Mentors Club Group Fundraiser

Hi Team,

This post is for those of you who are wanting to use Mentors Club as a fundraiser. If this is you... keep on reading : )

Ok.... so you have found a group/organization/foundation that you want to help raise more money. Now what?

First and foremost... You need to make sure you want to work with that group to help them raise money.... not because you want them in your downline to make you money.

If you do not care enough about the group that you are willing to help them with a fundraiser even if you do not make any money from it.... stop right there. To pursue a fundraiser with that group is going to be a waste of yours and the groups time. It must be about the groups bank account and not yours.

Second... You must be willing to work harder than the group to make the fundraiser a success. And you must be willing to spend some of your own money if need be. Again... it's about the group first. You reap what you sow. If you cheerfully give time, energy and money to help the group. You will sow time, energy & money back.

Third... You must have a lot of patience. Patience to get the fundraiser approved and started. Then even more patience to make the fundraiser successful.

These 3 steps are to personally qualify you as a fundraiser leader. So... if you meet these 3 qualifications, there is one more hurdle to clear...... The group you want to help... must want your help. If for some reason the group does not like you, mlm, Mentors Club etc... they will turn you down .

Yes....as weird as that sounds... I have seen groups who desperately need money, turn down fundraisers. Please don't kid yourself in thinking that just because you are more than willing to help them.. they are going to be excited to let you help them.

In order to increase your odds of not getting turned down... you must have a well planned approach to the group that will get them to take you and Mentors Club serious. (and hopefully like you too)

Now I can't help you with the first 3 personal qualifying steps. However, I can help you with how you approach a group. I can also help you follow up with your fundraiser once your group agrees to work with you. (notice I did not say work for you)

Keep an eye on your emails for information on a live training call I will be doing on Mentors Club fundraisers. On this call I will be announcing a special offer on how you and I can personally work together one on one.

Until then... get as much practice signing up individual members as you can. The better you are at signing up individual members... the more successful your group fundraiser will be. After all... your group fundraiser will be dependent upon you being able to sign up new individual Mentors Club members.
