What Our Customers Say
How Does Catalog Fundraising Work?
Brochure fundraising allows schools to collect the money before receiving their order. This means sponsors won't spend extra time chasing down money later.
To get an idea of how much money you can make, use our' Calculate Your Profit' tool on each brochure page. Enter your group size and seller item goal.
Before your sale, we'll send each participant a catalog, order form, and money collection envelope. Ask your sellers to show the brochure to family, neighbors, and friends. After two weeks, send us your order forms for processing.
Your profit is the difference between how much you collect and your invoice. We'll also work with you to schedule your delivery date.

Catalog Fundraiser Suggestions & Tips

- Establish an item goal for your sellers and encourage them to set short-term daily goals.
- Remind your group to tell people who they represent and why they're selling.
- Tell them to be ready to sell. Always have their catalog, order form, money collection envelope, and pen.
- Make sure they're familiar with the brochure. They should be able to point out various items to people.
- Track your participants' sales progress.
Brochure sales offer plenty of options and can thus yield great results. And showing a catalog to family and friends allows you to share your cause. Yet engaging your community can be intimidating.
But with our brochures and the proper techniques, you will likely hit your sales goals! One of our favorites is cookie dough, a tried and true classic brochure fundraiser. Or, if it’s autumn, try a pie brochure. Gourmet Pies offers a traditional Pumpkin Pie that would be easy to slice up for Thanksgiving dinner.
Another option for traditional catalog sales is holiday gift wrap. Almost everyone will need it. So position this essential item alongside a compelling mission for your fundraiser. People will be thankful that you saved them a trip to a crowded department store.
Pro Tip: Make sure to remind people that the gift wrap is double-sided! This is a huge value-add, and customers will appreciate getting more for their money.
The major benefit of doing a brochure fundraiser is that you won’t ever risk buying more than you can sell. This means that no matter the results, you will always be profitable. Brochure sales ensure no extra charges for needless products.
Sometimes, with fundraisers like candy bars or pretzel rods, kids may lose an item or two. This results in an imbalanced spreadsheet of purchases. Selling out of a catalog eliminates this risk. When selling out of a brochure, customers place orders on an order form.
Additionally, catalog fundraiser sales are generally face-to-face, with ample opportunity to converse. This benefit can make the entire process very personable. Delivering products is a great way to remind people why they supported you in the first place. And it’s a surefire way to connect with people in your community!
Building these relationships can create a sustainable customer base. Friends and family can support you year after year in reaching your sales goals. Be sure to thank customers again once they receive their product.
Check out some of our favorites if you plan to have a brochure fundraiser. Otis Spunkmeyer® Cookie Dough and Popcornopolis® are very popular. Diversity, high-quality items, and appealing price points make this sale appealing.
Don’t forget to select a prize program to compliment your brochure. Students will be extra motivated to sell if an appealing prize or fun experience awaits them at the end! Plus, prizes are free to your group.
