Growing community support through memberships has hopefully helped you take the edge off the expenses of being an organizer in your city.
But sometimes you have a sudden emergency, or a big upgrade you want to make, or just a lot of new attention that you want to make the most of. In those cases, passive fundraising doesn't cut it.
That's where our membership drive feature comes in - set a time period and fundraising goal, and inspire your audience to come together quickly in a movement to support you.
Membership drives default to annual memberships instead of monthly - so that you can receive the money immediately. You'll likely double your available membership cash flow.
Write in special text and add a unique video for the moment. For example: An End of Year membership drive, or about solving an emergency.
Add special gifts available only to members who sign up during your drive to make the most of the marketing push.
Or you can set it up quickly by using your existing profile - it can take as little as 1 minute to launch a membership drive.
Unlike the rest of Withfriends - membership drives are akin to crowdfunding tools like Kickstarter. We actually built this specific feature because we liked what Kickstarter was doing with a similar idea, called Drip (rip). Membership drives yield 4x more income on average per year than one-time donation based crowdfunding. And - because it's recurring, running a membership drive this year can sustain you for multiple years.
