Goose, did you really just do this?

Goose, did you really just help 3 Michigan High School coaches automate their lift-a-thons? 

You betcha.

So, what did you charge them?

Nothing.

And you still made money?

Of course we did.

Here’s how it all went down:

Earlier this year, 3 Michigan HS football coaches reached out to me with a similar problem

They wanted to run a lift-a-thon, but they did NOT want to deal with the hassle of collecting pledges

I sensed an opportunity - perhaps Teamfi could build something to help these coaches automate the pledge collection process

So we did just that.

Zeth and I sprinted through March and April to build Teamfi’s next product - a 100% free lift-a-thon

We had no idea how well it would work when each of our coaches ran their lift-a-thons in May, but here’s how it turned out:

• Hartland Football > $21,394 Lift-a-Thon

• Reed City Football > $12,591 Lift-a-Thon 

• Reeths Puffer Football > $12,227 Lift-a-Thon

Across each of these 3 lift-a-thons, no papers were used, and the pledge collection process was completely automated.

And just as always, Teamfi took 0% of these fundraisers :)

That’s great Goose, but how the heck do you guys make money? 

Good question.

Like I said above, we absolutely made money helping these coaches out.

We just have a different business model than most fundraising companies.

Teamfi is 100% supported by optional tips from donors

When people go to pledge to a lift-a-thon on our platform, they have the option to tip Teamfi as well

They don’t have to tip, but many choose to … and we end up making money as a result

If you’d like to learn more about how our free lift-a-thon product works, check out our product overview

You can see what the product looks like…

Plus schedule a live demonstration of how to use it with yours truly :)

That's all for now guys! I appreciate your continued support of what we’re trying to do with Teamfi.

Free fundraising. For every team in the State.

That’s our mission. 

Love, Goose
