How to raise Maximum Funds One of many simple techniques to help you achieve Maximum Funds |
|
The pride
and joy of our program is sharing the dozens of little techniques and tidbits
that we have learned from our 800 previous, unique, sustainable
fundraising events spanning almost 10 years with each
new recipient. Here is just
one of many examples that we would like to share with you: Using
the VIP option to reach the 100% to you level. As
you may have noticed from our Ticket Breakdown Page (http://www.jazzforpeace.org/howto.html), VIP
Guests of Honor make out like BANDITS in
our quest to truly Honor those who have helped our recipients along the way
with HUGE price
savings ($50 per pair!) along with numerous other VIP perks that
can be quite extraordinary depending on the various sponsors of each event (Click here for complete VIP
Awards listing). Click
here to see a VIP Meet and Greet Pre-Event Ceremony: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb3TKWL98xY Our
special invite communicates the importance of this event to your VIP’s, and
of course your amazing organization and mission adds the all important
frosting to this cake. However when you throw in the $50 savings for
EACH VIP on their pair of tickets PLUS the spectacular
array of amenities listed in the link above, these can be very easy tickets
to sell when communicated to someone who is ALREADY a close friend,
supporter, associate, family member, or music & culture aficionado of
you, your board members, or anyone else on your VIP Committee Selection
Process. Simply
by assembling a Better
than Average VIP Committee as outlined at this link - http://www.jazzforpeace.org/formingavipcommittee/, you
can easily add to your allotment of VIP’s and then use that number to reach
the "100% to YOU!" goal of 220 Advance Ticket sales using a
combination of VIP's and Sponsors. This simple technique creates the
opportunity for your organization to achieve the MAXIMUM funding award! Here are the two steps for this MaxFunds
technique: 1. Use our Join Our VIP Committee document (click here for example) that
we will provide you to assemble a "better than average" VIP Invite
Committee consisting of Board Members and other enthusiastic friends and
supporters who are happy to invite VIP’s - each of whom will email the VIP
Jump Start Invitation for your event to 25-50 of their friends, family and
associates and then follow up with 8-10 of them by phone or in person. 2. You only need 35 VIP's
to confirm your event in the For
international Events click on http:www.jazzforpeace.org/international With
75 VIP's purchasing or sponsoring a pair of ½ price tickets each you now have
a total of 150 tickets sold. We
will then show you how to ADD a Gold Sponsor
(which counts as 50 tickets) and a Bronze Sponsor
(which counts as 20) and you now have 220
Advance Tickets SOLD and
you are now at the 100%
to you! Maximum
Funds Level! This
simple but substantial technique not only puts MORE
FUNDS into your coffers but also
allows you to receive 100%
to you of
each and every ticket sale, sponsorship etc. etc. that comes in from this
point forward putting you in the same Golden
Drivers Seat as
our biggest funding awards ever! Please
feel free to review this information which has helped so many others and ask
our Grant Administration Department to go over this technique and our other
sustainable fundraising techniques with you in more detail. The
