Charity Organizations and Performance-Based CPA Affiliate Marketing

How Charity Groups and Organizations can compensate for a bad economy

No one can argue that raising money as a charity group can be challenging in today’s economic condition. With more and more people losing their jobs and finances becoming harder and harder to manage, charity groups are seeing a decline in donations.

So how do we combat this?

A solid solution for any charity group to offset their donation losses is performance-based CPA affiliate marketing. By using banner advertising on their web sites, sending advertising campaigns to their email lists or inserting advertising campaigns into their newsletters, charity groups can add a considerable increase to their monthly income to pay for expenses or donations. If your membership knows that you are suing these advertisements to offset slumping donations, they are more than likely to purchase goods or inquire about services to help.

Controlling ads that your membership sees

Unlike signing up with Google to place advertisements on your web site, you have full control over the advertisements your membership sees because you hand pick the marketing campaigns you want to run. There is a 100% control factor for you to ensure that your membership is only seeing what you want them to see!

Email marketing made easy

Most charity groups already have substantial email lists. Why not monetize it! If you are already sending out weekly or monthly newsletters, add a few related marketing campaigns that would appeal to the readers of the newsletter. You are still providing them the content they expect with the added bonus of earning potential from your readers.

If you do not send out newsletters, set up a schedule to send marketing campaigns to your email list; 2 or 3 campaigns a week is advisable. I would also advise sending out an introductory email to your email list informing them that due to economic conditions you plan to send periodic advertisements to help offset the declining donations. Once you have done this, use an email sending service such as Simply Cast which manages your list storage, automates and provides an opt-out mechanism and sends your email campaigns for a very reasonable cost.

Advertising in a performance-based CPA affiliate network as a charity

Another way to increase revenue is to run CPA marketing campaigns. If you are looking to raise money without sending advertisements to your email list or place banners on your site, there is another way; performance-based CPA marketing campaigns. If you want people to go to your web site and donate money, what better way than to sign up as an advertiser and work with your Sales Executive to setup a CPA advertising campaign that is right for you.
