I focus on helping nonprofits integrate their online communications across departments and #1 is hard for many development/membership departments to swallow, but it is a necessary pill to take. I love that you included using missionaries as one of your top three tips. I'm a huge proponent for empowering your volunteers to be evangelists and fundraisers for you; especially for smaller nonprofits who have smaller staffs and budgets. They have to embrace this and like you said, create a "systematic program to identify and activate current donors". I wish all nonprofits and their consultants would read this post!!
