I just presented my first fundraiser proposal & am needing help with a few things that came up.
How long do you leave a fundraiser open for?
Which order forms do you use?
Do you have all the orders sent direct, to the chairperson or you?

I greatly appreciate any & all help! Also do you know any great trainings on fundraisers, if so please let me know. I am greatly looking to expand this wonderful area of my businness.
 
Call Home Office with those questions...they know their stuff and can answer all your questions as well as offer you tips on how to make your FR a huge success! Good luck with it!
 
You can search the files here for ideas. I use the OOFs but then put everyone's onto a regular order form. What all did you tell them you would do? Who pays for the catalogs...you or them? How many people are involved in selling? The nightmare one I did, I had the orders sent to me because of the whole attitude of the Gymnastics Club personnel. I didn't trust them not to claim things were missing. You can have the check sent c/o you so the order can come to you. I'm attaching the proposal I got from here that I have tweaked for my use! I think you will find that you will receive more "experienced" information from those on here who have done fundraisers than calling HO! (Please don't think I am being negative to your comment, epimomma, but most people we talk to at HO aren't consultants!)

Jane posted some great info! And, I agree about calling HO. Maybe if you had a question as to where to find it, but I'd call my director for training before I'd call HO. Nothing against HO at all! Love 'em!

For the length of the fundraiser, it depends on how many participants, usually about two weeks. I use the outside order forms for the month of the FR. I usually have everything sent to the chair. If you feel it would be better off going to you, than do that!

As far as training, they really aren't any different from a catty or cooking show. The files posted above will be a help! Plus, you can do a search for FR on CS... there is LOTS of info! Good luck and have fun!
 
I try to keep it in the same month so there's no confusion about guest specials.
Tell the host about the "for our host" link on your web page. They can see who placed orders and how well the show is going.
