Resolution Number Three: Get Organized<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve snagged a bunch of new and enthusiastic new members, and kicked your fundraising game into high gear, there\u2019s only one thing left to do – organize it!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One of the biggest hurdles that small groups face is trying to wrangle all of the paperwork that comes with running the show. After all, you\u2019ve got membership forms to file, donor receipts to send out, and trips to the bank to deposit all of those dues (and hopefully donations). <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As you\u2019re sitting and staring at your newest mountain of paperwork (and let\u2019s be honest – you\u2019ve got enough on your plate between work and home, adding volunteer paperwork to it is just brutal!) keep in mind that there\u2019s another way! Collecting paperwork just means that – at some point – you\u2019ve got to enter it all into an electronic system, whether it\u2019s Excel or another database, at some point anyway. With Pay4SchoolStuff.com it\u2019s all in there – ready for you to run a report on it at the click of a button.<\/span><\/p>\n

And new members means more dues and donations – which is fantastic. Until you\u2019re the one responsible for carrying all of that cash to the bank. We\u2019ve made it easy – collect payments electronically (via debit or credit card) and we\u2019ll deposit the funds for you with automatic, secure, electronic delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

But perhaps one of the biggest benefits of Pay4SchoolStuff.com is our reporting systems. You can run reports on your membership (rosters and dues), orders, sign-up sheets, and anything else that you\u2019ve entered into the system. You can view them right within the console, or export them into an Excel file. No more manually keeping ledgers and records on paper. And by keeping your records electronically you can sort it automatically by any number of categories – parent\u2019s name, student\u2019s name, date, order item, amount, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n
