Are you registered on line?

When you register your team on line you have a great opportunity to increase funds raised and share stories.  Personalizing your page helps encourage those you e-mail to donate.  How easy can it get?  E-mail is a great way to reach a large number of family and friends.  Relay For Life has provided us with all the letters and thank you's.  You can even track if your e-mail was read and if they looked at your site.

But have you sent an e-card?  At the top of the main page you will find Fundraising Ideas.  Listed in the drop down is Send an E-card.  You will see a variety of post cards to send to the same family and friends as follow up or even send to your team mates.  Remind them of events or even remind them to send out letters!  Again, can it get any easier?

Here is a testmony from a team that used the e-card:

From Kim, 2008 Team Captain

 Hey Bethany. I wanted to drop you a quick email and say "thank you" for the 
advice on sending out the postcard to my address book. I did it and I have 
already gotten 2 donation committments. Wow! Therefore this is proof that the 
emails do work. I actually wrote up my own little letter on Word, making it a 
little more personal, and attached it to the postcard. If there are other 
small teams like ours struggling to get donations then please forward this 
email to them so as to offer some encouragement. I am going to send a follow 
up email to those I sent the postcard to, probably next week.
