One Big Fundraiser Don’t Do:

If your group presents a quality product like the Autograph-Memento or Creativity-Craft Kits to the community, to which the buyers respond favorably, your profit will stay consistent and grow through the years.

Parents, friends and relatives will actually look forward to your annual sale, increasing their order from year to year, telling their friends how good the products are. Often-times a school, camp, club or team may change their fundraising companies annually, thinking that another company or program might work better.

However, if the quality of products is inconsistent or service provided is inferior, community trust is broken. The buyer or fundraiser supporter will lose confidence in the products you are providing and, therefore, the credibility of your organization will suffer greatly.

People are less likely to support your follow-up fundraiser due to the fact that they felt dissatisfied which is a difficult task for any fundraising organization to recover from. It takes years to build community loyalty and support! If something works for you, stay with it!
Your focus should be on what will cause the kids to get the products out of their backpacks and out of their football or cheerleading gear bags. The chance for something to happen is great if they get the product flyer out of their bags and into the hands of mom or dad.

Once in the right hands, your fundraiser program has to cover a wide variety of interests, appealing to singles, moms, dads, older adults, teenagers, adolescents, and children. Then the program has to cover categories of interest that have real value, like apparel and mementos.
More variety means more selling tools on the front line with four Autograph-Memento and Creativity-Craft kits to choose from. But it still all comes back to motivating the kids to take the brochure out of the backpack. Strong incentives and a good product mix work well to create a successful fundraiser.
