WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT
TO CONFIRM OUR EVENT (ROOTS) QUICKLY?
The extraordinary
success of our time honored 10 year 850 event program which has made our
reputation known worldwide (https://jazzforpeace.org/primemo.pdf)
is based on confirming the event in advance.
Here is why:
1. We can now obtain a
venue because we have a confirmed event to offer the venue our assurances,
guarantees, and our word and reputation that this event is of the same
professional standards as our 850 previous events.
2. We can now
obtain sponsors for you because we have a confirmed event to offer the sponsors
our assurances, guarantees, and our word and reputation that this event is
of the same professional standards as our 850 previous events
3. We can now
obtain prestigious and celebrity supporters for your organization (https://jazzforpeace.org/primemo.pdf and www.jazzforpeace.org/senlet) because we
now have a confirmed event to offer these dignitaries our assurances,
guarantees, and our word and reputation that this event is of the same
professional standards as our 850 previous events.
4. We can now
obtain proper media support, publicity and awareness for your organization (https://jazzforpeace.org/publicity) because
we have a confirmed event to offer these our assurances, guarantees, and our
word and reputation that this event is of the same professional standards
as our 850 previous events.
5. We can now
sell full price general admission tickets and full price VIP tickets to the
general public as well as implement all of our other tried and true techniques
that we use to raise maximum funds for your organization ( https://jazzforpeace.org/ega3.html) because
we have a confirmed event to offer the public and dignitaries our assurances,
guarantees, and our word and reputation that this event is of the same
professional standards as our 850 previous events.
6. We can now promote
a confirmed event on our web site and apply our fundraising secrets of our
success to a confirmed event that has our assurances, guarantees, and our
word and reputation that this event is of the same professional standards
as our 850 previous events.
7. We can now obtain
proper assurances from the performers and make all other travel arrangements,
lodging, per diem, ground transportation, visas etc. for the performers.
8. We can now ask Rick
DellaRatta to commit to perform at an event that is
professionally organized and confirmed.
9. We can now get our
Board to release all of the funds necessary for our staff to work tirelessly to
grow your empowerment tree, and make all of the flight and other scheduling
arrangements listed above.
10. We can now ask our
professional staff of proven and experienced event coordinators to keep their
standards the same as our 850 previous events with hope that they may even
exceed those standards for your event.
While
our Board doesn't allow us to promote or in any way put our prestigious
reputation on the line for an event that is still in the planning stages, they
do give us full authority to build all of the components of our Empowerment
Tree at full speed for our confirmed events while at the same time take
advantage of every opportunity that comes our way no matter how far in advance
they may be of the event date as the examples above so appropriately reflect.
Please ask your
supporters to review this information below along with our empowerment tree at www.jazzforpeace.org/tree and
let me know if you have any questions about our successful formula and
commitment to follow our time honored guidelines to make this historic day for
your organization one of our greatest events ever!
WHY
DO THE BUSIEST ORGANIZATIOBS ALWAYS CONFIRM THEIR EVENT THE EARLIEST?
Answer: Because they need us
to be working for them the most.
Organizations that are
swamped with deadlines, behind schedule, understaffed or otherwise overwhelmed
for a variety of reasons will take full advantage of the opportunity to have
our Jazz for Peace staff work longer and harder for them to build their
Empowerment Tree simply by confirming their event as early in the process as
possible by forming a VIP Invite Committee as outlined at this link: https://jazzforpeace.org/vipdetails
With the help of our
experienced staff, this important step can be completed easily to especially
aide and assist the busiest organizations who need our help the most. Please
contact our Grant Administrator if you are one of those very busy and/or overwhelmed
organizations so we can assist you with this helpful step.
