Tips for Success:
Your organization’s
motivation makes or breaks this fundraiser!
-
Personally delivering flyers and
chatting about the event is by far the
best way to get people to come to your
day at
"The Oasis Southwest Grill".
Friends, family and volunteers are the
perfect resource for this type of event.
Encourage them to hand the flyers out at
work, meetings, etc….
-
Think about when to pass out your
flyers.
Distributing flyers to your supporters
1-2 weeks in advance is optimal. You
will receive an electronic version three
weeks in advance so you have enough time
to print and/or email.
-
Email is a great way to send out the
flyer cost effectively.
-
Include contact information in your
email, just in case any of your
recipients are unable to print the flyer
and would like to pick one up.
-
Please use the verbiage from the flyer
in any communications about the
fundraiser. It should be clear that the
event does not discount meals, it simply
raises funds for your group.
-
If you are a teacher/professor, offer
extra credit for dining at
"The Oasis Southwest Grill"
on your
select date. Be sure to
set a minimum spending amount to help
boost your sales. For example, you could
offer a few extra points to a student
who turns in a "The Oasis Southwest
Grill" receipt dated from the day of
your fundraiser date for a purchase of
$20 or more. Be creative!
-
Utilize any print materials you already
have,
stuff the flyers in the newsletters or
magazines already set to go out. If you
have the resources, utilize Public
Service Announcements on the radio. Be
sure to let listeners know how they can
get a flyer.Take advantage of any
opportunity to announce your fundraiser
to groups willing to support your cause
(i.e.: group sporting events, PTA
meetings, etc.).
Donation percentage and/or minimum sales
amount may vary by location.
