The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising

The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising

The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising was originally produced in 2008 as a soft cover guide which provided practical ideas and advice for community groups wanting to raise funds. Topics covered in the guide included Getting Started, Planning an Event, Sponsorship, Community Funding and Marketing. It also provided details about running specific events such as discos, gala days, food stalls, raffles, tours, auctions and more.

By the end of 2009, 20,000 FREE copies had been distributed to community groups throughout the country.

Due to the demand for the information contained in the guide, The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising is now available for purchase on CD. Click here to find out more.

Gift Baskets
St. Valentine's Day, Easter and Christmas are all a great opportunity to sell luxurious gift baskets and with careful planning it can be a real money spinner.

Simply make a sample of three or four different styled gift baskets and visit local businesses asking for orders. Industrial areas are particularly good as men like to have the perfect gift solution without having to think very hard!

Once you have taken the order, ask your customer to pay in advance, or at least pay a healthy deposit. This ensures the sale actually goes through and gives you some cash flow to prepare your baskets. Deliver the baskets on a pre-agreed day.
