PERSONAL FUNDRAISING / REFERRAL PAGES Each registered site User may create a Personal Fundraising or Referral Page depending on which is applicable to their organization.

Listed below is the creation and editing process of the PFP’s followed by screenshots of a Personal Referral Page created for Red Stampede to use as a business solution to recruit and automate customer payment and site deployment.

Each User may have multiple personal fundraising pages and may customize the title, description, and the amount of their personal fundraising goal.

By default, the site administrator creates a site wide template for all personal fundraising pages so if the User prefers not to edit or customize any editable section they may begin using their page immediately.

CREATING A PERSONAL FUNDRAISING PAGE

(PFP)

Personal Fundraising Pages are available to registered site Users only. If a site visitor attempts to access or create a fundraising page, they are redirected to a landing page as seen below requesting them to create their page which then activates the site registration process

Once registered, the User may take the following steps to create their personal fundraising page

Login to your Account Enter your email address and zip code in the appropriate box and click the Go button

Locate your "My Fundraising Page" widget in the middle column of the Member Dashboard which by default is the landing page when a User signs into the platform

Click the button labeled “Create my Fundraising Page or Edit My Fundraising Page”. This is your Personal Fundraising page, which is already populated with a suggested title, description, and goal for your convenience. You may edit any or all of these fields to personalize your page even more.

21



EDITING A PERSONAL FUNDRAISING PAGE (PFP)

Click the Edit Button from your fundraising dashboard

Users may use the defaulted content created by site Admins or edit their page with their own content. Users may edit the title, description, fundraising goal, whether to show or hide their progress, and select if they would like to create a “Money-bomb” for their page.

The Money-bomb feature is new and allows each User to create a fundraising campaign with a start and end date and time. The money-bomb is similar to normal PFP’s except it contains an auto-feed feature at the top of the page that lists the name, amount and location of anyone who has contributed through the page during the money-bomb campaign.

User’s may select the edit button at the bottom of the page to save any changes to their page

You will be redirected to your public page as

For the registered User, there will also be a link to View the Fundraising Dashboard and a link to edit the page, but these links are only visible to the User who has created the page

Each PFP has our Social Sharing tool embedded. User’s may share their PFP with their Facebook friends and twitter followers to promote their fundraising campaign.

Each time someone contributes to the User’s personal fundraising page, the platform will track their donation and apply it to the Users’ personal thermometer. With each new contribution received through the User’s personal fundraising page, their thermometer will rise along with the percentage of their personal fundraising goal so that everyone can see their success

PERSONAL REFERRAL PAGES Red Stampede as a company uses the platform for its own business operations. We have modified certain features and functions to

align with the specific needs and objectives of a small business as compared to a political campaign or nonprofit using the system.

Personal Referral pages may be created by any registered site on Red Stampede. Red Stampede’s strategy was to use these pages to

build company partners and also offer incentives to existing clients to help us recruit new customers to the platform.

Using the same set of tools that a political campaign or nonprofit would use, we have been able to successfully expand our ability to

reach and retain new customers by providing a tool to allow Users to retain customers and we in turn either provide them discounts or

referral fees.

The basic layout and functionality is very similar to that of PFP’s.

Each referral page contains the title and description of the personal referral with a personal referral thermometer to track the success

of each User.

Each User will also have a personal tagline to promote helping that specific User achieve their personal referral goal.

One main difference is the layout of the form is vertical instead of horizontal which allows for more information – like order forms,

customization requests, upgrades, design features, etc.

Create a Personal Referral page. Each page can be turned into a money/referral bomb at anytime which will auto scroll the users most recent donors to give through their page

We use this tool to encourage others to make referrals. You can earn money by creating your personal referral page with a single click. Try it here.

Customize your page or use one of the templates provided. You can change the title, description, and the goal amount of each fundraising page created.

View your public fundraising or referral page

Users can track and monitor their fundraising progress from their personal fundraising dashboards and receive automated alerts for each new donation received

Share your page to Facebook and Twitter

Embed a link into your email program like Outlook or Gmail, embed your personal fundraising thermometer and/or a link to your donation page in a website or blog.

Users can send emails to their friends on the website, contacts from any online email service, and/or contacts on any major social network asking them to make a donation to your organization through their fundraising page. Invite your contacts to buy a Red Stampede website through your page or embed it in a personal website or blog

Just like with PFP’s, each User has a link to View their Referral Dashboard and a link to edit the page, but these links are only visible to the User who has created the page

Each PRP has our Social Sharing tool embedded. User’s may share their PRP with their Facebook friends and twitter followers to promote their fundraising campaign.

We modify our progress tracking to reflect referrals – not money. Therefore, each time a new customer purchases a platform through a User’s page, they are credited with 1 referral which will show on their personal referral thermometer on their member and fundraising dashboards.

As shown to the right and on the following pages, the donation form is replaced with a shopping cart formatted form which will allow new customers to select a website package, indicate the names and information of site Admins, select a design package, select any product upgrades, and submit payment for their web platform and any other documentation needed before launch of the site.

How to use it and what it's for? By offering multiple methods of registration, your organization will remove potential barriers to user adoption and also allow your supporters to tailor their experience and specify their interactions with your organization. Our Social Signup module provides multiple registration methods allowing anyone to quickly and easily join your organization.

At the top of every page you will find the header menu bar which is one location where registered members may log in to the site and where visitors are able to create an account on your site. By default, visitors are only asked to submit their email address and zip code to sign up.

The email address serves as the site’s unique identifier for each account. Accounts are created using the email address and not other criteria such as name or mailing address.

The zip code field is required in order to propagate relevant information once the user has signed in. The system will automatically show and suggest certain actions based on the location of the user.

If a site visitor submits an email address that is already attributed to an existing account, the login pop up window will appear prompting the user to submit his password.

How to login to the website?

1. Enter the same email address you used to create your account. Hit GO.

2. Enter your password, select Remember Me, and click Log In.

3. If you forgot your password, click the “Forgot your Password” link.

ACTIVITY FEED The Activity Feed is a great tool to entice more user generated involvement and can also be a great way of showing your breadth of support. The Activity Feed is a real-time auto-scroll of every activity or action taken by anyone on the site

that increases speed with more activity.

A custom module that scrolls the most recent site activity

Feeds information from all registered site accounts including administrators and registered users
