Magazine fund raising is among the easiest ways to raise the necessary funds for your organization. You can use magazine fund raising especially during a holiday season in order to increase your profitability. We all know that magazines are among the things that people are prone to buy by themselves. So, a magazine that offers great gifts can be used for your fund raising cause. For instance, you can come up with great deals on the most popular magazines to each of your friends, families or neighbors. However, you should pay attention to some basic tips in order to make the best out of your future magazine fundraisers. First, when planning a magazine fundraiser, you should think about involving your local business too. The main reason why you should involve local businesses in your magazine fundraiser is that magazine readers can be easily found reading in the waiting rooms belonging to your local companies/businesses. You should use this captive audience of people for your fund raising benefits. Keep in mind that such an audience is always looking for quality magazines in order to make time more pleasant. So, you should consider supplying some of your local businesses with a wide range of magazine subscriptions in order for their customers and clients to be entertained and made curious about your fund raising group. Try to get into their offices really early in the morning and provide them with the information they need about your magazine fundraiser. Convince these people that they can make the difference for your fund raising cause and they can serve their clients and customers as well. Go and get some great deals on popular magazines. For instance, just a single office may order up to 100 subscriptions and transform your magazine fundraiser into a huge and genuine success. When planning to organize magazine fundraisers for your group, you must set your goals. If you are a good team leader, you will know how to focus just on the realistic goals. These goals should be high reaching ones and you should let your fund raising team know about what you are planning to get. For instance, tell them about the exact number of magazine subscriptions you need to have in order to raise the necessary funds. By doing this, you will make sure that each of your group members will have something valuable to aim for. There are so many people who are into reading magazines and a magazine fundraiser can come up with plenty of options when it comes to choosing particular magazines that can meet everyone’s personal taste. Make sure that you can follow up with your group members daily in order to encourage them and chart their real progress. Another thing you can do in order to maximize your profits is to add on another fundraiser that can make things even more interesting. For instance, you can go for a scratch card fundraiser in order to add extra profit for all the supporters who are interested to support your fund raising group but aren’t interested to purchase magazines. A cookie dough fundraiser can also be added to your magazine fundraiser and the only thing that you will have to do is to take some simple order forms when you approach every supporter in order to purchase a magazine.
