10/10 Tracking & Personalization
Individual Leaderboards
Your group is made of standout individuals. Now, buyers can drop a specific name in the "Support" field at checkout! Whether it's a student, troop member, or athlete, every dollar gets credited directly to that individual's goal. It’s the ultimate high-vibration reward. We send you a report throughout your campaign to see how sales are adding up!
Evergreen Dropdowns
Running a massive school drive? We can set up a custom dropdown menu. Instead of typing a name, buyers simply select the exact program they want to support (Boys Soccer, Girls Soccer, Hockey, etc.). It makes year-round, evergreen fundraising completely effortless. We send you a report throughout your campaign to see how sales are adding up!
The Launchpad
Our team has curated your beautiful digital storefront. Now, let's build your audience. Data proves that campaigns communicated at least ten days in advance raise up to 59% more than unannounced launches.
Already launched and need a boost? No problem. Treat today as your fresh start to build brilliant momentum.
Host a Kickoff
Hosting a virtual or in-person kickoff event builds collective, saturated energy. Use this time to share your custom link and review this playbook together.
The "20/10 Rule"
Ask every volunteer to gather a minimum of twenty email addresses and ten phone numbers. You deserve better than relying purely on social media algorithms.
"Link in Bio"
Don't just paste a massive link in your Instagram bio! Create a clean, professional landing page. We highly recommend a free Buffer account.
Scripts That Spark Joy
You don't need to be a salesperson; you just need to share your passion! Shift the language from "Can you buy this?" to invite-based questions like, "Would you help support our cause?".
The "Ultimate Gift" Angle:
Frame this as a one-time purchase of sustained joy. For a one-time purchase of $50, the buyer receives a $180 value! Positioning this as the ultimate gift (like a Mother's Day gift that lasts all year) solves a core problem for them: never forgetting a holiday again.
Pro-Tip: The Link & The LinkedIn Goldmine
1. Embed Your Link: Do not forget to embed your unique fundraising link on your organization's main website, and always double-check that the link is included in every single social media post you write!
2. Leverage LinkedIn: LinkedIn is massively underutilized for fundraising! It is the absolute perfect place to share your campaign link. Explain why you are supporting this cause to your professional network—corporate sponsorships and local community support thrive here.

Hi [Name]! Our group is raising funds for [Cause]. We are offering 12-Month Flower Subscription Cards! For a one-time purchase of $50, you get $180 worth of fresh flowers throughout the year.

Handling Hesitation Gracefully:
If someone can't afford it, validate them and pivot smoothly:

Everything Your Buyers Need to Know
How much does the card cost and what is the value? ▼
The 12 Months of Flowers Subscription Card is a one-time purchase of $50, but it provides the buyer with $180 worth of fresh flowers throughout the year! Our group keeps $15 (30%) from every single card sold.
Is this purchase tax-deductible? ▼
No. Because the buyer is receiving a product of incredible value (flowers worth $180) in exchange for their payment, this is considered a purchase, not a charitable donation. However, $15 of their purchase still goes directly to support our group!
Why do I have to pay tax on the purchase? ▼
Sparks Florist® is required by state and local jurisdictions to collect applicable sales tax on this item.
How do buyers get their cards? ▼
Sparks Florist® will mail the physical Subscription Card directly to the purchaser within 10 business days. You (the group) do not need to deliver anything. Buyers can also pick it up at a Sparks Florist® location if they need it immediately.
Can I give the Subscription Card as a gift? ▼
Absolutely! These make brilliant gifts. The purchaser buys the card online, Sparks Florist® mails it to them, and they can gift it to a friend, neighbor, employee, or client.
What happens if I miss a month? ▼
This program is designed as a monthly ritual of joy! If you miss a month, that bouquet does not roll over to the next. Mark your calendar so you never miss your monthly treat.
