10 simple ideas that work
- Hold up Signs in the morning. “Sell Cookie Dough” Or Sell Wrap and gifts. You’ll be surprised how this will increase your sale…get the student council to do it during the sale.
- Send Reminderstwo times during sale. (see form in back)
- Send first reminderquickly, 2 days after the start.
- Phone Tree - Call EVERY FAMILY, (Try ) Easy way to call everyone with your recorded message! Explain why it’s important. Give a goal: “If every family sells 12 items we’ll net $15,000.00” Start Message with “Hi, It’s Jane from School, sorry for the recorded message, but, if every family sells just 10 items our school can buy, etc. etc.”
- Go to Rooms halfway through sale and talk to the students.
- Attend teacher meeting and encourage them to talk it up.
- Attend a Parent meeting stress the importance of the sale.
ON-LINE ORDERS
I promise, it won’t be as difficult as the picture above, but my sense of humor couldn’t resist!!
ORDERING ON-LINE:
Buyers go to and click “shop online”. Students will automatically get credit for online purchases.
You can also check on-line orders…on line.
See then click Order Status
HOW TO PROCESS ORDERS
- Accurately Count the money collected.
- In the “Total $ Rec’d space at bottom right of each order form write in the Amount of Money You Counted . If you don’t fill in this box on every order some orders will note “no money indicated collected.”
- Make sure orders are clearly written; name of seller, teacher, grade or room number, school on each order.
- Send us the top copy of each Order
- You Must Sort by class & Send by Class inBIG Class/Team Order Envelopes. You do not need to alphabetize orders inside.
- Make sure the school name, room number/class and teacher is on the outside of each Class/Team Order Envelope.
- Don’t send Money, only send the top copy of the order
- Send to our processing center using the Fed Ex label we
have provided.
VARIANCE REPORT
A week after you send us the orders we will send you an accounting, BY CLASS AND STUDENT WITH A CLEARLY NOTED AMOUNT STILL DUE IF STUDENT UNDERPAID or REFUND DUE IF OVERPAID. Why reconcile orders when we do it for you! You must fill in Total $ Rec’dat bottom of every order if you want this report to be completely accurate.
COLLECTING MISSING MONEY
If you find the seller still owes money, Xerox and send home the MissingMoney form we are providing with this book. You have a week or more to collect the missing money before the product arrives....
FAXING US ABOUT MISSING ITEMS
Use the Discrepancy Form provided....don’t call in every day – wait - write it down, the number of the item, description, how many missing or problem. When you are not receiving more calls, fax us the listat 925-681-1575and we’ll send it in one to three days. This is the advantage of our local warehouse. If we already sent the item once, we have to charge UPS and cost of the item...So, check their packingslip or look online and see if we sent it and they lost it.
Some reps are taking calls for you, if this is the case, you do not have to worry about discrepancies, sellers will call our rep directly.
Warehouse Fax: 925-681-1575
LATE ORDERS
We want you to make as much as possible so fax late orders right away. If we can include it with the regular accounting and truck there is no extra charge. If we have to UPS it separately, we have to charge the cost of UPS. But, it might be worth it if it’s a big order…you’ll have to decide.
DELIVERY
We will notify you before delivery. Our driver will stack the items by class IN ONE LOCATION inside the school. Each order is sorted according to class, student and teacher or room. If a student sold a lot, they may have their own box or two boxes. If there’s a late order(s) they may be in a Miscellaneous Box. You’ll get a key to follow…it’s really easy, as each grade or class will have a BIG LETTER that corresponds to that room!
PRIZES
Prizes are packed with each order. If it’s a REALLY BIG PRIZE, it will be separate but still with the orders. PICK A PRIZE CHOICES must BE WRITTEN on the order form or we will pick one for the seller. cUMULATIVE PRIZES NEEDS NO CHOICE. Our computer automatically sends these prizes. Online Orders will be added automatically.
PAYING THE BILL
Your bill is due when you receive it. There may be another bill if you send late orders and we had to process them separately.
Please don’t hold up paying because of a few minor items.
YOUR PROFIT AND TAX
We’ve made it easy, tax is already included in our prices, YOU collected it from your customers. We MUST subtract the tax and send it to the State of California, (it’s not ours or yours, it’s the State’s). A separate check will be sent for your on-line sales. You can check your ON- LINE and regular sales by going to click Order Status and put in the User Name and Password we provided you.
AFTER OVER 35 YEARS IN FUNDRAISING, WE’RE HONORED EVERY TIME YOU CHOOSE TO WORK WITH US. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU!!!!
