Learn about our timeline

Your sale lasts for 2 weeks. You can always change your end date. Simply let us know before your sale is over.

Yes, selling online is an important part of your Amazing Dough fundraiser. Before your sale, you’ll receive registration instructions to pass onto your participants. Once registered they’ll be able to invite friends and family to shop at your store.

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

Registration is the best way to sell our products online. It's also a great way to get your participants engaged in your cause. Once registered, participants invite people to your store by sharing their unique link. They can do this using text, social media, and/ or email.

Once customers arrive at the store, the participant’s name appears at the top of the page. This helps make it recognizable to friends and family. For example, “Thank you for supporting John Doe with ABC High School Band!”

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 will be provided a link to forward to your participants. Once they click on it and register, they will receive their own unique online store link via email. They can then share their link with others using social media, text, and/ or email.
2. Direct Link: Or, we can create a unique link that would bypass the registration process. Your group would be able to share your link with their friends and family.

Yes, your store will be set up to accept donations. You make 70% of the donated amount. You have the option to turn this feature off when logged into your portal.

There are no order requirements for a Amazing Dough 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 $19 so your gross sales would be 600 Items x $19 = $11,400.
3. Since your profit is 40%, your group profit would be $11,400 x 40% = $4,560.

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 probably won’t know how many orders you get until you collect your order forms. But 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
• Email and social share activity
• 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: We deduct your online sales profit from your invoice. If you raise more money online, we’ll send you a check for the difference.

Donations: Any profits from donations are deducted from your brochure invoice.

Groups make 40% off all brochure and online items.

You receive 70% of online donations.

(Use the ‘Calculate Your Profit’ calculator at the top of the page to determine your profit)

We deliver brochure orders to your group 3-4 weeks after receiving your order forms. Online orders generally ship to customers within 3 business days after purchase.

Minimums include combined sales made from the brochure and online store.

Buyers also have the option to ship their order to the group. In this case there is no shipping fee.
