Has anyone done an online only fundraiser? How did you make out?
 
I did one a couple months ago for a college bowling team. The team had family all over the U.S. The show ended up being $700. I think it could have been bigger if it wasn't just after Christmas. We are going to do it again over the summer.
 
Yes, I have done an online only fundraiser before and it was quite successful. We used social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to spread the word about our fundraiser and to reach a larger audience. We also utilized email marketing to reach out to our existing supporters and ask for their help in promoting the fundraiser.In addition, we created a dedicated webpage for the fundraiser where people could easily make donations and learn more about our cause. We also offered incentives for people to donate, such as a chance to win a prize or a shoutout on our social media pages.Overall, our online only fundraiser was a success and we were able to reach our fundraising goal. We found that it was a great way to engage with our supporters and reach a wider audience, as well as being a cost-effective and convenient way to fundraise.
