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 The End of Fundraising written by Jason Saul and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-22 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does it cost nonprofits on average $20 to raise $100, while it costs companies only $4? Simply put: Nonprofits have no leverage. No one has to make a donation. And since most donors have no direct stake in the organizations they support, they make donations out of the goodness of their hearts. If donors feel like writing a check, they will. If they don't, they won't. The End of Fundraising turns fundraising on its head, teaching nonprofits how to stop begging for charity and start selling impact. For the first time, nonprofits have economic power. We live in a new era where consumers, businesses, investors, employees, and service providers attach real economic value to social outcomes. An era where yesterday's "feel good" issues—education, the environment, health care, the arts, and animal rights—now have direct economic consequences and opportunities. Nonprofits now have leverage. To use this leverage, nonprofits must learn how to "sell" their impact to a new set of stakeholders. Using his fifteen years of experience advising the world's leading nonprofits, foundations, and corporations, Jason Saul reveals the formula for how nonprofits transcend the paradigm of charitable fundraising and reach true financial sustainability. Specifically, this groundbreaking book offers nonprofit professionals a guide to Understand the role of social change in our economy Capture and communicate impact in simple, compelling terms Identify the new market stakeholders that value nonprofit outcomes Create powerful value propositions to increase leverage Improve the success of a nonprofit's pitches to funders The End of Fundraising includes the tools needed to effectively frame, market, and sell a nonprofit organization's impact, and contains step-by-step guidance for creating dynamic new opportunities with a variety of funders.
