Please use this page to organise the various revenue streams for the space, and to suggest new ways of fundraising.
Membership Drive
What ways now we have a new space can we sell the benefits of membership to prospective members? Can some one make a flyer to hand out?
- have a space-warming-party
- make sure to invite lots of loosely-related mailing lists/interest groups
- make sure to mention the need for regular donations on invitation & during event
Workshops
Soldering workshop, either pay to attend, or charge for kits to solder, i.e. tv-be-gones or trippyRGB LEDs
Services
(Provided we have the tools.)
- e.g. laser etchings
For sale items
Have arduinos etc available to buy at a slight mark-up, this would be useful to sell at public nights.
Fundraiser Events
- identify people with lots of disposable cash and an interest in technology (e.g. former-bankers-turned-philanthropists, successful startup founders, )
- hold an even where we
- present the history of the space
- present some of the ongoing projects
- highlight what this space means for the local tech scene (esp in terms of teaching/socialising for younger people)
- highlight some of the things we would like funding for (hardware, tools, rent)
- provide a simple way to donate larger amounts of money, with some kind of public recognition if warranted/wanted
