Interesting stuff. I wasn't clear on what the "prospect research shop"'s business model was, though. I guess they simultaneously try to find donors for lots of different clients?

I wonder how much other nonprofit best practices type stuff SI could benefit from.

The article implies that usually large charities have their own prospect research shops. (I'd guess that small charities don't bother.)
