How to Prepare for your Fundraiser Kickoff

How to Prepare for your Fundraiser Kickoff
How to Prepare for a School Fundraiser Kickoff

Get your students excited about selling.

The kickoff is one of the essential parts of your entire fundraiser. The primary purpose of the kickoff is to generate enthusiasm and support for your cause. In other words, you have to sell your campaign to your students.

If you're successful and your students buy-in, you will have created much-needed sales momentum to help you reach your financial objective.

But creating enthusiasm and momentum is just the beginning. You'll also need to work to keep the sales coming in throughout your fundraiser.

In addition to preparing for your kickoff, this ebook touches on sales accountability, online selling, delivery issues, and post-fundraiser analysis.

This was our first fundraiser and it ran very smoothly. It helped to have the packet to explain the fundraiser process. I had a team in place that facilitated the fundraiser which made my job much easier. We were pleased with the profits and especially the super party. Big Fundraising Ideas was very helpful throughout the entire program. Thanks again for helping our first fundraiser to be a huge success.

Our experience with y'all has been fantastic!!! Everyone in the office has been so helpful, especially with our endless questions! We really loved that the products came in already boxed with the students name, teacher and grade on a label! You have no idea how much stress that took off! That is always one of the biggest hassles!

Thank you so much for making this the most stress free fundraiser ever! We look forward to working with you again!

The fundraiser went extremely well. From my perspective I had very little leg work to do. Collecting and mailing was all and when the product arrived it was very well organized into the individual classes. I think it went very well and will look forward to running it again next year.
