Membership drives
Double your annual revenue and get more cash-in-hand by running a membership-based fundraiser
Growing community support through memberships has hopefully helped you take the edge off the expenses of being an organizer in your city.
But sometimes you have a sudden emergency, or a big upgrade you want to make, or just a lot of new attention that you want to make the most of. In those cases, passive fundraising doesn't cut it.
That's where our membership drive feature comes in - set a time period and fundraising goal, and inspire your audience to come together quickly in a movement to support you.
-
Membership drives default to annual memberships instead of monthly - so that you can receive the money immediately. You'll likely double your available membership cash flow.
-
Write in special text and add a unique video for the moment. For example: An End of Year membership drive, or about solving an emergency.
-
Add special gifts available only to members who sign up during your drive to make the most of the marketing push.
-
Or you can set it up quickly by using your existing profile - it can take as little as 1 minute to launch a membership drive.
Unlike the rest of Withfriends - membership drives are akin to crowdfunding tools like Kickstarter. We actually built this specific feature because we liked what Kickstarter was doing with a similar idea, called Drip (rip). Membership drives yield 4x more income on average per year than one-time donation based crowdfunding. And - because it's recurring, running a membership drive this year can sustain you for multiple years.
