Flowers Online

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.

Buyers can purchase bulbs, seeds, and roots. We do not carry live plants in the soil, so nothing is potted or growing, but some roots might have sprouted. Bare-root plants are dormant perennials, meaning they are not actively growing. They are dug up and stored without any soil around their roots. We recommend planting promptly.

Your group receives a profit from each sale.

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'll also be able to log in to their sales portal at any time 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 at the store, the participant's name appears at the top of the page, helping personalize 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, which will help your participants 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, allowing you to see online sales by each 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, and you want to start strong. 46% register on the first day, and 80% of registered participants sell, translating to an average of $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 continue to remind your group throughout your sale.
• Use our leaderboard to promote and boost sales throughout your fundraiser.

There are two ways to promote your store:

1. Registration: Participants will need your group link to register. This way, they can 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.
2. Direct Link: If your group members don't want to register, they can send your group link.

There is no in-person ordering or money collection. Participants generate sales when the people they invite buy products from your store.

Participants can log in to their portal at any time to view their sales updates.

There are no setup fees or costs to run a Flowers Online fundraiser. We will waive the $50 admin fee once your group sells 50 products.

Motivating your participants by using incentives can improve 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.

1. Cash
2. Prizes

There are no minimum order requirements.

Your profit payment is processed within 10 business days after your store's closing.

Your profit percentage is based on the number of products your group sells:
