The Long awaited second issue of QiC is finally here. I didn't have enough time to write anything with finals at school. But anyway here it is.

You can easily make anywhere from $10 - $30 or more per hour selling raffle tickets for your own foney charity. I will make it easy just like the last file by putting it into simple steps.

1. you maybe a few of your friends get together and think up what kind of charity you will be running (ex. environmental, helping the poor, etc.). The charity you pick should be one that you know a little about. Be original make up a club or charity name that is catchy and IS NOT being used by anyone else.
2. Go to your local library and do a little research on the type of charity you chose. You don't have to know every single detail, just enough that you sound convincing
   
3. Pick a location for your Club/Charity to be located. Pick a town that isn't close to you'r town but is still sort of close. If people ask where you are located just say "We are based out of Dullsville but we are going to have a group starting up in this area soon"
   
4. Design what your raffle ticket will look like. When you design your ticket it is helpfull to have a ticket from a real raffle to use as a guide. Just remember to always have:
• A. The name of your charity
• B. Your Prizes
• C. The date your raffle will be held (make it about 3 months from when you plan to start)
• D. That all winners will be contacted by phone
• E. The price (keep it at $2.00 or less)
5. Look in the phone book for printers and find out the cheepest price for the raffle tickets. Any printer will print these tickets for you, I've never had them ask any questions either, so if they start asking just take your bussiness elsewhere.
   
6. Drop off your ticket design off at the printers and wait about a week for the printers to finish the tickets.
   
7. After the tickets are done you should go to a place where there are a lot of people going in and out ( ex. Grocrey stores, Malls, etc.).
   

PROBLEMS YOU MAY RUN INTO ALONG THE WAY

1. If a store manager asks for a letter from the group, to show that you aren't foney, just go home and use either your laser or jet printer to print up a letterhead for your group and a letter to that store manager about your club/charity. The chances of this happening are very low, it's only happened to up one time.
2. If someone asks what your organization does, just use that resourch you did at the library and relate it to your community if you can.
   
3. If you see someone you know that isn't in on the scam, DO NOT tell them what you are doing there. If they want to buy a ticket sell it to them you can give them the money back and explain later, if you tell them there someone might overhear you and if that person calls the cops you will get busted.
   
4. If someone asks if your organization is legit, obviously you tell them that it is legit, along with it make up something about what your organization does, but relate it to your library research and your community.
   

TIPS TO BETTER SALES

1. Look your customer in the eye's
2. Walk towards the customer, don't just stand there leaning against the side of the building
   
3. Bring change for a 20, some people will purposely pull out a 20 in hopes that you don't have enough change, if you do have change they are sort of pressured into buying one from you.
   
4. Always have 2 or more pen's on you
   
5. Look respectable, if your clothes don't look clean or you just look like a punk, a skater, a drug addict, or a heavy metal guy you aren't going to sell many tickets. To sell tickets good you have to look like a Jock, trendy, or preppie guy.
   

OK. well thats about it for now. Watch for more QiC publications coming soon. And if you would like to become a distro sight or writer d/l our app and get back to us soon.
