First off decide what you are going to tell the people. Like I am on team—-. We have a chance to play in this tournament in Florida and we need to raise money to get there. We are selling Ad Space in the program and would like to know if you are interested in buying an ad to support our team. Tell them what the ad prices are and show them samples of the sizes. I would go to business’s that your family use like stores, restuarants, cafes etc. Please be cleaned up and neat and professional when you go in. If you go to an eating establishment do not go in during lunch or dinner hours-mid morning or mid afternoon is usually the best times. At stores ask to speak to the manager. Some chain stores have to get approval from higher management so it may take some time. Good Luck with the fundraising and your tournament.
