Best Practices

Use a Variety of Forms

When it comes to forms, it's best practice to create and use them in a variety of ways to fully maximize the powerful Form Builder tool and enhance your brand and reputation as a company that cares.

• Consider building an impact follow-up form (or using the template we provide) to ask charities you’ve supported about the impact your funding or sponsorship has had on their organization.
  
  
• Or a spotlight form to send to your customers, employees, or community partners. Spotlights are a great way to celebrate or recognize the accomplishments of others, which leads to strengthened business relationships.
  
  
• And keep in mind, the possibilities for creating and using forms are endless! Think of your business needs and how sending out a form, and auto-creating stories with the responses, will help you meet your goals.
  
  

Build a Community Page on Your Website

• If your company regularly supports the community, consider building a Community section or page on your website. You can add a link to your donation and sponsorship request form here. 
  
  
• Here's how Otter Co-op has set up their community webpage. You'll see they've posted some details about their Community Support Fund, including eligibility, program details, and a link to their application form.
