Additional
Clarification and Time Saving Tips:
To help you and your
Board decide who will be allowed to invite the VIP Guests of Honor for this
historic event.
Here is a timesaving tip
that we have learned from our previous events that may be helpful and
timesaving for you as well.
Ask a few of the very
closest members of your organization (most often these are board members but
can sometimes include non board members in addition)
to take just one or 2 minutes to click on your personal VIP Invite Committee
Link that we will provide for you (https://jazzforpeace.org/vipcommittee), and while looking at the information either
click on the submit button at the bottom or offer you feedback.
From here we could
arrange a conference call with a few of these people to go over the information
in the link above as well as the information below should additional
clarification be requested.
By simply emailing our
Jump Start Invitation that we create for you to 25 – 50 people and following up
with a handful of them by phone or email inviting them to CA$H IN on the $50
savings and special VIP rewards outlined at this link: https://jazzforpeace.org/faq7a.html, a VIP INVITE Committee member helps us get the
ROOTS in place QUICKLY (https://jazzforpeace.org/tree) so that we
have plenty of time to promote this event to the general public and grow each
Branch of our Empowerment Tree.
Having these “ROOTS” in
place quickly enables our Team begin the process of growing your Empowerment
Tree. This is ESPECIALLY important if you are a busy, overwhelmed and/or
understaffed organization with a lot on your plate – click here for additional
clarification - https://jazzforpeace.org/faq21a.html
Based on the guidelines
of what qualifies as a true VIP Guest of Honor for this event (Brother, Sister,
best friend, closest and most trusted confidantes, supporters etc. as detailed HERE),
each VIP INVITE Committee member generally has anywhere from 3 – 9 people in
their world who would easily qualify. By following the 2 easy steps of emailing
our Jump Start Letter with your event date and time on it to 25-50 of their
closest and most important and special people each and following up with 8-10
of those people either by phone or in person to make sure they received and
read the information as well as answer any questions that they might have these
3-9 people per person on average are easily obtained.
While the mid to high
end range of this estimation is more likely the norm, even in the very lowest
range scenario, 11 VIP INVITE Committee Members gathering just 3 VIPs
each who are willing to be honored at this event (while saving $50 on their pair
of tickets as well as the option to attend a VIP ceremony that may have free
food, free drinks, free gifts and more as part of one of the most amazing
concerts that they will go to the entire year while helping an equally amazing
cause that their loved one is a core member or supporter of) is still a total
including themselves of 44 VIPs (88 tickets total) which is more than enough to
confirm this event with funds already raised for you AND enable us to show the
general public, the press and media, prestigious supporters, potential sponsors
and prospective venues EXACTLY what they are looking for – a prestigious event
with a long track record of proven success that has been CONFIRMED in the very
same way as all of our other greatest events.
Now with these wonderful,
strong ROOTS in place (https://jazzforpeace.org/tree) we can obtain the venue (on strong negotiating
terms), print the tickets, generate publicity, flyer, press release, sponsors
etc. etc. and begin inviting all of the NON VIP guests.
Please let me know if
you or any of your VIP INVITE Committee Members has any questions about this
important step (ROOTS) which will enable us to begin to actually grow our
Empowerment Tree and achieve our Goal for your event to be one of our most
successful events ever.
