Okay, you have your list and you’re ready to go. Yikes! What do you do now? Well, you have several choices:
1) E-cards – we have created some beautiful E-cards just for our NPO’s. We will be adding more all the time… Check them out by going to the E-card link in your Back Office, click on E-cards, and then click on NPO Marketing E-cards. We think you’ll love them as much as we do!
I would only use this method if you are contacting someone you know, or someone you have already spoken with on the phone. Otherwise, they are sometimes hesitant to open something from someone they don’t know.
2) Snail Mail Letter - You can also send them a letter in the mail. We call it our Snail Mail
3) Email - If you prefer a more direct approach than an E-card, we have created an email you
can send to the organization you want to approach. Click here to view and print it.
4) Phone Script – And, last but not least, we have created a Phone Script with accompanying
emails and tips that you can use for direct contact. Click here for your own copy.
We realize personalities are different. Some of you are very comfortable on the phone. Some of you can’t even imagine picking up that 10,000 lb. handle to make a call. Though we always encourage people to step outside their comfort zones and be willing to stretch themselves as they pursue success, we also realize we have to provide as many ways as possible for you to contact NPO’s. I believe you will find them here!
Read through everything. Look at all the E-cards and then keep coming back to see what has been added. Study the phone script and then use it as is, or adapt it for you.
The important thing is to just DO something. You want to know the NPO program, but if you know it inside out and then still don’t DO something, it will do you no good. Everyone is different; some will want to start with organizations you know. Some will want to start with organizations you don’t know and get more comfortable with it before you approach people you know. Neither is right or wrong. The only wrong thing is to do nothing.
There are hundreds of thousands of organizations in this country and the world desperate for funding. They NEED My Power Mall! You can be the vehicle for empowering them to fulfill their mission. While you might not be able to take every abandoned animal in your town into your house; you CAN help them generate funding to help every one! While you might not be able to go to Africa to feed starving children, you CAN help organizations generate funding to do that! The examples can go on and on…
The bottom line is that hundreds of billions of dollars are being spent online every year and that number is only going to climb. My Power Mall is in existence to channel a % of that money into organization’s pockets and into YOUR pocket. I’m glad you’re committed to helping us change the world!
