Remarkable Quotes
Rebecca: We help charities and nonprofits with everything from ticketing, donations, silent and live auctions, raffles or fifty fifties, and even live streaming events. Travis: The nonprofit world is wide, varied, and diverse. Rebecca: The world has changed. We're looking for ways we can bring those fund-raising elements online. Rebecca: We’ve got these opportunities to engage our donors like we never have before. Travis: It is better to not have friction in the first place. Rebecca: Make sure that both your audiences are engaged. Rebecca: Unlike our live stream audience that we talked about with the prior events, this isn't just a camera at the back of the room.
