who is raising the $$$ ?

are we going to raise this $5 million internally?

if CHP were smart, he’d hire an outside firm to do this (market it)

we have to get Joe Q Public…we don’t do that very well

My understanding is that the Private 5 million he was talking about has already been half raised. the FSL’s should not be hard to sell…IMO. I would imagine that the AD will be working overtime…and need all the volunteers they can get. I know i will be volunteering.

I believe the $5 million is being raised by selling 5000 PSLs at $1000 apiece.

It’s actually the $25 million ā€œblack holeā€ that is the big issue.

my point is a major campaign like this needs to be sourced

thats no stab at our foundation…but this pledge campaign has to be done by PR pros (billboards, GOOD WEBSITE, tv commercials- [U]I’d like to see Mike Minter do a telethon[/U])

I believe Phil said that it will be done outside.

I think Judy and team will lead the FSL drive, but other donations will be outsourced.

Per the Business Journal…linked elsewhere on here.

$5 million is FSL’s

$15 million is the responsibility of the Athletic Foundation

$25 million is a mystery, right now as to its source. Maybe this is whats outsourced.

I doubt Phil would go ahead with this if he didnt have some kind of idea, or somethign already lined up for atleast half of that 25mill.

Oh, I agree. IMO, he wants everyone focused on the 1st $5 million before anything else is made public.

I think that the speed this $5 million is achieved is critical.

The faster the school can say they’ve sold them, the better it looks for everyone.
