How it Works
How do we raise money?
Profit is made by selling products in your store. Participants can invite family and friends to shop via social media, text, and email.
Your group profits from every sale in your store.
Do participants need to register?
Registration is the most effective way to promote your fundraiser online. Once registered, participants can invite friends and family to your online store using text, social media, and email. They can also log in to their sales portal anytime to track their online sales. If you're offering one of our prize programs, online sales count towards earning prizes.
When more potential buyers click the link your sellers share, your store will see increased traffic and sales. Once they arrive at the store, the participant's name appears at the top of the page, personalizing the fundraiser. Encourage your sellers to further personalize the visitor experience by uploading their photos when they log in to their dashboard.
NOTE: Participants who add their picture are ten times more likely to get supporters than those who don't!
Before your sale starts, we send you access to your online sales portal. Sponsors can track things like:
- Registered participants
- Sales updates
- Sales by product
Enhance sales by setting individual seller goals based on your group's needs.
(Use the 'Calculate Your Profit' calculator at the top of the page to determine your profit)
Track your fundraiser progress and remind participants to invite people to your store to help them reach their goals.
Registered participants will also be eligible to win prizes. We encourage groups to supplement our prize program with additional incentives.
You can assign your group to separate teams. Participants can then add their team name when registering, so you can see online sales by team. Make selling even more fun by incorporating additional fundraising incentives to help foster competition between teams to boost overall sales.
Registration is Key
Getting your group to register is vital to your success, so start strong. 46% register on the first day, and 80% of registered participants sell, averaging $100 in sales per seller! Here are some ideas:
Pro Tips:
- Meet in person or over Zoom to discuss the importance of registration.
- Offer low-cost or no-cost incentives (extended recess, duct-tape the principal to the wall, water-balloon the principal, etc.) based on reaching a set registration level, such as 40-50%.
- Offer a registration prize (or everyone who registers by tomorrow goes into a special drawing).
- Email your parents to ask them to register (principals send an email for school-wide fundraisers).
- The goal is 100% registration, so keep reminding your group throughout the sale.
- Use our leaderboard to promote your fundraiser and boost sales.
Do we receive a group link?
There are two ways to promote your store:
- Registration: Participants will need your group link to register. This lets them log in and track their sales progress. When they share the link with friends and family using social media, text, and email, visitors will see the participant's name when they arrive at the store.
- Direct Link: If your group members don't want to register, they can send your group link.
Is money collected with each order?
There is no in-person ordering or money collection. Participants generate sales when the people they invite buy products from your store.
Can participants track their sales?
Participants can log in to their portal anytime to view sales updates.
Are there any fees?
No setup fees or costs apply to run a Crazy Socks Online fundraiser. We will waive the $50 admin fee once your group sells 50 products.
Can participants earn prizes?
Incentives can motivate your participants and boost sales. We offer two prize program options: cash or prizes. We will email you your prize flyer before your kickoff. After your sale, we add the total cash amount to your profit payment. Or, if you choose a traditional prize plan, we ship your prizes to your group address. You'll receive a sales report listing your participants' names and the amount they sold. Prizes are shipped with a reference list that matches prizes with participants. There is no cost to the group for our prize programs.
