Tips
The following tips may help you in running a successful TEAM PREPARED FUNDRAISING PROGRAMME Contact Us if you would like to discuss any aspect and to gain the most from an ongoing programme also.

| Tip |
Mailing, or mailbox drops, may give you a good return but there is nothing like 'face to face' to achieve the best results. | |
| Tip | Clearly and simply tell your prospective customer what you are trying to achieve, explain the benefits of the product and who is the recipient of the fundraising effort. Then don't forget to ask for an order in support of your cause. | |
| Tip | Having a demonstration unit markedly helps. There is nothing like getting a product into your prospective customers hands so they can easily see the benefits and value for quality. | |
| Tip |
Don't forget after you ask for an order to say 'Thank you'. |
