THE BIG IDEA
The Fundraiser Isn't a Discount. It's How You Win New Customers.
Instead of paying to win strangers one at a time, you partner with schools, teams, churches, and nonprofits that already have an audience. They bring their people, you serve great food, and some of those guests become regulars.

CASE STUDY
How Longboards Books Fundraisers Every Month
Longboards Beach Fire Pizza · Nampa, Idaho
Longboards runs fundraiser nights with local schools, teams, and organizations. PowerUp Tech set up the offer (20% back on a fundraiser night), designed the ad creative, built the landing page, and notified the GM the moment a lead came in. By following up on those leads, Longboards booked fundraisers with a local art school of more than 1,000 students, several local soccer teams, and more.
“PowerUp Tech has helped us take a much more proactive approach to marketing at Longboards. They've helped us promote the restaurant, stay connected with our customers, and build a fundraiser program that brings local schools, teams, and organizations into the restaurant. We've seen real results from the campaigns, and I really appreciate having a team that is constantly bringing us new ideas and helping us execute them.”

- You have slow nights you'd like to fill.
