Tips for a successful fundraising Event - (Establishing and Realising your Financial Goal)

There are 5 key areas to address when planning casino night fundraisers.

1. Goal - Decide on how much money you would like to make from the event, and keep it realistic.

2. Revenue - Maximise your revenue earning potential by ensuring each of the following areas is covered off: ticket sales, table sponsorship, food & drink sales, auctions and additional 'buy-in' purchases.

3. Expenses - Try to keep these to a minimum and typically include: facility costs, decorations/props, equipment rental & dealers, food & beverage costs, insurance, security, clean-up.

4. Determine ticket price - This can be done be estimating your nett profit, deducting expenses and then dividing by the expected number of guests/tickets sold.

5. "It will be all right on the night if..." - here are some things to know before the event.

• set up early at the facility
• have change available at the 'cash desk'
• have additional 'buy-in' and drink tickets at the cash desk
• have a public address system on hand to announce prizes etc.
• have sponsor signs in place on all tables
• number tables
• post signs prominently indicating chip denominations
• post information about buying more 'buy-in'
• clearly indicate location of cash desk
• have change or drink tickets available at the bar/s
• designate all tasks ahead of time
• keep thorough notes for your next event - the second time is always easier
