The Sweet Sound of Success – Dueling Music and Fundraising

Make Money with Music

Picture this: a room filled with laughter, cheers, and the sweet sounds of music. That’s what happens when you mix Dueling Pianos and fundraising together. It’s like a match made in donation heaven. Dueling Pianos disarms everyone by getting your crowd singing along, interacting with the guests, and creating laughter with bits so the focus isn’t on having to ASK for money. It’s on having fun while money is being raised.

If you’ve ever been to a Dueling Piano show you will see that part of the allure is that “Duelers” can pretty much play ANYTHING. So throughout the night the audience makes requests that they send up to stage with money attached to get higher in the pecking order of their request being played sooner. Now imagine, all those request dollars are going to your charity. Your audience will be donating and not even feel a pinch.

And let’s not forget that hiring LIVE music shows your donors that you are really serious about the cause you support, and that is why you have put so much effort into finding a band and organizing a grand event. Not only will your guests have a blast, but incorporating music into your fundraising strategy can also create national awareness and make school fundraisers more fun. So let’s turn up the fun in fundraising and rock those donations!

A Rockin’ Lineup – Choosing the Right Entertainment

Alright, you’ve decided to add some music to your fundraising event, but now you’re faced with the daunting task of choosing the right entertainment. We get it, and we are here to solve that problem for you.

When it comes to picking the perfect performers, there are a few things to consider. 

  1. Think about your audience and the type of music or style they’ll enjoy. Whether it’s Dueling Pianos, a rock band, a jazz ensemble, or duo, make sure it aligns with their tastes. 
  2. Next, consider the vibe you want to create. Do you want guests dancing all night or enjoying a more relaxed atmosphere? 
  3. Lastly, don’t forget about the power of entertainment to create national awareness. Choose acts that will capture the attention of the masses and spread the word about your cause. So get ready to rock the stage with the perfect lineup and watch those donations pour in!

Dancing to Your Tune – Personalizing Your Event

Alright, it’s time to get your groove on and personalize your fundraising event! Whether it’s a big charity gala, or a small town high school fundraiser, adding some personal touches can make all the difference. 

Make Money with Music

Once you’ve chosen the entertainment that resonates with your diverse group of guests, don’t forget to decorate the venue, your social media, and even your print media to match the theme and vibe of the event.

 Get creative and think outside the box! We had a client once use our Dueling Pianos dressed up “Yellowstone” style and asked our piano players to rock nothing but nineties country music. It was held at a beautiful barn and raised money for a horse rescue in Wyoming. 

By personalizing your event, you’ll not only create a memorable experience for your guests, but you’ll also spread that national awareness as fast as Taylor Swift dating news. So let’s get the party started and dance to your tune!

The Encore – Appreciating Your Guests

So, the party’s over, the music or comedy has stopped, and your guests are starting to make their way home. But before they go, it’s time to show them some appreciation for their support and generosity. Get ready to give them the ultimate encore, the grand finale of gratitude! 

Thank your guests from the bottom of your heart for their contributions, whether big or small. And don’t forget to spread that national awareness by publicly recognizing their efforts. 

Give them a standing ovation, a virtual round of applause, or even a little dance to show how much you appreciate them. 

After all, they’re the true rock stars of the event!
