Download or read book 10 Fundraising Ideas and Strategies written by Alex Genadinik and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a relatively short, but very powerful book full of fundraising ideas and insights on how to raise money. Most entrepreneurs struggle when it comes to raising money. Over time I have accumulated different practical strategies for how to raise money for a business, and I explain all of them in this book. This book evolved out of my business coaching practice and my Problemio.com business apps I created. The apps have over 1,000,000 downloads across iOS and Android by entrepreneurs just like you. As entrepreneurs kept asking how to raise money for their business, I kept researching new ways to raise money. In this book, I compiled 10 great ways to raise money for almost any business or nonprofit organization. Not all the fundraising strategies outlined in this book will work for everyone. But many of the strategies should be very possible for most businesses. Additionally, this book goes beyond fundraising strategies. It also covers fundamentals of how much money you need to raise, and helps you understand the fundraising ecosystem, and what various strategies can mean for your business. HOW MUCH MONEY YOU NEED TO RAISE Before the book starts suggesting specific strategies, you must first understand how much money you need to raise for your business. The book explains how to calculate how much money you will need to raise so that you can structure your fundraising plans to reach your goals. STANDARD FUNDRAISING IDEAS First, I cover some common fundraising strategies like how to raise money by getting loans, grants, investments and donations. These four broad strategies are common, but most entrepreneurs don't know enough about how to get the most out of these strategies. Additionally, while people have been raising money by getting donations for a long time, there is a relatively new way to raise donations, and that is a method called crowdfunding. I explain crowdfunding strategies in the book, and give a number of tips for how to get the most out of it for your business, and what you can realistically expect. CREATIVE FUNDRAISING IDEAS Once you explore the standard ways to raise money, the book presents you with a number of creative fundraising strategies where you should use your creativity and resourcefulness to get the funds you need. I sincerely hope this collection of fundraising strategies helps you and I wish you the best of luck with your business. In addition to that, since it is difficult to raise money, the book also covers how to start your business cheaply so that you don't actually need to have as much cash to start your business as you think. For what kind of businesses can you raise money using the strategies in this fundraising book? With the fundraising strategies in this book, you can raise money for a restaurant or diner, coffee shop, barbershop, nightclub, local event, business selling t-shirts, most kinds of stores ranging from boutiques to grocery stores to jewlery shops, animal care or grooming, lawn care or landscaping businesses, moving businesses, gym, frozen yogurt or ice cream shop, a deli, liquor store or a sandwich shop, a beauty salon or a hair salon, a spa, a daycare business, a hardware store, commercial cleaning or residential cleaning, car wash, general contractor business, dog walking or pet sitting, martial arts studio, or a dance studio. Here is a list of potential online businesses for which you can raise money using the strategies in this fundraising book: blogging, affiliate marketing, elearning, create a channel on YouTube, become an author and sell books on Amazon and the Kindle, or become a freelancer or a local concierge.

Download or read book Kickstarter Launch Formula written by Salvador Briggman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-01-13 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're looking for a step-by-step launch framework for your upcoming Kickstarter or Indiegogo campaign, this is the handbook for you! I'll teach you how to use crowdfunding to raise money online and bring your project to life. You see, we're at the beginning of a movement as transformative as the industrial revolution. Never before in history have authors, musicians, artists, and film producers been able to connect with massive online audiences and get funding for their creative work. The outdated media gatekeepers are quickly disappearing. You can now get funding directly from your fans and distribute your content online. If you're a creative type, this is the BEST time to be alive. But, it doesn't stop there. This major change has also given rise to six and seven-figure online businesses. As a fellow entrepreneur, I know that one of the most common excuses for not quitting your job and launching that startup company is because you don't have the money. Now, in a few short weeks, you can have all of the capital you need to launch and grow a thriving ecommerce business. It's no longer a crazy idea to pursue your passion. In fact, more and more millennials are doing just that. I should know, I'm one of them! When I first started blogging about Kickstarter in 2012, I had no idea that crowdfunding would become a multi-billion-dollar industry. I was just a Junior in college, writing a mini-thesis on how different variables affected fundraising success on Kickstarter (for you nerds out there, it was a logistic regression). Flash forward several years, and I'm now one of the top experts in the crowdfunding industry. I started the blog, CrowdCrux, which did over one million views in 2015. I set up a forum called KickstarterForum, which has attracted over six thousand members. I even launched a popular podcast called Crowdfunding Demystified, which has racked up more than 100 positive reviews in iTunes. Finally, I also put out training videos on YouTube and I am proud to say that the channel is experiencing rapid growth. That all sounds impressive, but actually, when I first stumbled on the website, Kickstarter, I didn't have a clue how it worked. It seemed super confusing and I had SO MANY questions. Since 2012, I've come to master the platform and discover the ins and outs of how crowdfunding really works. I've published many of my findings online and I've been being linked to by sites like CNN, The New York Times, The Huffington Post, and even The Wall Street Journal. In this guide, I'm going to share with you the step-by-step launch strategy for absolutely crushing it on Kickstarter. In no time at all, you'll be raising money for your startup or creative project. I'll make it super easy to copy and implement these tactics and strategies. I'll also share some Jedi Mind Tricks that most marketers don't know about. Before you know it, you'll be a crowdfunding expert! Now, I bet you're thinking... "boy this all sounds like a lot of work. Do I really have to learn all of this? I just want to get funding for my project." Truth be told, it is A LOT to master, which is why having the right teacher can make all of the difference. I'll make sure that you master this material as quickly as possible, so that you can stop fundraising and get back to doing what you love! Either way, whether you decide to run your own Kickstarter campaign, or outsource certain aspects, it pays to know what you're doing. I want to help you smash your Kickstarter goal and then I hope you come on my podcast as a crowdfunding success story. It's time to get serious about making that business you've been dreaming about a reality. It's finally time to get paid for your creative work. Let's get started!
