Tips and tricks for Fundraising
Storytelling > make sense

- User Experience - Share with friends

Be succesful in Fundraising
Inspired by Crowdfunding
- Make donation tangible
- Be transparent
- Be a donor, be a hero > gamification
- loyalty > build rewards
- Make donation is cool > easy to spread with friends
- Be more concrete > build a house instead of «Save the world»
- Know your audience
- Know the tools > use them all
Don’t focus on one channel
print - digital - street - SEM
make interaction between them

Let us forget about «digital» as
being a new «discipline».
«Digital» is just a different way of
doing the same old things.

Tv is digital

Radio is digital

Print is digital

Posters are digital

POS is digital

Products are digital

today, everything has
a «digital» dimension.
and then again.... there is
nothing like «digital» for
the consumer.
there is nothing like «social
media» for the consumer.

Tell us about your life

youtube is about life

facebook is about life

gaming is about life

using mobiles or
technology is life

it is not so much about
adding a new channel, but
about explaining the
way everyone works and lives
today.
