Kickstart Your Fundraising
To help you get started we have created a step-by-step guide that will show you the ropes, and help you get started.
Follow along each day, and if you have any questions, sing out.
Day #1
Today is super simple, and it all about getting you set up for success. Here's what you need to do...
Setup your Profile for Success
Here is a super simple way to increase the performance of your campaign by up to 30%... add a profile picture. In this guide we will show you how to add a profile pic. Hint... it's super quick!
Buy your first ticket
Learn how it works, so you are ready to sell (and be in with a chance to win!)
Join Facebook Group
This is where the action happens, and where we will be providing interactive coaching support, along with videos, guides and other useful tools.
Day #2
Today is about getting a clear idea on what you are selling, and how this will work for the best outcome.
It's also important you get clear on your WHY and your STORY. As this is what will connect with others, and motivate them to support you. We'll help you today to craft a strong story that people can relate to, and you will feel confident in sharing.
This will become the centre of your raffle campaign.

Day #3 - Staying top of mind - with social media
Today, we'll dive into the world of promotional content and how it plays a crucial role in keeping your fundraising campaign top of mind.
Our goal is to ensure that people not only remember but also actively support your cause throughout the campaign.
Share your first social media post introducing your Bolsta Campaign
Today you will introduce your campaign and mission to your social media network. This will plant the seed for a non-spammy way to stay top of mind and gain raffle ticket sales.
This will set you up for a stronger chance of success, particularly once you learn the power of storytelling.
Watch the full Day 3 video to learn about the Power of Storytelling
Set a goal of how often you plan on posting OR use habit stacking to help you post regularly.
Aim to post 1 or 2 times a week to stay top of mind, with posts showing Determination, Dedication and the Ups & Downs on your journey. Finish it off with 'giving them the opportunity to support you' by asking if they want to buy any raffle tickets.
