For charitable organisations

raising money is often the process of persuading others. When you sell Raffle Tickets or Event Tickets for your fundraisers, you are selling yourself as much as you are selling your charity. It’s not enough to represent a worthwhile cause: your event must be appealing, and your organisation must appear worthy.

Consider how your group appears to others. When you approach a potential donor, are you well-dressed and well-groomed? Can you discuss your philosophy with accessibility and intelligence? In short, do you appear to be a good investment?

Of course, there are those who will buy Raffle Tickets simple for the sake of buying Raffle Tickets: because they covet the prizes, or because they are used to supporting your organisation. But you want to take advantage of all potential markets.

When you’ve gone to the bother of printing your own Raffle Tickets, be sure your sales crew looks as good as your print job. Create an aura of professionalism so that potential supporters who are unfamiliar with your work can easily believe in you and your cause. Remember: individuals donate to people as much as they donate to causes. Sell yourself as your sell your Raffle Tickets and you’ll reach a wider audience, leave a better impression, and come away with more money for your work.
