Should You Take a Date to Nightclubs?

From my personal experiences, I don't think it's a good idea and I'll explain why.

Being that I love to dance, I would suggest to women to go to a nightclub for a date. I did this with several women until I wised up and decided this was not such a good place to take a date, especially on a first date.

Here's a list of negative points about taking a date to nightclubs:

1. If your date is attractive, has a nice body, or wearing sexy and revealing clothes she will attract a lot of attention from all those leering and horny guys in the nightclub. When you go to the restroom guys will try to hit up on her. Who knows, she might even become interested in the guy and give her phone number to him to hook up later.

2. Some men even have the nerve to try and hit up on your date when you are together. They may even try to start up a conversation with her, ask her to dance, etc. When this happens, it really does piss me off. It's best to just tell the guy she is your date instead of trying to start trouble or even worse, a fight with these insensitive jerks that try to move in on your date.

3. Your date may flirt with other guys while you're in the nightclub. Some women are just natural flirts and like to draw attention to themselves. I think this is totally rude and any women who purposely flirts with other guys while she's on a date with me will certainly not get another date with me.

4. Of course, things can be just the opposite and you're the one who flirts with all the pretty girls you see at the nightclub. I know it's tempting to flirt with other women, but you must never do this when you are on a date. She will take notice that you're flirting and looking at other women and she's not going to like it. And this can spoil your chances for another date with her.

5. Nightclubs are very loud and it's hard to carry on a conversation. When you're first dating this should be a time of getting to know each other. And to get to know each other you need to be able to talk and hear each other. When you have to yell and have trouble hearing each other, this is not conducive to good conversation and communication.

6. One or both of you may run into an old lover while you're on your date. This can create an uncomfortable situation.

7. You may not be a good dancer and make a fool of yourself while out on the dance floor.

In closing, I recommend choosing some other place to take your dates, especially first dates. Once you have established a relationship with a woman, then it's perfectly ok to go to nightclubs for dates.

I would suggest going to a nice romantic restaurant for your first dates so you can talk and get to know each other. Then later you can go to nightclubs once you've gotten to know each other better.

Smart Fundraisers Know and Love their Donors

Do you know who your donors are? Do you know how much they gave last time? Do you know how much they've given over the years?

If you've got good record-keeping practices in place, you do know - and you tailor your messages to them accordingly.

Unfortunately, some small non-profits are not keeping track. They aren't even taking names or sending thank you notes, and that's a huge mistake. After all, if you take hard-earned dollars out of your pocket and give them away, don't you want to know that someone appreciated the fact? Most of us do.

The basic politeness factor aside, tracking donors and encouraging them to participate in your work will raise your revenues. Everyone wants to feel important, and when you not only thank your donors, but offer them ways to participate beyond monetary giving, you cater to that desire.

What can you do to encourage your donors to participate? Can you ask them to send a letter to their Senator? Can you ask them to attend an event? Can you ask them to talk to their friends and neighbors about your cause? Can you ask them to forward an email?

Whatever it is, you can't do it at all if you don't know who they are. If a check comes in and you merely deposit it without recording information about the donor, that person will probably not donate again. So there you are, constantly searching for new donors.

If, on the other hand, you send an immediate thank you, and follow that up with a letter or newsletter letting them know the good their money did, you'll make a friend. The next time you write an appeal you can thank them for past support and explain why you need them again.

The second reason for keeping track of donors and their giving amounts is so you can send an appropriate request. You can sort your donors into giving categories and tailor your appeal to their capabilities.

For instance, if you have a group of lower-income people who give what they can - and that consists of $5 or $10 every 2 or 3 months, you would not send a letter with a giving string beginning at $50. Conversely, if you have donors who give $100, $500, or $1000, you surely wouldn't want to include a giving string of $5 - $10 - $25 - $50.

Unless you keep records, how will you know which donor should receive which letter? But then, if you don't keep records, you have no one to mail to, so it doesn't matter.
