Launching Your First Campaign

Learn how to create and launch your first fundraising campaign on Raised.

Starting Your Campaign Creation

To begin creating a new campaign, navigate to your Raised Dashboard and click the "Create Campaign" button, usually found in the bottom left. This will open a popup prompting you to select the type of campaign you want to create.

Before creating a campaign, ensure your account profile (Organisation or Wholesaler) is as complete as possible. This helps build trust and provides necessary information for your campaigns.

Choosing Your Campaign Type

The "Create a Campaign" popup will present you with two primary options to fit your needs:

Partner with Wholesalers

Leverage our network of trusted product suppliers.

• Access a curated catalog of popular fundraising products
• Simplified logistics with direct shipping from suppliers

-- or --

Self-Hosted Campaign

Create and manage your own campaign from start to finish.

Select this option to sell items your organisation creates (e.g., baked goods, team merchandise) or sources from your own chosen suppliers (like a local bakery). You'll have full control over your products, pricing, inventory, and order fulfillment.

Once you select an option, you will be guided through the respective campaign builder to set up all the necessary details for your fundraiser.

4. Preview and Test

Before launching, preview your campaign and test the donation process:

• Preview your campaign on different devices
• Test the donation flow with a small amount
• Check all links and media are working

5. Launch and Promote

Once everything is ready, it's time to launch and promote your campaign:

• Share on social media platforms
• Email your supporters and network
• Consider a launch event or announcement
