Making Your Smens Fundraiser Click

Making Your Smens Fundraiser Click

 

            Are you having a smens fundraiser a few weeks from now? Is it your first time to carry out an elementary school fundraiser? Then, you’re going to need all the help that possible. Don’t worry, raising funds is not as hard as you think it is and I will be discussing a few good tips in this article that will help you sell those scented pencils effectively in no time.

 

            A smens fundraiser is basically a product fundraiser because it works by selling out products to people in return for a fixed price for each item. This is how a product campaign. When you look at the overview, it’s not that hard actually but you need to make sure that you and your volunteers will prepare yourselves well for the tasks and challenges that you need to face in order for you to ascertain the success of your campaign. Selling smencils is a unique fundraiser idea, which means that you do not have to worry too much about the profitability of your product. Smencils have provided a huge change in the way people perceive the task of writing. Through these gourmet scented pencils, students are now enjoying writing down notes during their classes. This in turn makes learning more fun and exciting for kids. With this given fact, you will know that when you offer out scented pencils you not only get the chance to earn money but as well as the opportunity to let students know that learning can actually be fun.

 

            For my first tip, you need to determine the starting and ending dates of your campaign. In other words, you need to set the timeline of your campaign. When you do so be sure to stick to what you and your volunteers have agreed on. Having a set timeline will give you an idea as to how much time you have to raise the money that you need for your cause. A good way to use your timeline would be through dividing it into different segments based on the tasks that you need to accomplish. For example, for your planning phase, you can allot 3 weeks. This makes things more systematic and easy to understand for you and your volunteers. Another good tip to take note of would be to stick to one campaign at a time. For instance, if you decide on selling scented pencils or smens for this month, set your focus on that only instead of carrying out several campaigns at one time as this will create a lot of confusion for you and your volunteers. Moreover, managing several campaigns simultaneously can be really stressful and this will make you prone to making a lot of mistakes or errors.

            Lastly, choose a good fundraising company that will be able to provide you all of the necessary help that you need to make your campaign click. A good company is one that offers high profit margins for their products. In addition, the company that you choose should also feature a prize program if possible as this will serve as a good motivation for your volunteers to work hard.
