DRTV Direct Response Television

Changing the Channel

Introducing a new model for Direct Response Television for Irish Fundraisers. One of the greatest challenges facing every fundraiser right now is the acquisition and retention of new donors. DRTV continues to be one of the most effective channels for fundraisers. But DRTV is changing rapidly. The shift from phone and text to predominantly digital response mechanisms has fundamentally changed the way that DRTV works.

At Persuasion Republic we have developed a new digital and data-driven model for DRTV in conjunction with our media partners, JAA, the leading DRTV and charity media specialists in the UK and Ireland.

On Thursday May 20th 2026, we will be hosting a special ‘Invitation Only’ Leaders Breakfast Showcase where we will demonstrate our DRTV model by inviting some of our current clients to share with you their experience and the results our DRTV model has already achieved for them.

On the day, Rob Patmore and our full DRTV team will be joined by JAA and some of the fundraising teams from LauraLynn and The Irish Red Cross who will explain how our DRTV model has worked for them and share with you the, at times, remarkable results that it has achieved.

Our colleagues in JAA will also give you a look under the hood of their powerful and proprietary JAA Charity IQ – JAA’s ‘real-time’ data analysis tool. This unique tool helps to minimise risk and increase effectiveness by providing you with more in-depth knowledge and analysis, more transparency and a much deeper understanding of your media spend.

The Showcase will take place in The Pavillion Room in the Camden Court Hotel, Camden Street, Dublin 2.
It runs from 9.30-11am, with breakfast being served from 9am.
This is an invitation only event. If you would like to attend, please contact

“We’ve loved working with Persuasion Republic to produce our new DRTV advert. It’s been a truly international effort with a project team from 4 countries, workshops in Copenhagen and Amsterdam, and filming in Johannesburg. Persuasion Republic’s input ensured the script and story are told emotionally and powerfully. Their whole team were amazing and a real pleasure to spend time with, both personally and professionally. They’ve also been brilliant at taking in our suggestions and comments on the creative so that the final advert and social media content meet our exact requirements. We would gladly work with them again.”
