Best Fundraising Tips

Maximized Value Leads To Maximized Results
Make this your basic goal. Having more value means reaching more prospects. More value means more buyers and donors. More value means more a better ROI for your group or charity!

State A Value Proposition
Sum up the specifics of what you're doing and why in two sentences or less. State exactly what your fundraiser is all about. Make sure it has a compelling call to action. Include it in all your communications and fit it into your sales script.

Learning To Help Others
Don't forget to increase your organization's visibility by giving back to the community. Visit the elderly, volunteer your group to help with other charity work such as Special Olympics or Community Warmth programs. Work with groups like the ASPCA.  Write letters to military personnel posted overseas, or other causes that have special meaning or relationship to your group.

Set A Published Goal
Make a commitment about your group's fundraising goal and state it publicly. This causes your mind to internalize it as a verbal commitment. Your goal should be realistic, but also aim high. Structure your sales efforts to emphasize and reward achievement of that goal.

Keep It Fun
Fun is part of fundraising. Don't make it drudgery to be a volunteer or a participant. Remember that they're giving up their free time to help. Plan fun things to do during each stage of the process that reward involvement.

Quality, Quality, Quality
Quality presentations and quality goods mean more sales. Quality rewards mean more motivation. A quality program exudes confidence and confidence breeds success.

Avoid Any Unnecessary Risk Taking
Always caution against unsafe selling practices. All neighborhood sales activities should include adult accompaniment. Seller safety should be your very highest priority.

Have A Written Project Plan
Run your fundraiser like a small business. Have a written project plan that spells out all roles and responsibilities. Slot motivated individuals into those roles and equip them with everything they need to do a great job.
