Chuffed.org Crowdfunding Digital Copywriting Workshop - Canberra - Has Ended
DO Details
In August 2014, if you opened up your Facebook feed, there was one thing that no-one could escape. The Ice Bucket Challenge. $115M raised, 2.4 million videos created and one question on every fundraiser’s mind: “how do I create my own Ice Bucket Challenge?”
At Chuffed.org, we’ve spent the last four years running thousands of online fundraising campaigns in 27 countries around the world. We can distil down what the difference is between a crowdfunding campaign that succeeds and one that fails.
The answer: successful campaigns tell inspiring, specific stories.
About the workshop
This 3-hour intensive workshop drills down into a specific aspect of a campaign planning process- crafting the perfect pitch.
Here's the schedule:
2:00pm - Introductions and overview of the five key principles of crowdfunding.
3:00pm - Audience targeting: Learn how to use audience personas and other techniques to understand when, where and how to connect with your donors.
3:45pm - Event copy: Get everyone to share your campaign by crafting the perfect campaign pitch.
4:30pm - Campaign planning: build relationships with your audience with the perfect campaign strategy.
During the event, you’ll get the opportunity to pitch your idea and get feedback from your colleagues in the room. You’ll also get a chance to network with the other participants.
Following the workshop, all workshop participants who start a campaign will be provided with free one on one mentoring session and are invited to join our community of fundraisers for ongoing campaign support.
