Give your visitors options to donate $10, $25, $50, $250

Don't pidgenhole them into $100 or nothing, lest they don't pledge at all and forget about it.:eek: This goes the same for Peter's next bomb as well. Remember, tens of thousands of people donated on Dec 16, and if they donate just $10 each, we could clean house.

Good point. We need the donations under $100, if not hardly anything would be raised.,

The $100 should be taken off.

Might as well say all we need is 108 married couples to max out and raise $500,000. People might have never realized that is all you need. 200 married couples giving their $4600 is a million dollars.

Nitpick: The max per person is higher than 2300 now. I think it's either 2400 or 2500. I forget which.

But I agree with the above. Given the nature of the people vs. the powerful theme on this, I think there need to be options of less than $100. Maybe not quite as low as $10. But at least as low as $20.

$2400 per election

I don't think it's necessary to have the option to pledge for donations under $100, but it would be nice to have some sort of disclaimer that donating any amount would be helpful. Perhaps a checkbox that says "I can't afford $100, but please remind me about the moneybomb and I'll donate what I can"

That wouldn't be too hard to implement with a normal email system, but I'm not sure how feedburner works.

A second email box could be added.

"If you can't donate $100, but would like to be reminded of this event for a smaller donation, please put your email here:"

Perfect. I think it's definitely worth testing out, you might get a lot of emails in there.

I'll get it up later this evening.

Got to go do real work now. :(

Talk to your friends and family who are most likely to donate in support of Liberty!
