Advice & Information
How
can we increase sales?
- The "most important"
sales advice we can offer is to make sure you (the administrator)
have a sales goal and a clear reason why
you are raising money. You must make sure the participants / parents
involved in the fundraiser tell potential buyers about those goals.
- Keep your fundraiser
"short & sweet". We suggest that you should run your "Brochure
Fundraiser" for no longer than two weeks. A "Direct Sale" Fundraiser
can be just one day or as long as two weeks. Bare in mind the
freshness factor when dealing with certain products.
- Choose your program
carefully. Every fundraiser is unique based on your community,
time of year, previous items used and how much money you need
to raise.
- Keep track of your
"Brochure Fundraising" campaign before, during and after delivery
of your merchandise. Click here

Do's
and Dont's
- Never allow young
children to solicit orders alone. They should always be in the
company of a responsible adult.
- When you order candy
make sure you do not over order. We cannot accept returns.
- If you have chosen
a prize program inform the children ahead of time what they could
receive. This will help increase sales.
- Do not run two fundraising
campaigns at the same time, as it will reduce sales of both.
