The SmartKoz Solution

How it Works

Key Features

The SmartKoz Network

Network Effect Multiplication (2.5x Reach Multiplier)
For every cause onboarded, the system expands their direct audience by leveraging AI-driven analytics and predictive algorithms. This results in an exponential increase in exposure to potential donors and supporters.
Cross-Cause Synergy
By analyzing relationships and overlaps between causes, the network facilitates collaboration and co-promotion, adding an extra 15% reach per partnership. For example, if two causes share similar missions, the network will recommend ways they can engage together to maximize awareness and funding.
Referral Conversion Analysis
Tracks how referrals are shared between causes and businesses, with a baseline conversion rate of 3%. This ensures that referrals are not just tracked but optimized for higher engagement and donor conversion.
BNI Chapter Integration
The network leverages Business Network International (BNI) chapters to tap into their 35-member average size, creating an ecosystem of businesses that contribute to cause growth.
