What Our Customers Say

It was awesome! First, the product came way quicker than I expected. I thought the product would arrive two weeks after the invoice was received, but it came the very next week! Then, you had each participant's order separated into separate packaging, which might not sound impressive to you, but trust me, it is. This, by far, was one of the easiest fundraisers I've done. In fact a co-worker of mine was there when I was unboxing and checking things, and she kept saying, "Oh, this is so nice! This makes it so much easier for you." I was very impressed with how your company organized everything.

We sold jelly beans and we had a great turn out. Everything went great. We were very pleased with our outcome. We reached our goal to purchase t-shirts and had money leftover. Thanks for being patient and answering all my questions! Next time should go much smoother since we will know better how it all works.

The products sold well for the most part. We had planned to sell quite a bit more, but with quite a few of our group either being quarantined as a precautionary or no longer on the team after fundraiser was planned, it didn't go as hoped.

Everyone loves their socks. It was fantastic for us to receive them prepacked per participant and had their order forms ready to go. The only issue that we have seen so far is not being aware of when orders that were purchased online and sent home would be sent out to the families.

Last week went extremely well! We were very pleased with the whole process of delivery and distribution! We’ve only had one parent that was missing one popcorn. And I just replaced it with one of my own. Other than that one, we haven’t had any other parents reach out, which is great. Only other “complaint” so to speak, was the taste of the cheddar for a couple people. A couple of parents said it didn’t taste like they think it normally does. They said it seemed like maybe it was partially stale and “over-cheddared”. I let them exchange with my extras for a different flavor just to remedy it quickly. That’s a hard one though bc taste is so subjective. Others I asked that tried their cheddar said they didn’t think anything was wrong and it was good. So possibly they just didn’t like it or it was maybe part of a bad batch?

One suggestion we have on the online ordering, is to have the parents input the child’s teacher and have that on the report page that shows the total online student orders so that when we have those orders, we can still easily see which class to distribute to. We just had to take one extra step with the school office to figure out where to distribute those online orders that were delivered to school. But it wasn’t major.

Overall, we’re so happy with the whole entire fundraising process with you all and have already recommended your company to other local school PTA’s! Thank you so much for the help and we’re so happy this was an incredibly successful fundraiser for our PTA!

Balloons tied to person wearing crazy socksHow Do Specialty Fundraisers Work?

Sponsors are looking for unique fundraising ideas. They want to stand out from the crowd. A brochure focusing on a single product category or theme can make a powerful statement.

First, select a specialty brochure. We'll send you brochures, order forms, and money envelopes for everyone in your group. You'll also receive a parent information letter with instructions.

After you take orders, send us your order forms for processing. We'll then send you a sales report and an invoice and work with you to schedule your delivery date.

Want to estimate how much money your group can make? Type your student count and goal into our 'Calculate Your Profit' tool. You'll find our calculator on each brochure page. Your profit is the difference between the total money you collect and your invoice.

  • Be aware of the holidays when scheduling your fundraiser. Your student should have ample time to deliver their merchandise beforehand.
  • Plan to meet with your students to kick off your sale. This allows you to discuss your goals and expectations.
  • Tell students how many items they need to sell to reach your goal.
  • Teach your students the ‘NOW Selling Method’. They need to tell people their ‘Name’, ‘Organization’, and ‘Why’ they’re raising money.
  • Provide a deadline date for turning in order forms and money.
  • Be sure to keep a copy of the order forms for your records.

 

More Specialty Fundraiser Ideas

Pick an item to wow your customers with a specialty catalog fundraiser. These unique, curated products will set you apart from the pack.

Specialty catalogs show you mean business. They focus on one item but can offer many varieties of it. These brochures are a good idea for targeting specific niche audiences—for example, hazelnut crème coffee for a book club meeting early in the morning.

"Ultimate Coffee" is our favorite because no day is complete without a cup of morning joe. The donut shop blend is the best to pair with other bakery items and even comes in a decaf version.

If you plan to sell to the other parents at the book club, ensure the smell of coffee is in the air when they arrive—each 11oz bag of coffee yields around 70 cups.

If you want some name-brand recognition, check out Poppin Popcorn. Poppin Popcorn offers several classic flavors, including caramel corn and white cheddar. Other unique flavors include jalapeño cheddar and Zebra®. All popcorn is popped in coconut oil, has no high fructose corn syrup, and is gluten-free and GMO-free.

Crazy Socks is another fun brochure to sell and will get people's attention. It offers a variety of exciting options, like Coffee Time, Pizza Slice, Gamer, and Rock & Roll socks.

Another specialty catalog option is to sell your school tumbler. Our tumblers can be customized with your school name, logo, and colors. Teams can show their tumbler brochure to raise money for tournaments or competitions.

22 oz. Tritan tumbler is BPA free, microwave and dishwasher safe. It also comes with a lifetime guarantee. Tumblers help raise awareness for your cause and regularly remind you of school spirit.

Specialty brochures are an excellent option for the variety catalog. One of our favorite specialty brochures is the Heartland Candles brochure. Candles are ideal for a back-to-school teacher gift or a birthday present for Mom.

They're also popular. You'll find them in almost every home (7 out of every 10 Americans, to be exact!), which means they have wide appeal. Candles are perfect for holiday fundraisers if you want to sell "gift-able" products.

Two seasonal catalogs include our fall or spring flower lines. Our flowers are eco-friendly and smell wonderful. With a 100% grow guarantee, they'll beautify anyone's garden. Make sure you know when we offer these programs during the school year.

You might focus on the niche church market for this type of fundraiser. Sell them after Sunday school or at a church dinner to capitalize on your target audience. Yet, there's a large selection of flowers; you can sell them to almost anyone.

It's important to understand the audience you plan to sell to and identify the perfect time and place for the event. A coffee fundraiser during a school carnival doesn't make sense. Parents outside at an event would be too distracted to think about when they might want coffee.

Yet a gourmet popcorn fundraiser would make complete sense. They may already have some, making selling it the perfect gift. Put yourself in the customer's shoes, and you'll be set up for success.
