8. STRESS THE URGENCY OF YOUR APPEAL

One of the best things about the 5K business model (a business you start for $5,000 or less) is that it is tailored for people who want to be their own boss, live their lives on their own terms, enjoy their work thoroughly, and still make a tidy profit. Though the popular notion is that you want start a new business because you want to make pots of money, there are thousands of people who are motivated by the flexibilit
Since the P.S. is one part of your letter that you can be confident your donors will read, you need to write something there that will motivate donors to send you a gift or take your desired action.
A donor reading a P.S. is a donor looking for information. And that’s your opportunity. So don’t treat your postscript as an afterthought. Here are some ideas to get you started on finishing your letter.
1. SHOW WHAT A DONATION “BUYS”
“Remember, your gift of just $25.18 will provide a hot supper every day for a week. Please give today.”
2. MAKE YOUR DONOR MAD (AT THE PROBLEM YOU SOLVE)
“I’ve included a rather sad photo of a giant panda—a mother who’d been nursing her new baby—who was killed by poachers. Take a look. Then give some gift, of any amount, to stop tragic panda deaths and help save these harmless and wonderful animals. I am waiting to hear from you.”
3. MENTION YOUR FRONT-END PREMIUM
“By the way, the enclosed 2006 calendar is a gift of thanks for your support this year, and your continued support next year.”
4. MENTION YOUR DEADLINE
“We must have your responses to the enclosed National Survey in our hands within 10 days. Please complete and return it to us in the enclosed postpaid envelope provided. If you’d like to join the Rails to Trails Conservancy, simply mark the appropriate box on the Survey form and mail it with your check in the enclosed envelope.”
5. SUGGEST A LARGER GIFT
“Your last gift was $250. If you could match it again (or even increase it a little), I’d be mighty grateful to you.”
6. DRAW ATTENTION TO AN IMPORTANT ENCLOSURE
“I’ve included with this letter an article about our response to the recent gang violence. Your support right now is critical to our work in this campaign. Many thanks.”
7. INVITE YOUR DONOR TO TAKE ACTION
“If a loved one or friend of yours is addicted to drugs or alcohol, please call 123 456-7891. Because of your financial support, we’re here to offer advice, help and professional direction to those in need.”
8. STRESS THE URGENCY OF YOUR APPEAL

The most unusual franchise opportunity that I have come across specialises in cleaning mattresses! They have turned this business into an art form.

When buying a franchise there are lots of things to be considered. Some obvious, some not. When looking for your perfect franchise some of that perfection is going to be what they see in you just as much as what you see in them. When discussing franchise opportunities with others it is generally suggested that they keep the following things in mind.Your current financial position plays a major role in buying a fr
