Fed up with sagging donations? Here's help ...

"Who Else Wants To Discover The Fastest, Cheapest Way To Unleash A Flood Of
Donations, Using My Proven System? But Hurry Now's The Time To Take Advantage
Of Our Low Introductory Rate"

From the desk of Uwe Matt
July 16th, 2010

Dear Fundraiser,

I've got good news. If your fundraising results have been something
less than dramatic, and the thought of the next fundraiser is driving
you up the wall, then this could be the most eye-opening letter you
will ever read.

You see, I have spent many months of long hours, late nights and
weekends collecting more than 150 of the jealously-guarded secrets
professional fundraisers use to create a flood of donations. I read
books. I interviewed experts. I hunted high and low for the best, most
up-to-date information. I've put what I learned into an ebook,
Stress-Free (& Profitable) Fundraising.

My purpose? To take the stress out of your fundraising, and make it
much more profitable at the same time.

I know what it's like trying to take time out from your crazy schedule
to raise funds. You pull your hair out trying to get ready. Or...you
dread the thought of having to come up with another direct mail letter.
And trying to corral volunteers? That's like trying to round up a herd
of stampeding cattle after a lightning strike. Nobody's available and
all you hear is excuses. A lot of the time, you end up doing most or
all of the work yourself.

Not to mention all the decisions you have to make. Do we sell the same
products we did last year? How do I replace (Judy or Jack) who used to
organize all of this for me, but who has moved to another city? Where
did I put that folder with the results from last year's fundraiser? And
on and on.

You run around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to keep
everybody motivated and making sure everything gets done right. And
what does it get you? Frazzled nerves and an Extra Strength Excedrin
headache. And not always the appreciation you deserve.

Introducing Stress-Free (And Profitable) Fundraising...

There's got to be another way. And there is. A simple solution. A
stress-free solution. A much more profitable solution: Stress-Free (And
Profitable) Fundraising.

Picture for a moment the way things could be: You use the notes from
your last fundraiser to correct past mistakes. You outline a new plan
and things go like clockwork. Volunteers happily perform their assigned
tasks, without all the in-fighting. Sure, glitches happen. They almost
always do. But you handle them smoothly. And thankfully, funds flow in
even better than you expected.

This can be YOUR next fundraising effort when you send for Stress-Free
(And Profitable) Fundraising.

What others have to say

Now...when I finished writing Stress-Free (And Profitable) Fundraising,
I thought I had a winner. But I wanted to make sure. So I sent copies
to experts. Here's some of what they had to say:

The "Everything You Need to Know About Fundraising but Didn't Know Whom
to Ask" e-book is fantastic. I am always looking for great fundraising
ideas for my Girl Scout Troop, and as a Girl Scout Leader this e-book
gave me fast, easy fundraising ideas so that we could do more troop
activities and donate more of our time and money to community service
activities and charities.

I also work for a non-profit preschool that counts on fundraisers as a
large source of income. This e-book not only gave me some great
fundraising ideas, but Chapter 8 on "Selling products to raise money"
has a long list of companies and their websites so you don't even have
to figure out where to go. It was all right there in front of me, I
just clicked and was taken directly to the fundraiser I wanted. I would
recommend the "Everything you need to know about fundraising..." e-book
to anyone looking to raise money for any group or cause.

Laurie Sanders

I also sent copies to various fundraising groups for their feedback:

"Stress Free and Profitable Fund Raising" was so helpful to me in my
work helping to raise funds for a humanitarian organization that helps
orphanages in Eastern Europe, as well as helping a local conservation
group. The structure is easy to understand, and although I've been
working as a fundraiser for quite some time, I found this book to be
very helpful for anyone from a first-time, beginning fundraiser to a
professional managing a huge capital fund.

The chapters are great for zeroing in on one topic, and I can see how I
could easily double my previous profits for fundraisers by using
techniques outlined I this e-Book. The chapter on the psychology of
money is especially fascinating; who would have known that there are
proven phrases that can help get people to donate MORE money? I will
definitely be using those phrases, and many of the strategies outlined
in "Stress Free and Profitable Fund Raising."

Melanie Zoltan

Thank you for this great book. We managed to raise $11,546 for our
orphanage within only 17 days!
