Building up Fundraiser Attendance

[kitchenqueen]

OKay ladies - I am suffering from a bad case of writer's block I guess you can say. I am trying to put together a flyer for a fundraiser I am doing in the middle of this month. We've figured out ways to get people to host fundraiser's but how can I convince people to come . I am giving away a free large round stone to the person who turns in the most in outside orders by the 1st of Nov, and ofcourse the bring a friend get a gift, and I also have a few games I plan on playing to break the ice. This flyer is serving as an info/reminder. Then I am sending out invitations THEN making reminder calls 2-3 days before. What else can I add in the flyer to get people to come?? This organization is really depending on me and I am starting to feel the pressure. ANY advice is greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!!!

Wow, it sounds like you have some great ideas! What do you usually give for bring a friend? Are you doing one big kitchen show demonstration, a few kitchen shows in a week to go towards the same fundraisers, catalog sales?

Look in the files section of this board (scroll down) there are many flyers you can get ideas from. My 1st is going on now, it's a mini-catalog, website and outside order collector - - I would love to spice it up by doing a kitchen show or two to earn towards it. I am offering an additional 5% of my commission towards this group plus $3 matching bookings. It's a preschool both of my kids went to so I want to give back.

Keep us posted!
