Welcome to Akbik Strategies — a boutique woman-owned digital consulting agency dedicated to helping progressive candidates and organizations optimize their digital fundraising.

  • “I worked with Hannah for nearly four years, and it’s been nothing short of excellent. Her expertise and knowledge of digital fundraising and email strategies has helped increase our organizations’ revenue from grassroots donors year over year. She’s a delight to work with, offering guidance, thought partnership, and evidence-based recommendations on how to sustain and improve our grassroots fundraising strategies. She’s added capacity to our fundraising and communications teams when we needed it most and developed key strategies to bring on and keep new grassroots donors. She’s worked hard to understand our organizational voice and tone and made sure we were always set up to get the most out of our digital fundraising program. If you need to increase revenue – and engagement – from grassroots donors, I highly recommend working with Hannah and her team.”

  • "Hannah Akbik was a pleasure to work with. She is extremely organized and responsive. She helped us acquire additional list members and ensured that the tone of the emails matched our organization's mission and spirit. She was always happy to answer questions and explain her thought process on maximizing open rates."

    Rachael Jeck - Register Her

  • "Hannah supported NNAF's end of year appeal cycle two years after the Dobbs decision gutted abortion access and drove a wave of support to NNAF and abortion funds. Our top priority this year was to retain the donors who gave in the year following the decision. Hannah was invaluable in helping us to think strategically about when to contact donors, what to say, and how to ensure that increased communication didn't endanger our deliverability rate. The emails Hannah drafted fit our specified voice and tone, she made edits quickly, and she met every deadline we set. She even helped create two automated journeys for unengaged subscribers and monthly upgrade targets. If you're thinking of hiring Hannah, do it!"

    Laney Ohmans - National Network of Abortion Funds

  • “Hannah has been a pleasure to work with in creating, drafting and sending out fundraising emails for our non-profit organization. Her writing style and tone fits really well into our work and she has been very diligent in making sure the content of her fundraising emails match our values and overall mission. Her content ideas and strategy have helped our fundraising numbers jump up even in an off year election cycle including high open rates! She is very well organized, comes prepared to weekly check ins, and is always quickly able to draft rapid responses. Hannah provides a great service with high quality work.”

    Kathryn Personette - New Pennsylvania Project

How it works…

  • Plan

    Your program, mission, and voice are unique to you, and I always strive to use authentic storytelling. I achieve this by using my onboarding process to hear about you, your story, and your dreams. From there, I will create a strategic, content-driven program specifically designed for your audience, including developing a content calendar that is responsive to what is happening in the world and your backyard and conveys your vision.

  • Execute

    I handle everything from crafting authentic copywriting to design and production. Once the copy is approved, I will HTML code emails to create a visually appealing and dynamic program while utilizing industry best practices. I am data-driven and will use A/B testing, and list-specific segmentation to maximize your online engagement. Additionally, I will manage list growth strategies to ensure we are crafting a list that is engaged and donating.

  • Review

    My top priority is keeping your list engaged and healthy while increasing your bottom line. I track several data points to ensure we achieve that goal and optimize your digital presence. I will then report the findings and use the data to suggest future strategies. I believe your program is a conversation with your supporters. I will use the data we have gained to employ the most effective messaging and digital strategy for your unique program.
