Hi Everyone,
Just thought I'd come on and introduce myself. Im Ant, I'm the the clubs new Lottery Manager and have been brought here to really push Club 1873 and drive more revenue in to the clubs youth development programme so we can keep up the good work they're already doing.
I can't do it on my own though, and this is why I came on here to appeal for your support. Some of you may already be in Club 1873 but for those of you that aren't I'll give you a brief outline of how it works and how you can join. It was setup exactly 2 years ago this week and originally a massive 1,000 of you signed up. For a £2 a week stake you get to pick 4 numbers between 1 and 31 and this is normally payable by standing order straight from your bank. You can download a standing order form here:
www.wakefieldwildcats.co.uk/memb ... 1311760798 We do the draw on a Friday and the jackpot winner receives £250 for matching all 4 numbers.
I've come here with a lot of ideas that haven't been tried yet. The biggest idea is us introducing door-to-door cash collection rounds. This is where we have dedicated supporters spare a couple of hours during a week to walk around a specific area where a number of Club 1873 members will already be waiting for you with their £2 a week. I do all the 'cold calling' before hand, so there is no selling for you to do!
In return, supporters will receive between 10% and 20% in expenses for their time and also receive
A FREE SEASON TICKET if you collect 50 or more each week. Collectors don’t necessarily have to be supporters, it can be anyone who just wants to earn a little bit of extra cash in the evenings. Anyone who is interested in the first instance, make yourself known by replying to this message. Let’s show everyone how well this can work! If you could then send me a quick email with your details on to
lottery@wakefieldwildcats.co.uk and I'll give you a quick ring back.
Similar to how the clubs twitter and facebook pages work, I'll do my best to answer any questions you have on here regarding Club 1873.
Finally, If you have any ideas you want to share with me please get in touch. I think it's critical that we listen to what our supporters want to really push Club 1873.
Cheers
Ant Summers
