RafflesNow makes raffling easy, but there are always ways to step up your game and have a more profitable fundraiser. Follow these tips to see your cash prize grow:

Provide a group name and photo along with a short description of your charity to highlight who and what you are to new potential donors.

3. Give your raffle a wide window for the “Start” and “End” dates
Your raffle doesn’t have to take place strictly during an event like a soccer game or a 5k run. Start your raffle early so tickets can be sold leading up to the event, this way the cash prize will grow larger and both parties will receive more.

4. Spread the word early and often
Press the “Share” button to tell friends and family about your raffle. Post to social media, send out email blasts, text and post on your blog to ensure you reach a broader audience. Encourage your community to share as well because the more they share, the bigger the pot size for them too!
Also, utilize QR codes at your event. Post the QR code at sign-in, on the table with your silent auction, at the bar, on the bathroom doors, wherever really!
5. Follow your raffle
