 Fundraising Tips: Six Ways To Motivate Your Fundraising Group A little motivation can go a long way. Motivate your group with prizes, prizes and more prizes without it costing a lot!
Rewards with no cash value are proven motivators and provide great entertainment. A few examples include:
Camp Out: have the principal camp out on the roof of the school or the group leader(s) camp out somewhere awkward if the goal is achieved. Set an even bigger goal to extend the number of days they must camp out there. Activity of Choice: let your group have an activity of their choice that replaces their normal schedule (for example: a free afternoon of sports activities in the school yard instead of class) For each small goal attained (ex. for every 10 units sold or $100 in sales reached) the participant gets their name put in the raffle for various merchandise. The more they sell, the more times they can have their name put in the raffle and the more chances they have to win. Reward your top seller with a Grand Prize. It may be a computer, a bike, movie tickets, cash or anything else that inspires your group members. Don't get carried away and offer something your group can't afford. This is a great way to motivate team work in your group. If you're a small group, you can create teams by putting your members in groups of twos, threes or fours. If you're a school you can do it by class and if you're a league simply do it by team. You can offer the best selling group a free pizza party, a field trip outing to the place of their choice... ask them what they'd like. Try an ice cream social, everybody likes ice cream! Read about an ice cream social here. Offering individual completion prizes is very because they motivate and reward everyone in your organization. Offer a completion gift once your member raises a certain amount. For example: Receive $10 cash for every $100 of product sold. Other completion prizes may be a gift certificate to a music, video, book, or sports store. To help move your fundraiser along, you can offer early bird prizes to the first, second and third person who reaches a specific objective by a certain deadline. For example: if you launch the fundraiser on Monday, you can say the first three people that generate $100 in sales or more by Friday will receive a $15 gift certificate. Also Remember:
Choose the Right Rewards: What could be worse than no incentives and rewards? Investing in rewards which simply don't motivate your members! Make sure the rewards you choose are relevant to your member's age group and interests. Ask them what they'd like to receive as incentives given a certain budget. |
