Data Mining and Screening

Factary can help you find the best prospects in your in-house database – whether that's a database of alumni, clients, donors, volunteers or just contacts.

Using a combination of data screening, demographic analysis and modelling, we can identify, name by name, the people in your database who could be your best, biggest donors.

Factary has been analysing and screening donor, alumni and box office databases for UK charities, universities and arts organisations since 1992. "Screening" means comparing the nonprofit database with a database of rich and/or powerful people; the comparison shows up those donors who, whatever they are giving now, are capable of a much larger gift or a legacy.

Factary Screening

We prepare a list of individuals who are on your database who match with individuals on our database of the wealthy and/or well connected people. The matches are presented in an Excel database that includes your record, category (for example, plc director, partner of top law firm) and a wealth segmentation showing potential major, high, mid or low value donor.

Screening finds;

  • Prospects for major gift campaigns
  • Individuals with connections to trusts or companies
  • Potential new board members and campaign leaders
  • Influential people living in your region
  • Celebrities, sports personalities, actors and musicians

We can provide various levels of report from a screening;

Overview Report

We prepare a list of individuals who are on your database who match with individuals on our database of the wealthy and/or well connected. The matches are presented in an Excel spreadsheet including listing of name, address and category, for example, 'rich list' entrants, plc directors, partners of top solicitors firms etc and a wealth segmentation indicating whether each individual is likely to be a potential major, high, mid or low value donor. This Excel spreadsheet is accompanied by a Research Guide providing a summary of our findings.
