Agree with Karen above - please make it clear in the Title of the webinar whether it is about an additional product (Blackbaud Advisory), or it is being mis-advertised.

Christy Turner · Answer

To clarify, while I am a RENXT consultant and there are a couple of slides briefly introducing my services, the main focus of the webinar is on the functionality and benefits of RENXT’s online giving forms. The presentation is designed to help attendees understand why these forms are worth considering and how to implement them effectively.

It’s definitely not a sales pitch—my goal is to provide practical, product-focused insights that will help you make informed decisions. I’ll be walking through the features and best practices for using RENXT donation forms, and I’ll be happy to take questions about functionality during the session.

If you already have a question in mind, feel free to share it here—I’d love to make sure it’s addressed during the webinar!

Karen Diener · Answer

This sounds like a sales pitch for Blackbaud's consulting services, and not a demonstration of donation forms.  Could you confirm?  I do have at least one question about the functionality of donation forms and would like to ask it and attend the webinar, but not if you aren't discussing the product.
