The Top 6 reasons you should use Teamfi for your Team’s High School Sports Fundraiser
6 Reasons to Use Teamfi
1. Cost Effectiveness:
Teamfi offers the most cost effective fundraising method on the market which enables your team to keep 92% of each donation . Of the other 8%, 4% goes into running your fundraiser, and 4% goes to powering Teamfi. Compared to other fundraising options, you can save anywhere from 60-75% on fees by switching to Teamfi – check out how a Football Coach in Georgia did just that. We pride ourselves in delivering the most affordable fundraising option possible to coaches across the United States.
2. Ease of Use:
Teamfi is built from the ground up to be the easiest fundraising option possible for sports coaches everywhere. In just 3 simple steps (which take <10 minutes to complete), your fundraiser can be bringing in funds for your Team. In addition to ourhyper-simple platform, Teamfi also offers built-in, step-by-step onboarding for both coaches and players, ensuring that you and your players never get lost along the way.
On your first use of the product we’ll also give you a super-quick demo (<10 minutes) just to make sure you’re set up for success. All in all, at the most Teamfi will take just 15-20 minutes of your time from onboarding to having the check in your hand.
3. Maximized Fundraising Yield:
Teamfi is built on SMS (text-message) based outreaches. By building Teamfi on SMS and not email, it ensures that, not only are all texts getting delivered to the contacts of your players, but that they are much more likely to be read and opened as well – text messages have a 98% open rate compared to around just 20% for emails. By utilizing SMS-based outreaches, this means your fundraiser is being seen by more people, resulting in more dollars raised by your team.
4. You Have Total Control:
Unlike other fundraising options, you can run your fundraiser through Teamfi completely by yourself – no sales reps required. This means there are a total of zero meetings required to get started. Other than the 10 minute demo we’ll give you on your first use of Teamfi, you don't need us for anything. From your team’s branding and messaging to onboarding your players to pressing “activate”– you get to do absolutely everything on your time and terms.
5. Complete Transparency:
From start to finish, your dashboard will show you 10+ metrics and your team’s entire roster so that you can know exactly how your fundraiser is going. Our metrics are broken down into 3 categories: Projection Metrics, Duration Metrics, and Progress Metrics.
Projection Metrics: During onboarding (i.e. before you press “activate), we’ll give you a live projection so that you know exactly when to hit “activate” to raise your team’s goal amount.
Duration Metrics: after you hit “activate”, you’ll be able to track how many days your fundraiser has been live, how many texts have been sent, and when the next round of messages will go out.
Progress Metrics: While your fundraiser is live, you’ll see exactly how much you’ve raised, how many donations you’ve received, and your average donation amount.
6. Quick Turnaround:
From the time you press “activate”, you can have the funds from your fundraiser (92% of your total raise) in hand in just 14 days. We know that the sooner you receive your money the better, so we waste zero time getting you your check.
