Helping Non-Profits Think Outside the Box with Alternative Funding

Aren’t you tired of wrapping paper, candles, magazine and cookie dough fundraisers?

It’s time to think differently! Market America has launched a revolutionary program for qualified 501(c) organizations. A year-round fundraiser where supporters can not only support their cause, but also earn up to 35% cash back for their own purchases (and .5% cash back for those they referral as well)!

By simply adjusting online shopping habits and clicking differently could mean a significant revenue stream for non-profits.

All of us know non-profit organizations that need help. Churches, pet rescues, community groups, medical research funding, local PTA’s, etc. are all struggling with funding. With the current economic situation, resources are stretched to the max both –  time and money. Non-profits need creative solutions and must think outside the box. Market America, the ultimate online shopping destination has answered that call. Everyone is buying something. Why not leverage the purchases that are being made while simultaneously raising funds for your organization? Supporters shop at the stores they already know and love, they just do it by clicking differently. Simple and powerful!

If you know of an organization looking to raise funds with an innovative tool and a proven system, don’t keep this program a secret. It’s free, easy to implement and comes with me as your marketing program and customer manager. Working with you, I develop the marketing strategy you feel comfortable with. Do you send out newsletters, e-flyers, emails? Do you have tables set up at community events? Do you have a Facebook Fan page? A Twitter account? We can work to develop the tools and education necessary to make this program successful.

What if you let your supporters know that they can help by simply doing what they currently do? What if just by following the 80/20 rule that 20% of them actually shopped on your shopping portal regularly? Can you imagine the impact? What about your office supplies for the organization? Staples, OfficeMax, Wal-mart, Target, Home Depot, Pet Smart, 1-800 PetMeds and over 3,500 other stores are available. What about buying toilet paper, soap and other personal items and getting those delivered with free shipping? With every one doing a little bit it will easily add up to weekly and monthly royalties for the organization.
