Instructions
Step 1: Define your project
- Where are the bricks/tiles going to be installed?
(a wall, a new walkway, a patio, a walkway over existing concrete) - How many bricks will you need? What is the
square footage of your project? Of those, how many do you
expect to engrave? - What is the project time line (installation, ceremonies)?
- How many installations? We suggest you consider doing two or
more installations. After the first installation you will most likely
have the admiration and attention of many more donors.
Campaign prices are often increased after the first installation. - Who will do the construction? (Architect? Contractor? Volunteers?)
- How will the bricks/tiles be installed? (cement or sand base)
An effective construction method is to install all bricks (marked
and unmarked) in a sand base, and if bricks need to be marked
later they are easily incorporated. Campaigns can last years
when enough square footage is planned and enough bricks
installed.
Step 2: Choose your brick or tile
- What type of bricks/tiles will you be using? Your own? Ours?
We have many colors to choose from. - What size bricks/tiles? (4×8, 8×8, 6×6,12×12, 16×16)
- How will your bricks/tiles be designed?
Text only, clip art with text, signatures, logos…
(Please contact us for order form/character count guidelines) - Refer to our price list.

| 600 | $100 / $250 / $500 | $49,500 / $139,500 / $289,500 |
Step 3: Campaign
- How much will you charge for each brick? Consider the size of
your project, cost of installation and the demographics of your
prospective donors. - Installation is your biggest expense. Maximize your profits by finding volunteers to install your bricks. If using a professional
mason or contractor to install bricks obtain at least two to three
estimates. Consider this before setting a campaign price. - If using a professional mason or contractor to install bricks ask
for an estimate. Consider this before setting a campaign price. - Increase the price of bricks after the initial installation. Seeing
the initial installation often encourages new donors to get
involved. This is another opportunity to increase your profits. - Bring in corporate sponsors. Corporate bricks can include logos,
opening opportunities for higher level donors/sponsors willing
to donate five to ten times the normal amount. - Offer duplicate bricks at a reduced amount. Duplicate bricks
can be displayed at the donor’s home, garden, or business. - How will you reach potential donors? Campaign flyers, website,
newsletters, phone campaign, and local press are just a few
examples of spreading the word.
