Fundraising Products for a Fast Fundraiser

One category of fundraising products that's always popular are items that are pre-purchased in bulk and offered for immediate sale. A prime example of this type of fundraising is doing a candy fundraiser. Each seller carries a box of candy bars for sale at prices generally in the $1 to $2 range. Often, sellers will seek out high-traffic locations such as grocery stores where they can offer their candy bars to large numbers of prospects in a short period of time. Other examples of immediate delivery merchandise include:
Discount certificate books
Almost every major fast food chain has some type of discount offer that they make available to fundraisers. Of course, each local franchisee has to be contacted for approval by the supplier for these to be made available in your market.
Generally these certificates are good for 'buy one get one free' type of offers. The main advantage of this type of sale is a higher dollar sale based on the perceived value of being able to use the certificates across a defined time period. Several companies consolidate these offers and combine them with a host of local special offers from restaurants, movie theaters, family fun centers, and other merchants to create a large coupon book of special offers. A major brand in this category is the Entertainment book sold by Sally Foster. Read More>>
