NEXT STEPS:
​

• Share the join link with your participants: www.fanangel.com/join/erhs-xc
  • Have participants create profiles and enter supporter emails. Here's a walk-through tutorial to join the fundraiser.
    • Make sure participants upload a photo!
    • You can use this Email Collection Form for participants to take home.
  • Here's a 1-minute video which shows your participants how to send text messages quickly and easily to potential donors with our new click-to-send feature: https://vimeo.com/854246757.
  • Here are our Participant Video Tutorials https://pages.fanangel.com/how-to-share to help with signups and copying old profile information.
• Film a team video. Use the attached basic script as a starting point, or get creative! We recommend filming horizontally if using a cell phone. Then upload to your campaign page.

Launch
You and I will communicate when the best time is based on your participation. Your participants can start creating their profiles now and entering email addresses - however, they will stay in "queue" as drafts until we send them out at once as a "bulk mass".

• Note: After launch, FanAngel's automation system will send supporters with emails up to three reminders: (one after 3 days, one after 10 days, and lastly 4 days prior to the end of the campaign). When the supporter has donated, they will not receive additional reminders.

Your main campaign page: www.fanangel.com/campaigns/erhs-xc
This is the link you can share for contributions to the whole program. This link should be used for your program's social media, newsletters, and website. Participants should NOT use this link to create profiles.
Okay, this should get your game plan in motion. I'm sure you'll have some questions, so please reach out!
​

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. Once your participant has created their profile, please enter email addresses and cell phone numbers into the queue; they will be sent at a later date once we get everyone entered.
2. FanAngel uses the industry's most secure privacy and protection standards. Email addresses and phone numbers are never shared or sold.
3. FanAngel’s automation system will send supporters up to three reminders after launch for emails and two reminders for texts.
4. When donors visit the page, they will see the participant's individual goal in a separate area of the team goal. Individual goals will initially show $250. Both individual and team goal will automatically increase up to 100% after the initial goal has been met. This staged goal has been shown to increase online fundraising results.
