FEEDBACK ABOUT INGRID
We have been working with and consulting with charities, fundraisers and agencies to shape Ingrid as well as to deliver great corporate research. Here are some of the things they had to say...
Alex Fleming
Head of Corporate Business Development
UNICEF UK
Ziptrix’s contribution to our corporate prospecting work at UNICEF UK has been both informative, timely and assumption challenging! Ingrid offered a sound rationale as well as a clear pathway to approach potential partners, whilst working with Tom and Chloe was a genuinely fun and interesting experience. The final report provides a helpful foundation for our next steps in corporate partnership development.
Barnie Abraham
Corporate Partnerships Officer
Friends of the Earth
Chloe and Tom at Ziptrix are exactly the kind of people the charity sector needs more of: passionate experts who truly understand how technology can deliver meaningful benefits to strengthen the important work we do.
They were clear with what we needed to provide to use their platform, and made it straightforward to engage with them at every step along the way. They identified a range of interesting prospects we might never have identified without their external expertise, providing contact details and a trove of other useful information to make the next steps well-defined.
Jen Carruthers Jones
Head of Fundraising and Partnerships
National Energy Action
Having recently worked with Ziptrix, we are really happy with the information and report provided.
Ziptrix can help charities big and small to identify some non-traditional corporate partners who fit with their charities aims and objectives and they provide a lot more detail than would come through in a traditional prospecting report. This is essential for charities who are short on time but want to make a proactive approach to corporate partnerships.
Abi Farrell
Prospect Development Manager
Action for Children
The team at Ziptrix put together a detailed report for us into 17 potential Corporate funders. We were encouraged to see that for some of those, the Corporate team had had past contact or conversations. We thought this was a very good sign that the research was very well focused on companies which would have strong capacity, affinity and propensity to support our work. Those funders with whom the team hadn’t had past conversations, were outside our current sectors of prospecting focus. However, these still proved to be strong prospects with plenty of potential for the team to consider approaching. Overall, the research provided to us gave a strong combination of new leads to suggest to the Corporate team, as well as serving as a strong reminder that much of our research criteria seems to be on the right track. Charities may find that working with Ziptrix could be a good way of broadening horizons for potential corporate partnership leads. From our experience, working with Ziptrix was a wonderful way of reviewing our existing focuses and harnessing the power of new technologies to ensure we aren’t missing any important leads.

Working in a small charity, juggling multiple income streams can be challenging. Finding
time to do research as well as delivery is a challenge. My Ziptrix Ingrid report has enabled
me to fast-track my way through to developing proposals.
It’s a really clear report - with all the research and values alignment clearly stated, a detailed
outline of why the prospects were a match, their normal giving levels (so you can pitch at the
right level to start with!), and a bunch of other useful stuff.
This has saved me hours of desk-based research, opened my mind to some new opportunities to look at. And honestly, trying to find diary time to set aside for research can be a real challenge, especially when it’s a
daunting job.
This report means I can get on with prioritising making the ask and maximizing the mission. Hurrah!

Development Officer (Corporate)
Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust
Ziptrix provided a super insightful corporate prospect report to support our partnership development work. The pre-report briefing call was really thorough and enjoyable, with Chloe taking the time to understand our charitable objectives and what we look for in a corporate partner. This led to a detailed report of prospects matching our search criteria with really useful insights throughout. The format of the report was great and made it easy to digest the level of detail involved.
The depth of research delivered by Ingrid would have taken days/weeks for a member of our staff to come up with so the Ziptrix service is a big time saver. The report will be really helpful in driving our business development work in the months ahead, giving us a fantastic foundation from which to engage new prospects. I would be happy to recommend the services of Chloe, Tom and Ingrid – they really get the charitable space and through Ingrid, have a valuable tool to support fundraising growth.
We would love to work with you on your corporate prospect research and can even put you in touch with professional fundraisers or trainers who are experts in corporate fundraising. Get in touch!
