PiggyBackr helps you raise more money for your team, project, or cause, by (1) teaching you how to fundraise and (2) motivating you to keep up the effort with points, badges, and levels.
We believe YOU have the power to fund your dreams
I’m going to spend the next 2 minutes going through our top
3 tips to fundraising online.
Our first top tip is to TELL YOUR STORY. People give from
the heart, not the head. Make it easy for people to connect to you and the
cause you care about. Pick a picture that features you, your team, or your
cause. When you write your “About” section, and make your video, share WHY the
cause matters to YOU, not just WHAT the cause is.
Our second top tip is to CREATE VALUE. At PiggyBackr we
believe you don’t have to sell stuff in order to get donations. You have plenty
of value to offer to your supporters without selling candy bars or giftwrap.
Want some examples?
Offer to send people who donate over $50 a hand made thank
you card,or run a lap around school in their honor. Plant a tree, volunteer, or
write a song for anyone who gives you over $500!
You’ll be surprised how these special gifts inspire more
people to donate, even more money.
Our third and final tip is to SHARE!!! Sharing your
fundraiser is the most important step
to fundraising online. While PiggyBackr makes it easy to create a beautiful personal
or team fundraising page, no one will visit your page, unless you share it with
them.
We recommend sending emails first. Why? Because it’s more
personal - people are much more likely to donate if they are personally asked,
rather than just seeing the fundraiser in their facebook or twitter feed.
You should send at least 40 emails. After you do this, then
remind people to give by posting updates, and sharing your fundraising page on
social media like facebook, twitter, and tumblr.
And there you have it. Our top 3 tip to fundraising online
in just 2 minutes.
