Flexible Online Fundraising

Spirit Ad fundraising from Sagepoint is a suite of customizable features that make it easy for anyone to raise money selling ad sponsorships. Depending on your goals and resources, Spirit Ad features can be used to:
            - Monetize Websites
            - Create Online Sponsorship Programs
            - Raise More from Existing Sponsor Programs and Fundraisers
            - Manage Passive Armchair Fundraisers

Spirit Ad sponsorships are a great way for community merchants, service providers, and sales representatives to promote their businesses and support their local groups or causes at the same time.

Monetize Websites

Does your school or group have a website?  If yes, add our Spirit Ad Banners to your pages and invite parents, businesses, and momprenuer product consultants to sign up as sponsors. Once you paste the Spirit Ad code to your site, everything is self-maintaining and updates automatically with new sponsor information. Don't worry about inappropriate material though, you get to approve all sponsor info before it gets displayed.

If your group doesn't have a website, there are tons of free do-it-yourself template-based sites available these days.  The examples above were created using tools and templates at Weebly.com and Webs.com.  Just type "Create a free website" into your search engine to find out more about these and other options.  We'll add a blog post with some recommendations soon as well.
Spirit Ad Sponsorship Campaigns
Sell Spirit Ad sponsorships once a year, quarterly or as needed.  For school, church, or community groups, annual Spirit Ad campaigns generally work well.  A sports team might sell seasonally whereas a summer program will want to sign up sponsors in late winter or spring.  Similarly, Spirit Message fundraisers for graduations, shows, competitions, or other special events can start several months before and continue through the day(s) of the event.  Set your ad prices accordingly.. 

Once a sponsorship is approved, the information can be displayed for as long as you want on your websites and on Sagepoint-based invitations, sign-ups sheets, schedules, and group pages.  Printable views enable easy distribution via flyers that can be handed out, posted on bulletin boards or placed in reception areas. (Scroll down for a sample flyer.)  Additional online benefits you can offer are described on the right.  Click below to see some examples:

Combination Event & Spirit Ad Fundraisers

Having a car wash or silent auction? Selling cookie dough door to door? Hold a Spirit Ad campaign beforehand and include handing out "Sponsor Flyers" during your event as a benefit.

Festivals, Fun Runs & Sponsored Events
For festivals, fun runs, tournaments, and other large events, combine traditional benefits like complimentary tickets, booth space, and signage options with online Spirit Ad benefits and set your price accordingly.  

If your existing sponsorship process runs like a well-oiled machine, offer Spirit Ad listings as a value-added option to earn more.  If your group is new to fundraising, short on manpower, or just wants to streamline processes, take advantage of our tools to simplify recruiting, recognition, and management and make life easier for everyone.

Passive Armchair Fundraising

For those seeking simple fundraisers that don't require members, kids, or parents to pound the pavement selling, check-writing and online donation campaigns have become increasingly popular.

And as an easy source of additional funds, set-up a Spirit Ad campaign and Spirit Ad page on your group website so that those members with businesses can list their business and support the group at the same time.
