Smencils work very well for our group because students need a pencil to complete their work, and what better way to complete their written work than with a sweet-smelling Smencil? The price is reasonable, so we see a decent profit margin, which goes a long way when you sell as many Smencils as we do!

MORE SMENCILS FUNDRAISER IDEAS

Smencil fundraisers are one of the most unique products on the market today. They are exactly what they sound like - pencils that smell.

Each is a unique scent, ranging from grape soda to bubble gum, grape jelly to black cherry… the list goes on! They’ve also recently branched out to include other options like glitter gel grip smens. Smens are pens that—you guessed it –smell.

Smencils got their start in Vancouver. The company brainstormed to produce an eco-friendly alternative to the average pencil. The result was smencils. Scented pencils are made from sheets of recycled and rolled newspaper.

Not only are they eco-friendly, but they’re also lead-free. And they’re number 2 pencils, which are important for every student. This makes them ideal school fundraiser items.

Since 2001, the company has partnered with schools to host smencils fundraiser campaigns. This helps generate the money to supply students with needed essentials.

Smencils fundraisers have quickly become one of the more exciting options for kids. There are an array of creative ways students can interact with them. For example, smencils are great for coloring books. The scents might apply to what they’re filling in, like apples or candy.

They also are a creative way of personalizing cards for someone. One idea is to organize an event where kids use their smencils to create cards for patients in hospitals.

A fun activity for parents to do with their kids is to create a coloring book! Try creating the pages with the tri-color smens and then fill them in with various smencils.

To get started, consider supplying everyone who buys a smencil with paper or a blank card. Complimentary ideas like these are great ways to maximize your smencil fundraiser.

One case of smencils holds 500 individual units. This means $225 in profits. Kids will likely want to buy several because of the vast assortment of designs and scents.

If it’s the holidays, they also come in a peppermint scent! Smencils are perfect for holiday cards paired with mint candies or chocolates.

You might also choose smens. They come in tri-color, glitter, and neon gel. Our favorite scent is hot cocoa, but kids will likely prefer blueberry. Try suggesting scent combos to upsell!

Consider marketing smens to adults. They can be used for grocery lists, lunchbox notes for kids, or even at the office. Sold at the suggested selling price of $2, a case of smens will profit you $288.

Each smencil and smen comes individually packaged in a vented tube to give you a preview of the smell. This makes them the perfect stocking stuffer or gift bag goodie.
