They didn't want to text anyone
So they didn't... and they still raised more than $5,000
This fall, Monroe Saint Mary Catholic Central Volleyball came to me with a question.
Could they use Teamfi WITHOUT our automated texting feature?
I’d never been asked this before, so I had to ask why.
The response I got back was 2-part:
They wanted to force every team member to ‘do the work’ of manually sharing their page with friends & family
Some team members weren’t comfortable adding other people’s cell phone numbers
Their reasoning was incredibly sound.
And so was my answer:
Of course they could use Teamfi without our automated texting feature!
It’s actually super easy to do:
Create your team’s fundraising page (like normal)
Have every participant sign up & add a profile picture (again - like normal)
DO NOT have them add any contacts
Then, when ready, simply activate the fundraiser.
After that, every participant will gain access to their donation page share link, which can be manually shared wherever they’d like (pic below).
Every Teamfi participant gets access to their page’s share link after the fundraiser is activated
This worked incredibly well for SMCC - they raised $5,967, surpassing their goal of $5,000!

This isn’t the only time a Team has used our platform in a creative way
I wrote last week about a youth team who raised $6K through their creative display of their fundraising goal.
Check out what they did (and see how you can incorporate it into your campaign):
New Product: Still Loading
I told you last week that the first team to use our newest free fundraising product had started beta-testing.
Well teams #2 & 3 will start testing sometime next week.
Curious what it is?
I teased it the other day on Twitter.
I’ll share more soon 😉
That’s all for this week guys!
