The number one question on most people’s minds when they are evaluating a fundraiser is “how much will we raise with this program?” The amount that your group can raise with a product sales fundraiser is determined by two things - how much profit you make per item and the total quantity of items sold.
I normally advise groups to seek out fundraisers that offer a minimum of 40%-50% profit. Sometimes you will find programs that offer more or less than that and if it’s something that you can sell a high quantity of, it could be a great fundraiser. Programs that offer more than 50% with high quality and popular products are even better because your group will earn more for each individual sale.
If you have browsed through the candy fundraiser programs that are available such as Hershey, M&Ms and World’s Finest Chocolate, you will notice that 50% profit is the standard. This means that for every $1 candy bar you sell, your organization keeps .50 as profit. Your group will need to sell a high quantity of candy bars in order for this to be a good fundraiser.
Recently World’s Finest Chocolate released a program that is unheard of in the world of candy fundraisers. For every case of chocolate candy your organization purchases to use as a fundraiser you will get one case free. The minimum order for this special offer is just 20 cases.
Note: This special offer ends Friday, September 30th, 2005.
With this special buy one get one free offer, you are substantially increasing the profit your group makes on each and every candy sale.
One of the other unusual aspects of this special is that it applies to the World’s Finest Chocolate brand of premium chocolates. These are not just your usual candy bars that anyone can buy in the grocery store. They are a high quality brand of chocolate, comparable to Russel Stover. This high quality will also foster more sales. The special offer includes the specialty chocolates at the $2 and $5 levels.
$2 Chocolates include Caramel Whirls, Fund Raisins, Mint Meltaways
$5 Premium Chocolates include Continental Almonds, Mint Meltaways, Chocolate Covered Pecans, Caramel Whirls, Majestic Biscuits, Malted Milk Balls, and Peanut Butter Bears.
So now because you’ll be getting a free case for every one purchased, you’re cutting your costs in half and increasing your profits. For example, instead of the usual $1 you’d earn on a $2 candy bar, now you’ll earn $1.50.
Since you will be selling the higher priced items instead of the $1 bars, this will also help your organization earn more. Instead of having to sell 5 chocolate bars at $1 each, you could sell one box of $5 boxed chocolates. Even better, encourage your supporters to buy several boxes of chocolate each. This increases your overall sales!
Most groups such as schools, sports teams or other groups with at least 20 sellers can do really well with this type of program. You can sell the chocolates at school, pep rallies, sports events, grocery stores or just person to person.
Remember, it’s normally 50% profit for these candies, but now you can see higher profits and raise more money than ever before with this special offer. But act fast because the last day to take advantage of this special offer is Friday, September 30th, 2005.
