You might not be aware of this but, the prominence of Puerto Rican music is staggering; in 2018, 27 out of the top 100 most viewed YouTube videos were by Puerto Rican artists. Conversely, many non-profit organisations struggle for recognition, often due to limited financial resources. For Giving Tuesday, Ogilvy came up with a campaign called “Giving Tuesday: Giving Songs” and harnessed the global musical influence of Puerto Rico by using these widely watched music videos to appeal for donations. Imagine if social causes received the same visibility as these YouTube superstars. Keeping this in mind, Ogilvy requested renowned Puerto Rican artists to exhibit compassion in a simple way: by giving new significance to their hit song titles on YouTube. Throughout #GivingTuesday, when millions searched for their favourite music videos, these song titles transformed into public service announcements, informing fans about the cause they supported and encouraging them to donate at givingtuesday.org. #givingtuesday #notforprofits #charities #donations #influencermarketing #socialcause #youtube #ogilvy #amazingcampaigns #clevercampaigns #givingback #supportingcharities #marketing #digitalmarketing #videoadvertising

Don't Lose Money at your Charity Gala by Making These 3 Mistakes: The difference between a successful event and a disappointing one often hinges on the details. Remember, an irritated supporter is far from a generous one. Let's dive into three critical areas you need to nail to ensure your gala not only runs smoothly but also maximizes donations: 𝟭) 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸-𝗶𝗻/ 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸-𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 Picture two scenarios—one where attendees breeze through check-in, greeted by well-coordinated volunteers, and another where they're stuck in a snail-paced line. Which do you think fosters generosity? Overscheduling volunteers might seem excessive until you consider the alternative: a bottleneck entry can dampen spirits before the night even begins. 𝟮) 𝗘𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳 I've seen a huge line at the bar hold up an entire program. Also, it dampens the giving mood when folks have to wait a long time for a drink. 3) 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿. Muffled or inaudible announcements don't just irritate; they alienate. Whether it's understanding the cause, getting excited about a live auction, or simply following the evening's program, clear sound ensures your message resonates across the room, compelling guests to act. I don't recommend depending on your DJ or band for sound, they're experts at optimizing their music to sound good, not your voices. Hire an independent audio/visual person. These elements—efficient check-ins, sufficient bartending, and impeccable sound—are not mere details; they're the backbone of a gala that not only entertains but also achieves its fundraising goals. #charityfundraising #auctioneer #nonprofit #nonprofitevents

As a Charity Auctioneer why do I bring a tablet bigger than my head to fundraising events? 🤔 One of my top priorities is ensuring guests are excited and ready to bid! 🎯 That’s why I always bring my trusty tablet 📲 to every event. It’s a fantastic tool to show guests the auction items in advance. I make sure to arrive as soon as the guests do ⏰. Why? Because it’s crucial to meet and connect with them before the live auction kicks off! By using my tablet to walk them through the lots—complete with images and details—I can build anticipation and get them thinking about their favorite items long before they raise their paddles 🖐️. This personal touch goes a long way. Guests feel more engaged, and when the live auction begins, they’re already excited about the items they’ve seen up close. Whether it’s a dream holiday 🏖️ or a one-of-a-kind experience 🎁, getting them emotionally invested early is key to creating that bidding buzz. My approach is always to get in there, meet the guests, and use a tablet to show off the lots in advance. Trust me, it makes a big difference! 🙌💥 #CharityAuctioneer #Fundraising #Engagement #auctioneer #charityauction #charityevent
