NETWORKING WAHM

A Networking Fundraiser is an event to help a nonprofit or charity organization.

I previously have taken part in a networking fundraiser and it was a wonderful event and worked well for all involved.  The goal in doing this type of event is many fold.  Everyone wins in some way.  The charity or nonprofit wins with increased revenues raised by the event.  You can donate or give a part of you earnings from the event to the charity or nonprofit. We each donated part of our earnings from the event, but you can set yours up how ever you like.

You win because your goal of networking with new customers and meeting new business contacts is achieved. You also win by meeting new people who may have never heard of your products or services before.  You are touching whole new market of people by having this one event.

To organize an event find a nonprofit group, suggest having one to them.  There are millions of  charities to choose from.  Find one near and dear to your heart.  Maybe someone in your family has an illness, start there you’ll be more vested in the success of the event.

We held ours in a local church for free.  The one which I was involved with had direct sales people, small businesses, and other non profits organizations.  I offered some products at a  greatly reduced price and the difference was given to the nonprofit, also.   We even held raffles at the event with the proceeds going to the nonprofit.  We offered some combination baskets with a mix of all of the vendors products.

Try it may help your business. Did  I mention the tax write off? I know you may really like that part as well.

Pick a charity or nonprofit and give it a try.
