From the municipality and inheritance, we anticipated that $140K would be covered.   The inheritance did not pan out and we’re still fighting the municipality for $75K.     The Pasadena Clinic has broken even and actually may have made a few thousand.  I suspect the Houston Clinic will be on track.  The other issue is the San Antonio Clinic which is showing a deficit due to the municipal funding of animals done at the stationary clinic – we lose approx.. $38/animal on each animal done on that program.  For FY14, we have covered $100K in those losses.   We’re working with the city animal services to change the mechanisms of that funding to reduce those deficits – or we’re just not going to be able to do as many animals under that program!

Regarding capital expenses – we generally have campaigns and seek out grant funding to cover, for example, new clinic build-out and equipment costs.   The challenge here is balancing the ‘asks’ from the donor base between the capital campaigns and program funding.  Becomes an ‘either or’ situation.

Regarding what we do if we don’t achieve funding targets.   For restricted or program funding – we reduce the number of free surgeries we do which generally equates to fewer trips of the mobile or we take fewer animals at the stationary clinic for free.   An example is the City of San Antonio funding that has ‘run out’ at the end of April – we just stopped taking appointments for free in May and June.  Of course this means that the number of animals that we’ve done at the clinic have gone down by 200-300 per month.

With reductions in unrestricted funding, we have fewer ‘levers to pull’.   Generally, we reduce admin/dev expenditures to a minimum.  We increase campaigns and smaller events or low cost donor solicitation (social media type things).   We also have been more closely monitoring supply costs at the stationary clinics to ensure margins/contribution are achieved – we’ve had to have a couple price increases in the past fiscal year.  Our success or lack of success in this arena, generally shows up in increased payables balances!

Laura/David,

 

Can you guys please answer the questions below about SNAP. Also, please fill out the attached excel document to the best of your ability (you will need to send this out for others to fill out) . Note: the questions below are more critical to the project than the data capture sheet. We only need 3 individuals to fill out each tab (Vet, Staff, Volunteer, Animal and Event) in the data capture sheet. The larger data capture effort can take place later, if you want to implement our recommendations. 

 

If you can get the questions below back by end of week and the attached data capture sheet back by July 3rd that would be great. 

 

Thanks!

• Does the organization have issues accepting change
• Was there support from all level's within SNAP to improve/change 
• How did you communicate that these projects/initiatives are in place 

• Internal stakeholder (employees, volunteers) 
• External stakeholder (donors)

• Lessons learned from past projects would be great

• Based on the SNAP culture, what are critical success factors to implement change
• What has worked well in the past and what didn't work well
• What is the biggest challenge (besides funding) that you are currently dealing with
• What is the biggest challenge (besides funding) that will impact a proposed change project
• What motivates and inspires the organization (people, animals, the work, the culture, self motivation, etc)
• Are there company wide meetings or events that take place that bring everyone together
• Is the turnover low or high at the executive level, manager level, lower levels and volunteer level
• Do you see any gaps in the current workforce in terms of capabilities to do their jobs well

• If so, what areas need the most help/support

• What is the best corporate function that SNAP does (HR, payroll, website management, supply chain)
• What is the worst corporate function that SNAP does
• How are volunteers viewed at SNAP by internal employees
• How often do you meet with donors
• Are donors often volunteers
• Do you track how the SNAP pets are doing after their procedure
• Do you pass out shirts or bags with the SNAP logo on them to donors or pet owners who take their animals to SNAP
• How large is the social media team
• How large is the branding team
• How large is the fundraising team
• If you could change one thing about how SNAP operates what would it be

I started writing the overview together and copied some of the responses for the "Assessment of the Organization."  I can keep working on the assessment of the organization tomorrow by incorporating David and Laura responses, so can you guys start on some of the other sections (Critical Success Factors in Need of Improvement e.g fundraising and branding, Change Vision and Goals, and Change Implementation Plan?  I started a reference section at the end of the paper so we can note where we are getting our data from.  We can work on the conclusion/wrap-up after we are close to getting the paper finished.  

Should we have a status meeting this Thursday evening to see how things are going before the long weekend?  Let me know if you guys think we should have one and if you guys are available to meet.  We'll probably have to meet a few more times next week to finalize the paper and start going through the presentation.

Thanks.

ACTION ITEMS that are DUE SUNDAY at 2pm:

• Tony: SNAP overview, introduction of paper and conclusion of paper. Also, Tony will compile a first draft
• Lavan: Fundraising
• Linda: Branding
• Trey: Social Media
• Sasha: Implementation and PowerPoint deck shell

Everyone needs to write a minimum of 3 pages for their section and send it to Tony 2pm this coming SUNDAY. We are going to meet at 8pm on SUNDAY to discuss the gaps in the paper and what is left to do. I will have a PowerPoint template ready by then that we will break up into sections so each member can build out their respective slides. Whatever you build you will present. Slides and the Paper will be due on Wednesday at 8pm...that way we have a one day to fine tune both deliverables. 

Happy 4th of July weekend!!!!!

[Trey Watkins]

Sorry guys. I couldn't break away. 3 pages double spaced right? I'll have it done. 

[Alexander Petrovic]

Team,

Attached is the presentation template. I created shell slides for each of us to work on (your name will be in your respective slide). The shell slides are based on our paper structure as well as the evaluation sheet but we can adjust the format as needed. 

I uploaded the deck to DRIVE under the FINAL DELIVERABLE folder. Not sure if this link will work or not: https://drive.google.com/?authuser=0#folders/0BzfgI3zKwDILcDMyV3BsTktnZW8

Regards,

-Sasha

[Alexander Petrovic]

Team,

Attached is the Implementation section of the paper. I will need input from Trey (social media), Lavan (fundraising) and Linda (branding) to further build out those respective implementation sections based on what the final recommendations are. I think what I have thus far is 75% complete and the framework I built should fit any recommendation that we come up with.

Tony...please add this to the master paper that you're compiling. 

Regards,

-Sasha

[Lavan Reddy]

I have uploaded the fundraising section to the googgle drive. Let me know if anything else needs to be included in it. I haven't included the recos' since we'll be having a separate section for it.

Lavan.

[Linda Ly]

My section is attached. It’s a little shorter than 3 pages but I feel like I would be repeating a lot of Social Media and Fundraising. I’ll add some more when we get it all merged into one document. 

BTW, I can’t see anything on Drive so I just put it in Dropbox and I also attached to this email. Can you guys check to see that I have access to the folder on Drive because that is the error I’m getting. 

[Tony Nguyen]

Thanks guys for your portions.  I am starting to put together the paper so I will try to send out a rough draft tomorrow to everyone to take a look at before the meeting.  Just glancing through what has been provided, there is definitely some overlap so I will edit where I think is appropriate but we can always add back in something I removed if you guys thing we should have it.

Linda, everyone in our wth google group should have access to our google drive folder.  Try this link:

Team,

Thanks everyone for providing their parts timely.  I am still working my parts of the paper since it is taking some work to incorporate the 7 Ss and strategy diamond into the organization assessment part of the paper.  I would appreciate any comments or input you guys have on these areas.  However, here is a very rough draft of what we have so far.  Definitely needs some work to make the transitions smooth and avoid some duplication.  Can everyone take a look and provide comments for each section?  We can discuss tonight how much focus we need to put into any of the areas (if any).  I'll have a conclusion ready by then that we can discuss, but we are at about 16 pages now.

[Tony Nguyen]

Linda/Lavan,

Here are some of the things we discussed during our meeting:

Fundraising: For the numbers and figures that are provided, we need to provide some additional detail about why all those numbers are significant related to fundraising.  Otherwise, maybe we take it out since there is a lot of info and it was a bit confusing to read.  Can you also incorporate the items related to fundraising from the last meeting with the SNAP Folks and elaborate on those 6 items?  You were missing the recommendations part of the fundraising section.

We have locked down scope for the SNAP Capstone project to the following items:

Branding

1. Social Media Recommendations 
• How to mange and utilize your website, instagram, facebook and twitter accounts
  
2. Identify key areas of SNAP to highlight (Vet's, staff, pets, events, etc)
• We will be sending out data capture templates for you to fill out so we can better understand the organization
3. New Logo Design
• We are working on several drafts and will send them over for your feedback within the next 7 days

Fundraising

1. Community groups
2. Corporate sponsorship
3. Partner program options/ideas
4. Establish fundraising goals/milestones and how to present them 
5. Donations via social media
6. Referral programs 

Branding/Logos - since we may not get a decision this week on what logo they want to go with, we can modify the branding portion of the paper to talk about the need for SNAP to evaluate their logo and make a change based on some of the suggestions we provided.  It was really more about getting them to think about that process for now.

Finally, please check the 7 S's, Strategy Diamond, and Change Implementation portions of the paper to ensure there are no major contradictions in your areas and the paper.

We will plan to meet again Tuesday night, and the goal is to have the paper as close to being finalized as possible and for a rough draft of the slides to go over.  We will be presenting Friday so not too much time remaining.  Thanks everyone for your hard work so far.

Lavan...below is the email that was sent out after our last SNAP meeting. Per Tony's note, we need #1-6 to be included in our paper from the Fundraising section. Those are our fundraising recommendations to improves SNAP's ability to raise money.

Ok. Its these 6 points.

[Trey Watkins]

Complete with my updates outside of these bullet points for Sasha:

http://business.instagram.com/ provides step-by-step recommendations for businesses to develop and maintain their IG accounts.  

Last year, IG grew faster than facebook, twitter, and pinterest combined according to http://www.digitaltrends.com/social-media/instagram-is-growing-faster-than-twitter-facebook-and-pinterest-combined-in-2013/#!99N53 so it's really important to catch this wave.

Twitter and IG allow easy public interaction just like facebook.  As long as someone is monitoring it, potential donors' questions can be answered.  Someone has to commit a significant portion of their day and also watch their phones for updates.

[Alexander Petrovic]

Team,

I just read the paper and this is my feedback (a lot of what Tony already sent out but this is my brain dump):

Branding (linda) and Social Media (trey): we need to sync these two up on terms how HOW to use social media to improve the brand. The brand will improve if people get to know SNAP as an organization. This is part of the data capture exercise that SNAP is working on for us. We want the SNAP brand to come "alive" and in order to do that we need to put a face on the organization. That face needs to be the SNAP staff and the pets that SNAP works on. Take a look at the data capture template I sent over and incorporate that into branding and social media in terms of what we will be messaging and how this will improve the brand. Part of improving the brand is getting more donors, more volunteers and more word of mouth about SNAP. Getting to know that people and the pets of SNAP will help that. We should include ideas like "Vet of the Month" or "Pet of the Month" to highlight the organization. Maybe on Instagram we post updates on a pet for a months time. I think we need to give them ideas for what to post and how to build social media momentum. Also, we need to include our recommendation to create local SNAP community groups to raise money that will benefit the community directly. These community groups can link to SNAP's facebook account, twitter or instagram accounts. How to create these groups and the purpose of the groups needs to be addressed. Does each group have them own facebook page that links to SNAPs? What about instagram? Is there a community gropu champion? How do these champions interface with the SNAP social media employee? What are we creating them...to allow others to fundraise on behalf of SNAP, to promote the SNAP brand and to allow SNAP to start to service some of the these areas with their vet services by educating local communities of their services. It's a way to UP-SELL their services. 

Branding (linda): Include the additional logo that I sent last night as a sample. The language around the logo needs to be more around SNAP thinking about their brand and less about choosing a logo. Our samples are just to get them thinking about different ways to position their logo as a brand. They don't necessarily have to use any of our ideas. We want SNAP to look at the logo and think about how a paw can be used....how a bone can be the bar in stop the cycle and then they can refine it over time and come up with a new logo. 

Fundraising (lavan): needs 1-6 recommendations in order to improve their ability to raise money. 

[Alexander Petrovic]

attached is Trey's draft with my updates...remember that Tony owns the master.

I'll send out a revised copy of the paper tonight after I get a chance to incorporate everyone's changes.  If you guys want to send me your slides I can also consolidate those as well.

Also, as I was creating my slides I realized a lot of what I was doing was more around recommendations and not implementation so Lavan (slide 1) and Linda (slide 2 and 3) please take a look. I think what we have now is a bit lite on content but it's your section so you make the call.

Added in Sasha's slides.  I left Linda's recommendation slide in there so you guys can decide how to proceed.  I will update my conclusion slide based on what you guys decide to keep for the recommendations part.

You can take my recommendation slide out. Sasha's says it much more eloquently. Maybe Trey can present the second branding slide since it has to do with social media.

Latest versions of the paper and presentation for our meeting tonight.  I expanded on the shares values part of the 7 S's and added in the responses from the SNAP folks on why the work SNAP does is so important just to emphasize that the staff is passionate about their work.

Team,

Here is the latest slide deck with the changes we made during the meeting.  I consolidated the critical success factors and recommendations section, so let me know if I put anything out of order.

For the guys getting in earlier, let me know when you guys get in tomorrow so we can maybe do 1 or 2 more run throughs.  The presentation is definitely getting a lot better and we should be able to get it under the 15 minutes.  I'll look through the paper tomorrow morning so please send me any further changes before noon tomorrow.  I also attached the latest version of the paper (no changes since Tuesday) so you guys can read through it again.  I'll submit the presentation and paper shortly after lunch tomorrow.

Have a safe trip to Austin guys and see you tomorrow.  Jeans and collar shirts for the presentation!
