Strategies to Increase Earnings for your Cause

_________________________________________

1. If your Cause's Supporters don't already know, there are many great deals on the web

• Printer Cartridges are typically less expensive on the web and very convenient to order. These companies also provide excellent rebates for your Cause, often have no tax and free shipping! You can find these Advertisers under our Office Supplies Category

• Flowers and Floral Arrangements for Birthdays, Holidays and other special occasions are very simple to order on the internet.

• Gift Certificates - Many advertisers pay rebates for purchases of gift certificates (though not all will do this).

• Gifts - Unlike small mall gift stores, FundraisingFish.com gives you access to many distinctive and unique gift sites. Many of these sites don't have significant overhead so they can avoid that expense and pass that savings on to you.

• Some companies let you order on the web and pick up locally. This is a great time saver. It's Fast, Free and Convenient.

• Specials - Many Advertisers have great specials and you can browse many of them right here on our "Specials" pages. We regularly update these pages as we get new specials to pass on to you.

• Does any of your supporters like to Cruise? One Cruise booking through Cruise Direct on FundraisingFish.com can make a huge difference in your fundraising productivity.

2. Many websites do NOT charge sales tax and they also don't charge shipping fees for orders exceeding a certain amount.... so if you have many things, purchase all at once.

3. Do you make regular purchases over the web? Create a list of those items you regularly purchase and where you purchase them from. Find the Advertiser on FundraisingFish.com and click on their link before you make your purchase. This ensures the rebate you earn goes to your Cause. Can't find the advertiser you use? Just send us a note and we'll see if we can include them in our Advertiser list.

4. Set goals for your Cause's fundraising. Is your Cause saving for something special? Let all your Cause Supporters know.

5. If you are switching your TV service to dish, you will likely use their on line service. Before you purchase, access their site by clicking on the link at FundraisingFish.com and make sure your purchase helps your Cause. 

6. Create a network at FundraisingFish.com. Just refer FundraisingFish.com to others and when they sign up their Cause, not only will their Cause benefit, but your Cause will too.

7. Create a fundraising drive. Set aside a two week interval where you and your Cause Supporters focus purchasing a particular item at FundraisingFish.com. This could be run just like a traditional fundraising drive. This is best run near holidays. For example, you can run a flower drive for 2 weeks before Valentine's Day, a shoe drive for back to school, etc...

8. Get your business involved in purchasing supplies through FundraisingFish.com. Not only will your business get your normal purchases for probably less than what you are paying now, but your Cause will benefit each time they buy. Paper, Printer Cartridges, Electronics, Pens/Pencils, Gifts can all be ordered on line.

9. The FundraisingFish.com program won't work unless Cause Supporters are aware of the program. Important points to remember are:

   • The program is free to Causes and Supporters

   • FundraisingFish.com does not collect any personal information for the Supporters (we don't even require your name). All that is required for a Supporter is a login and a Cause name.

   • Supporters are not being asked to buy anything they don't already buy. FundraisingFish.com has partnered with Advertisers to apply a rebate to your Cause for each qualified purchase.

   • Causes can refer other Causes and this is an important way to generate funding when your Supporters are not actively purchasing.

   Regular reminders, flyers, and even putting a link to FundraisingFish.com on your Cause website will help make sure your Supporters are aware of the program.
