+### Fundraising
+
+    - Don't aim for Low 100s, aim for 1000s
+    - Try to start local before you go national
+    - Find value of the items online
+    - Ask people to send an email that just confirms that they've supported your thing
+    - Receipts receipts receipts
+    - You have to break even with any event so don't spend above your means
+    - Start working on fundraising plans on the summer or early September
+    - Get a routine and regular events, like "We always have PyCon every Nov"
+
+### Sponsorships
+
+    - Try to stick to your guns
+    - You can use existing sponsorships to get special apps
+    - Consider establishing separate packages with different promotional tiers
+    - If you get items, get them sent to the C&S office
+    - You can take a picture of the receipt that comes with those items
+    - You can then show that reciept as income, even if the company didn't give you cold hard cash
+    - Follow other clubs and societies with what they do
+    - Ask that, if there are customs fees, can the other side cover it
+    - It's totally worth asking from international folks, but make a good offer
+    - Sponsorship proposal:
+        - Introduction
+        - Benefits to Sponsors
+        - What you can offer [Consider sponsorship packages]
+        - Call to action
+    - Income HAS to be 50% of expenditure or else you get your budget obliterated
+    - Create induvidual canva docs for each package [sounds like a pain]
+
+### Misc
+
+    - Consider using Canva Pro, but you need to pay 10/mo for it.
+    - Official PRO position: CANVA IS CRINGE. CANVA USERS GET EATEN.
+    - Book the insta takeover on ulwolves in <https://cp.ulwolves.ie/requests/facilities>
+    - Ulwolves page doesnt let you book insta takeover on weekend, but you should be allowed to do it
