Raising money online adds a 2^nd way for your group to raise money.

Registration is the best way to promote your sale online. It's also a very effective way to get your participants engaged in your cause. As participants register, they’ll be able to share their unique link using text, social media, and/ or email.

Once supporters click on the link and arrive at the store, they will see a personalized message. For example, “You're shopping for John Doe” (name of participant). Sellers also have the option to upload their photo.

Registered sellers will also be eligible to earn credit towards prizes. We encourage groups to supplement our prize program with their own rewards. This can bring in even more sales. Here are some incentive ideas.

There are 2 ways to promote your store:

1. Registration: By default, you’ll receive your group link. Participants will need it to register, obtain their unique link, and then share it with others using social media, text, and/ or email.
2. Direct Link: Or, you can first register and forward your unique link to your entire group. Participants would be able to share your link with their friends and family.

Yes, your Alpine tumbler store will be set up to accept donations. You make 70% of the donated amount.

There are no order requirements for a Alpine tumbler fundraiser.

You’ll need to know your group size as well your participant goal. Here’s how you can estimate your profit:

Calculation Steps

1. Participant Count x Participant Item Goal = Items Sold
2. Items Sold x Average Retail Price = Gross Sales
3. Gross Sales x Profit % = Group Profit

Example

1. Let’s say you have 60 participants and you set your participant item goal at 10. The items sold would be 60 participants x 10 Items / participant = 600.
2. Next, determine your gross sales. The average retail price is about $30 so your gross sales would be 600 Items x $30 = $18,000.
3. Since your profit is 40%, your group profit would be $15,000 x 40% = $6,000.

Keep in mind, our example is only an estimated profit. In reality, participants probably won’t sell the same number of items. In addition, the average retail dollars sold per seller will vary.

Brochure: You most likely won’t know how many orders you get until you collect your order forms. Yet there are strategies that can give you a ballpark idea. Learn how to track your fundraising progress

Online: You'll be able to track online sales in real-time. By logging into your dashboard you'll see:

• Which participants have registered
• Individual participant and group sales progress

Brochure Sales: Money and order forms are turned in at the end of the sale. The money gets deposited in the group’s account and the order forms are sent in for processing.

Once orders are processed, the group receives their sales reports and invoice. The group sends a check for the invoice amount and keeps the rest as profit.

Online Sales: Once we receive your brochure invoice payment, we’ll send your online sales profit check.
