DO… send each and every benefactor your own personal message to THEM. If you just send a “copy and paste” message, you won’t come off as genuine, and you may come off as thinking THEY are not genuine people!
DO… ASK, not TELL a benefactor to donate! I’m sure your mother always told you… say PLEASE and THANK YOU!! Be polite, and it’ll go a long way!
DO… be yourself! A benefactor wants to help out (donate to) a friend, and not a one dimensional naughty picture of some stranger! (ok, maybe that’s not all THAT bad!) these men are human beings with REAL lives, and REAL bills to pay, not ATM machines!
DO… lighten the mood. I personally try and get to know a benefactor’s name, before I ask him for money!! I mean, donations are what every girl is trying to earn, but why not carry on a decent conversation before you ask?
DO… tell some jokes! Laughter really IS the best medicine! Have some FUN, don’t make them feel bad, or sorry for you!
DO… open yourself up a bit, and blog!! Show them that you are a PERSON, not a PRODUCT to purchase! Let the community of MFI know a little more about who you are as a woman!! Looks CAN BE sexy, but what REALLY makes the woman who she is, is even SEXIER!!
DO… remember your manners. Introduce yourself, hold a conversation to peak their interest in you, and remember to say THANK YOU for ANY donation amount!
And now for the DONT’S…
DON’T… demand a donation before you’ll ALLOW them to have a chat with you! For some, that works, but just try and remember that you joined this site for some HELP! You are NOT entitled to it!
DON’T… send a naughty picture before you even introduce yourself, and expect a donation in return! Let them ASK for it, and talk about the donation first! Send a message, and if they respond, then go from there.
DON’T… guilt the benefactors into donating to you! Try and make the benefactors WANT to donate to you, and not like they HAVE TO, or you’ll quit! Nobody likes a quitter, right?
DON’T… complain constantly about a benefactor not donating enough to you!! I’ll say it again… they are human beings with their own lives, and their own bills to pay! Donating to you is a BLESSING, and you should treat it as such!!
DON’T… forget to deliver what you and the benefactor agreed upon, if they’ve kept their end of the bargain, and donated! If you keep your promise, then said benefactor might donate to you more than just once!
DON’T… treat a benefactor by the amount they’ve donated! Sure, you might favor someone who has helped you greatly, but try not to ignore others who have helped you along the way through a smaller donation!
OK, I think that about covers the general idea! I’m sure there are many more, but just find what works for you, and RUN with it!! GOOD LUCK! :)
