Calling All FIRST Teams

[ebarker]

Rookies and veterans should study other teams and organizations to learn how successful operations work and how failure comes about.

Mentoring business plans to a team is certainly preferred rather than allowing teams to 'self discover'. They may as well 'self discover' chemistry and calculus.

I will be having a seminar at the Championship 2010 entitled "Donuts & Dollars: Creating a Financially Stable Organization".

It will not be a cookie cutter approach to fundraising but a little more complicated.

It is about helping the participants create effective strategies to help their community understand what they do, value what that do, and consequently the community provide more support to the team, financially and otherwise.

The conference seminar will be on youtube a couple of weeks after the event.

You should check out 27 Team RUSH's team manuel. It's a comprehensive model for running a team. From that you can write your own business plan specific to your own team's needs/wants/desires.
