HI all, I've got the chance to do a fundraiser for a beautiful little girl in our area who has cancer and I want to get them the most I can.

My ?? is: Does anyone know for sure if I have a fundraiser in August, so they also get more money for the fund?? Meaning if fundraiser was $1000.00 would they get the $315.00 like a "real" show?? But in Money not products??

I want to be able to get the best, as we've got a local company willing to MATCH the proceeds!!

Thanks,

Lisa
 
No. That special is just for cooking shows. Fundraisers are different..they get a % of the sales. Exact earning potential for fundraisers can be found in your Consultant Policy Guide.

Oh, I was getting excited about them being able to get more than that 10 or 20%...oh well, I tried!!

Thanks Keith for quick response.

Lisa, I'd do what my Relay for Life hosts did. Take the free products and raffle them off!

They got GOLD that year and were so happy! I donated my commission too ... it was BIG.
 
It's listed in the fine print of the Host Special flyer. Most answers about the specials can be answered by reading that information.
