• Why are you launching this campaign? (This is perhaps the most important aspect, people want to know what your needs are, what is your story; they want to support you and your specific cause or need): Due to an unexpected medical emergency I have $10,000 in medical debt to repay.
• What service(s) and/or product(s) are you offering in exchange for support to achieve your goal? (What makes this uniquely you? What unique services, skills, and/or products can you provide?): As a professional massage therapist, I am offering professional massage therapy services at a discount in the hopes of selling enough to cover the medical debt. (This can also serve as a method to raise awareness and marketing of my professional massage therapy services).
• What are your immediate needs and goals?: $10,000
• What are your more long-term goals?: This is a one-time effort.
• In what ways are you taking accountability and initiative to achieve those goals?: I am offering my professional massage therapy services, at a discount. I am also honoring the debt, rather than trying to avoid it.
• In what ways do you need support?: $10,000 raised to pay off the medical debt.
• Total needed to raise: $10,000
• Income per service or product offered: $50 per 90 minute treatment.
• Total combined sales of service or products needed to achieve your long-term goal (total needed to raise divided by the income per service or product): 200 total massage therapy sessions sold will completely cover the medical debt.
• If you had to divide the above up into achievable phases, how many campaigns do you think it would take to reach your long-term goal?: This is a one-time effort.
• Let’s start with your most immediate needs and goals, and create a campaign specifically for that. What is your immediate financial need and goal?: Listed above.
• What services and or products are you offering, and at which price?: 90 minute massage therapy sessions for $50.
• What makes your services and or products uniquely you?: I am providing the massage therapy services. I have 10+ years experience.
• How many services or products do you need to sell to achieve the goals of this first campaign?: 200 or more.
• How soon do you hope to raise the funds for this first campaign?: By July 14th.
• After succeeding in this first campaign, consider what the next achievable phase would be (it might be simply repeating what you did before, and building momentum along with expanding upon your community of Social Network TM members that have already supported you): This is a one-time effort, but will consider repeating as a way to raise funds to support community projects and non-profits.
