Typically, a campaign starts strong, hits a lull and then picks up again near the end. So it’s crucial to start strong. Momentum builds on momentum. Get better results by beginning with a bang:
- Hold a kick-off event for the campaign.
- Get your board to create fundraising pages first.
- Find partner organizations to help fundraise.
- Leverage offline events.
- Build anticipation through newsletters.
- Encourage fundraisers to be the first to donate.
7. Empower your fundraisers
Peer-to-peer fundraising turns your community into fundraisers, but they need coaching on how to fundraise to the best of their abilities. Here are ways to help them along:
- Provide talking points and standard text.
- Encourage fundraisers to continue to take action themselves.
- Highlight effective fundraisers, and share what they’re doing.
- Provide best practices in fundraising.
- Give regular updates on progress so they see where they stand.
8. Communicate regularly
Communication equals updating plus appreciation plus encouragement. These are the three purposes of communication. In peer-to-peer fundraising, all communications should be defined with one or more of these purposes.
