How can I
make our fundraiser more successful? |
|
The most important factors
are any activities that increasing involvement in your
fundraiser.
Don't
let the fundraiser go on of too long. 2 to 3 weeks should be
enough time for your customers to make their decisions about
bulbs for their garden and get the forms back to you.
Avoid giving out
brochures over school holidays or creating a return date that
is longer than 3 weeks as the brochures may go missing and
your fundraising effort will loss momentum.
At every available
opportunity remind your customers of the return date for their
order forms.
Remind your customers of
what the money you raise is going towards.
Use news letters and
notice boards to remind, inform and encourage your customers
to participate in your fundraising program.
