What information…

…do you want on your raffle tickets? Shall we start with the image? Ticket design tells your patrons quite a bit. If your cause is one associated with a colored ribbon (e.g. pink for breast cancer, red for AIDS) a colored ribbon ticket is a great shorthand way to get your message across.

If you propose a cash raffle, an image with stacks of money is sure to get you noticed. Who can turn away from a pile of cash? Similarly, if you are raffling off a big ticket item such as a car or motorcycle, why not choose a matching design? Or, pick an image that represents your organization: a young athlete for youth sport, a gorgeous natural image for environmental causes.

Some raffle tickets let you upload a custom image, too. Decide whether you want your own logo there, or that of your major sponsor. If a recognizable personality is affiliated with your raffle, perhaps a head shot.

Make sure your group’s name is featured prominently at the top of the ticket, along with the name of the event, if your raffle is in conjunction with a larger affair. Advertise the prizes. If you have more prizes than you can write about on a ticket, be sure to mention that, too. You can write, “And many other fabulous prizes,” right on the ticket.

Of course, you need to mention the price of the raffle ticket.

You can start numbering your tickets any way you like, too. This helps prevent fraud and keeps you safe.

Once you work out these details, your tickets are printed and shipped to you. You can start selling right away!
