Hi all,
I placed a post the other day asking for some advice in regards to taking up a volunteer stint in marketing.
What i'm actually doing at the moment is contacting businesses to get a donation of prizes for the raffle that is being held. I have contacted major retails and then thought better of it and have started contacting local businesses, but my response rate is extremely low, typically 1%. This festival is to be held in one months time and I firmly believe that i just don't have the adequate time to fullfill this task. But is there anything anybody could suggest me doing differently? Should I maybe start calling into businesses rather than e-mails? Thanks.
