HOBY / College Options Program for 2009 Leadership Seminars

HOBY has partnered with the College Options Foundation to provide college admissions and financing information to ambassadors and parents through the sale of “The Complete Guide to College Financing and Admissions” DVD Program and Zero Hour Threat, the ACT/SAT Prep Game CD at local seminars.

Sites share in the revenue generated from the sale of DVD’s. To capitalize on the sales potential, sites should plan to present the College Success seminar to parents and/or student ambassadors during the seminar, either as a parent’s seminar, with a college information panel or as a stand alone program. The DVD program sells for $35.00; $10 of each sale goes to the seminar site.

Seminars can participate in one of two manors:

  1. Consignment Sales: Sites opt-in and are shipped DVD’s to sell, sites return all payments to HOBY International within 30 day of the seminar, HOBY International will mail their portion payment ($10 per unit sold) within 60 days of receipt. The site will return all unsold DVD’s to the College Options Foundation within 30 days of the completion of their seminar. There is no financial risk to seminars with this option.
  1. Direct Purchase: Sites opt-in, order and pay the discounted fee of $25 per DVD to HOBY International. Sites keep any unsold DVDs for future use, and keep all revenue generated. You will be invoiced for the DVD’s
