What is it?Donation Studio is an effort to run your thrift store more efficiently. Our developers have been (and still are) working with people in the thrift industry to find out how we can serve you best. Our goal is to help you get rid of as much paper records as possible. Instead we want to provide you with a state of the art program, that interfaces with high speed databases, to manage your records, and make your business run smoother than ever before. You can also do things with digital records that you were not able to do with paper records, such as send automatic email receipts, instant search, and data exports for marketing and email mailing lists. Many thrift stores are still using carbon paper to record and store their donation records. With Donation Studio you can throw that carbon paper away (or perhaps recycle it).

Here is what Donation Studio can do for you:

• Provide a kiosk for your customers to record their donations, and have a receipt printed and/or emailed to them on the spot.
• Provides you with a robust search so that you can find old records, then view, edit, print or email them.
• Design the theme for your kiosk to match the look and style of your store.
• Export the customer list to use easily with other services, such as Constant Contact
• Manage accounts for your employees and control employee access to certain features
