12: Assemble a team of friends and family members who are known to have a large social group. We will call this team your “Amplification Team”.
13: The amplification team has two goals: help amplify exposure for your cause and to gain other recruits along the way to help amplify your cause further. Try to get 5, 10 or 20 friends who actively use Facebook, LinkedIn and email.
14: Once you have your team, let them know the team’s goals. There will be two specific goals. As we mentioned before make it clear to them their goal is to share your cause and to get others to share as well.
15: We want to leverage their social outreach to spread awareness on Facebook and LinkedIn. Social networks are a great place to start fundraising. This can take place on personal social networks or work relates networks such as LinkedIn.
16: We want to leverage their email contacts for the initial launch of the fundraising page.
17: Remember, your team should consist of people who you know that already have a preexisting large network of friends.
18: This could be your big sister who is in college.
19:This could be your dad and his network of colleagues.
20: This could be your mom and her friends in the neighborhood.
21: This could be your three best friends who constantly spend all their time organizing social events.
22: Setting expectations within the team will be important because their continual activity will be required as the weeks progress. In this case, be sure to remind them that it will not take a lot of time, but it will take small moments of dedicated time.
