How to Prepare for a Successful Fundraising Event

A successful fundraising event takes effort.  With that being said, what are you doing now to generate interest in your fundraiser?  Have you thought about what you’ll sell?  Are custom challenge coins something you’ve been considering?  If so, we’d like to help you! Custom challenge coins are among the most attractive and versatile items available.  Created from your choice of metals and in the size, shape, and style that best meets your needs, our products are exceptional pieces of art.  They’re crafted from fine quality materials with a great deal of care so that their intricate designs shine through.  A look at our online gallery can help you determine what makes a stand out fundraising challenge coin design. Here are some suggestions that will help make your next fundraising event successful:

1. Prepare for your event month in advance. Contact Challenge Coins Plus with your request right away and we can have your coins to you just as soon as you approve the design and the items are manufactured.  Order packages at this time as well so the coins will be ready to sell at your fundraiser.
2. Find some sponsors willing to help you. Include the area businesses that provide sponsorship on the coins that you create.  This is a great way to foster long lasting relationships in your community and secure assistance for future fundraising events.
3. Promote, promote, promote. Set up an event page where people can go for information.  Make sure to add a photo of your fundraising coin on your website.  Let people know that it is available for sale and how much it costs.
4. Send out invitations well in advance. Set up reminders because people are often busy and sometimes forget.  Email updates to the people who sign up for your mailing list online.
5. Sell your coins. Make the reason for your fundraiser clear.  Inform the public what all monies raised will do for your community.  Set aside coins for people who cannot make it to your event but still want to pitch in by donating.
