Taking Control of The Bands Fundraiser at Your School

If you are right in the middle of planning the band’s fundraiser at your school, you’re probably here because you’re to the point where you are trying to figure out which band fundraiser you should be doing.

How on earth do you choose the band fundraiser that is right for your group?

There really isn’t a definitive correct way to do the fundraiser, and if you want to have a successful fundraising effort, all you have to to do is a little research about which type of bands fundraiser is going to work the best for your brand and what they want to achieve.

Consider the kinds of customers you expect your fundraising team to have. It’s possible you don’t know where exactly where the band’s fundraiser will be conducted, but you can get some idea from what has happened in the past.

Does the band tend to sell to their fellow students only, or do they branch out to friends, family, and the local community? The fundraiser can be a lot easier if you know what market you’re aiming for. Being familiar with that market can help you decide which fundraising programs will work best for the band’s fundraiser.

How much money do you need to make from the band’s fundraiser? This can affect what sorts of bands fundraiser you want to do. If you need to raise a significant amount of money, obviously something like lollipops wouldn’t work out that well, because you’d have to sell them for months on end to see any results

On the other hand, if your band’s fundraiser is just there to make a modest supplement to the budget, then lollipops could work for you. Some bands fundraiser activities are suited for larger efforts, and some for smaller. If you have a lot of people in your band, you could go all-out and do something like pretzels, which suit larger bands with more selling power.

Smaller bands, on the other hand, can maximize profits with a band’s fundraiser like scratch cards or discount cards.
