Make the State Raffle Work For You!
Posted at 3:14 PM on Wednesday, July 16, 2008 by The State Commander
Hi Comrades...
A suggestion on how to sell your raffle tickets:
Take a card table and two folding chairs to your local supermarket. Ask if you can set-up by the shopping carts, or somewhere close. Set up your table with the poster for the joint raffle. Then all you need to do is be like the greeter at Wal-Mart, and say "Hello", "Good Morning", or "Good Afternoon".
The public will ask you what you are selling. Explain that you are selling VFW Raffle Tickets. Tell them the Grand Prize is $20,000, and by purchasing a ticket or tickets they will be helping support your local Post, since half of the proceeds go to the local Post, the other half goes to the State VFW. None of it goes to National.
The public likes the idea of half of the money staying with the local VFW.
IT WORKS!
I collected over $600.00 this past weekend: 8 hours on Saturday and just 3 hours on Sunday. A good time to set-up on Sunday is when church services are getting out. A lot of people stop in the store after church.
See how successful you can be!!!!
Gary
