"How to Start a Fun, Rewarding and Profitable Special Event Letters to Children Business in Your Area"


It should come as no surprise that children love to receive mail. Even in this age of instant communication via email, cell phones and text messaging the thrill a child gets from receiving an honest-togoodness personal letter addressed to them in the mail is hard to beat.


Now, you can provide children in your area with that same excitement, anticipation and the absolute thrill of discovering a personalized letter addressed to them and written about them in their mailbox.


In this report I am going to give you the details of a specific plan of action for starting a Special Event Letters to Children Business in Your Area as a possible alternative in case you were busy with job search. As a side benefit of this plan you will also be helping nonprofit organizations in your community raise desperately needed funds.


Very simple, what you will be doing is working with a non-profit organization to hold a fund raising event where you will sell a Special Holiday Letter to Children. Proceeds collected will be given to the non-profit organization. After the event you can then follow up with the parents and offer them your complete Special Event Letters to Children package for an additional fee.


There are several holidays that lend themselves to fund raising events including: Christmas ( Letter from Santa), Easter ( Letter from the Easter Bunny), Valentines Day ( Letter from Cupid), Halloween ( Letter from the Great Pumpkin) and Independence Day ( Letter from Uncle Sam.) You can organize fund raising events throughout the year and maintain a steady flow of fresh customers.


Let me give you an outline of the plan and then I will go into the specific steps in more detail:


1) Locate a Non-Profit Organization you would like to work with to raise funds.
2) Pitch your event to the non-profit organization.
3) Find a suitable high traffic Location to set up Your Fund Raising Event.
4) Get everything ready to set up your event.
5) Notify the local media about your event.
6) Hold the event.
7) Follow through and follow up.


Locate a Non-Profit Organization you would like to work with to raise funds.


Helping a non-profit organization gives you the benefit of tying your product to their organization. It gives you instant credibility in the eyes of the donors (customers) and also gives you an inroad when dealing with media outlets and merchants who will allow you to use their location for the fundraiser. The best type of organization to work with is a locally based children's charity. It is much easier to deal with a local charity then it is to deal with a local branch of a national charity and local charities are always in desperate need of cash.


You should be able to find a local children's charity in your Yellow Pages. Check under the headings: Social Service Organizations, Human Services Organizations and Charitable Organizations. If you can't locate one call your local United Way office. They can point you in the right direction.
