Recommended Campaign Strategies
Ask your community!
Invite local businesses to support the cause! Below is a great idea to involve wineries and breweries in your area. Modify to fit your neighborhood – consider asking local restaurants, pottery shops, any place that incorporates local musicians/bands to offer a special in honor of Give a Note. Do you know a home-party consultant? Present them with the opportunity to assist you in your fundraising efforts.
Invite wineries and breweries to run a drink special every Saturday and Sunday during the month of November or December while local musicians play at their venue. We suggest a special of $5. All first drink proceeds will go to the campaign. All drink revenue following will go to the venue.
Let’s say 100 people visit a winery/brewery each day. If only 50% purchase the drink special, you will still be able to bring in $500 per weekend per venue.
Resources you will need:
PPT Partnership Proposal and Campaign Overview
Script for Owner, Script for Participant, Script for Musician
Social Media Copy for Wineries and Breweries
Music Ed Matters Campaign Flyer
**You will need to provide balloons and flyers at event**
Appeal to their appetite!
Have a good old fashioned bake sale! Bake a variety of goodies and sell at your place of work, your child’s sports games, or at your place of worship. Who can resist a delectable treat?
