Thanks for asking. There are some sites that say don’t use stats. and there are others that do. It really is about what works for your audience. No matter how many blog posts you read about how to write an appeal letter, good writing is never formulaic. So write the first draft, then revise, revise, show it to an elderly female relative, and revise again.

According to other sites, using statistics lowers giving levels from direct mail. (ie http://bit.ly/11ivZw8 or http://bit.ly/10wuAyd

Am I missing something here? Or is the answer: “it depends”?
