A step-by-step fundraising guide ----------------------------------------------------------- (This is first article of a multi-part series on this topic)
Part One of this SPECIAL REPORT is about:
Organizing Your Group
Would you agree that it's easier complete a job when you have a blueprint to follow? Yes?
Also, exact opposite maybe true which brings us to old axiom:
"Fail to plan, plan to fail"
Usually most groups avoid planning because they view it as difficult or tedious or may be in a rush to get going. Don't let this happen!! What appears to be unpleasant far exceeds dismal results you will have without a plan.
Fortunately, exact opposite is true when you have necessary tools at your disposal.
That is why this report was written. To give you an idea of how easy it is to plan your fundraiser and to stay focused on your goals.
Shall we begin?
