Raise It
Ken’s book is like finding a map to
buried treasure. Everything is laid out
in very simple, straightforward steps
and X marks the spot.

Need to raise money for your show?
Learn my secrets of how to raise any amount you need …
and fast.
Do you have a show you want to get off the ground, but you don’t have a clue as to how you’re going to get the money?
Or maybe you’re working on a show right now, and you still don’t have the cash you need? (I’ve been there – makes you sweat, doesn’t it?)
And does the mere thought of asking people for money make you nervous?
I’ve been writing my blog about producing for over six years now and I get tons of emails with all sorts of questions about how to produce theater. But by a landslide, the most common question I get is, “How do I raise money for my show?”
So I thought it was about time I answered it.
But raising money isn’t a simple subject that can be dealt with in a blog post. It has taken me over ten years or experience raising millions of dollars for my Broadway and Off Broadway shows to come up with a strategy that works. Hard to sum that up in a few hundred words! So I sat down and wrote a 100+ page comprehensive how-to guide on the subject of raising money for the theater – the only one of its kind!
Do you know The Three Steps of the Raise?
And which one is the most important?
My so-easy-to-follow-a-monkey-could-raise-money “Three Steps of the Raise” process is what I’ve used to raise millions of dollars for my Broadway and Off Broadway shows, including the first ever crowd-funded Broadway musical, Godspell, which was featured on the front page of The New York Times for its unique fundraising strategy.
For the first time ever, I’m sharing all of the tips and tricks I’ve used to get my shows up on their feet in an easy to follow how-to manual.
Here’s what you will learn!
All of this info is jam packed into a hundred page book filled with everything I do when I’m raising money for a show. And it can be used for any size budget, from a few thousand dollar Kickstarter campaign, to a multi-million dollar Broadway show.
But there’s more.
See, the book is just the beginning. What you’re getting is an entire home study course on how to raise money for your show (or your film, your charity, or whatever for that matter!).

My Raise it or Refund Guarantee
Don’t raise the money you need? I’ll give you a refund. No questions asked.
Now listen. I’m going to admit something. This book and all those materials aren’t cheap.
I’ve written down the exact strategies I use when raising money, and, well, those are pretty valuable to me, so I’ve got to charge for ‘em, as I’m sure you can understand.
But think of it this way. I know guarantee I can help you raise money . . . a lot of money. Just a few of my tips can help you raise 100 times the price of this package! Easy!
A business coach of mine (I’m a big believer that everyone could use a coach) recommended that I charge $999 for this package, because in her words, “That’s less than 1% if the person raises $100,000!” But I didn’t want to charge that much.
My live seminars on raising money cost upwards of $695. But I didn’t want to charge that much either, even though this product includes the information we cover in the live seminar, plus all the other materials, including those bonus materials of the offering documents, budgets, etc. for a broadway show, AND my Front Money course! Plus all resources on The Producer’s Perspective PRO, my online membership site for Producers!
The cost of the course and all other materials is just . . . $197/mo.
Plus, you’re free to cancel anytime!
Join today. And you’ll be raising tomorrow. GUARANTEED.

RAISE IT! packs a punch! I enthusiastically recommend it to any artist who is looking for a fantastic introductory course to fundraising. It is one of the best intro courses I’ve taken anywhere on ANY topic — not only comprehensive and informative, but dynamic, great fun, and best of all, deeply inspirational. Full of great “insider” tips and insights from Ken’s own experiences, it takes fundraising out of theoretical principle and lands it squarely in personal experience that we can all relate to, providing step-by-step guidance and checkpoints to keep you on track. I will be referring to it for many years to come. Many thanks for this invaluable learning tool!

Hold These Truths
As a first time producer, pulling together the funds for a production of a brand new musical can be a duanting task! Ken’s book ‘Raise It’ is proving to be a very valuable resource to help guide me through the process and highlight the pitfalls. It clearly outlines the steps I need to take in order to make my dream a reality and I already refer to it on an almost daily basis as I work my way towards my goal. A huge added benefit is; if I get stuck I can email Ken directly for advice. I’m now looking forward to seeing my show on stage in the next year.

As I continue to self-produce my new musical I find myself referring back to my notes from Ken Davenport’s “How to Raise Money” seminar on a regular basis. It helps me maintain focus and momentum implementing my own fundraising campaign. Ken has distilled his fundraising methods into manageable steps to be undertaken in a logical, intuitive way, using real examples from his own successful fundraising experience.

As a first-time theatrical producer, Ken Davenport’s “How to Raise Money” essential tools allowed me the strength to open up some pretty heavy doors. Recently I pitched my project to a seasoned Broadway producers panel and all not only said “great pitch” but wanted to know more about the project. Very gratefully, I thank Ken Davenport for that.

I saw a show tonight and I used some of your tips while speaking to the person next to me and he seems like he might want to invest in my show!

Since applying the principles from Raise It, I’ve more than doubled the donations to my current show!

The book is great but the CD’s are what makes this special. Just had a 4 hour drive from New York to Boston so popped in the CD’s for the drive. Ken is an engaging speaker. He takes on a topic which can be very complex and has a great way of breaking it down into simple step by step action items. He makes what could seem dull engaging, inspiring and just a pleasure to absorb. Save it for your next long ride.
