Make $1000 by Friday! Making Money Secret

The "secrets" are that there is no secret to making money. You must have the initiative to try and try and try again.

Here is a free tip to make $1000 by Friday:
  1. Sign up a free account with Cafepress
  2. Choose one item at Cafepress that you would buy if someone was fundraising.
  3. Pick a non-profit society that you are willing to donate some of your profits to. Maybe breast cancer, homeless people, etc.
  4. Go cruise the internet and search for some free emblem that you can use to place on your item at Cafepress., i.e., pink ribbon, a house, something that supports the non-profit you've chosen
  5. Design a snazzy printout with a copy of what you're selling to be distributed.
  6. Pass out at work and tell everyone you're trying to raise $1000 or $1500 and get people to sign up to purchase the item. Just like you would for your child's school fundraiser
  7. Collect money
  8. Place your order for the items and pay
  9. Take the profit and you must donate some to the non-profit because you said that you would
  10. The rest is yours.

I have done this many times, raising money for local non-profits. I never get greedy and always give the higher percentage to the non-profit. This way, they get to know you and trust you more. You can tweak the idea, but it will bring you some cash.
