You’ve got a great fundraiser. People are going to have an absolute blast. But they don’t seem to be buying your tickets.
Here are some of the reasons why that could be.
1. You’re Relying On Social Media Social media is great. You can sit at home and post stuff online. Done right you can get lots of people to click on, or to like what you post online.

Fundraising Comedy Hypnotist Show I do lots of fundraising. I love working with communities and groups of people who are trying to make a positive difference.
