How does the program work?

 

 

Choose the brochure you want to offer your supporters (14-Page Candle/Accessories/Gift Wrap, 1-Page Classic Jar Candle, and/or Cookie Dough)

 

Review the terms of the Sales Agreement, complete, and submit to our office by fax, scan, or postal mail. 

 

There's no need to wait to receive brochures and there an no start up fees.!  Our office is prepared to ship USPS Priority Mail today the materials you'll need to get started.  You'll receive a confirmation email from the USPS and you'll receive your shipment within just 2-3 days.  We’ll also send an email from our office including a sample cover letter you can modify for your organization. 

 

Please let us know if you'd like to offer online fundraising and your webpage can be set up in just a few simple steps.

 

Along with your brochures you'll receive a Fundraising Guidelines packet with step by step instructions, a Master Order Form for submitting the total number of each item sold, and a Check In Form for you to use when receiving your delivery. A spreadsheet will be provided for all cookie dough orders for submitting your cookie dough orders.

 

If your organization is tax exempt please contact our office to review the requirements for tax exemption and fax your certificate to us at 410-630-7080.  Our office is very experienced in processing tax exemption requirements for each state and we’re ready to assist you. Your tax exemption certificate is not required in advance of receiving your brochures but we encourage you to secure the correct document in order for our tax department to verify your tax exemption status.

 

If your organization is not tax exempt you can opt to collect additional money to cover the tax.  (Should you opt to collect $1.00 per item, for example, we will collect the tax due on the purchase and you will retain any additional monies collected.)

 

Distribute your brochures to your sellers and determine how long you will continue your sales.  (Most organizations sell for 2-3 weeks)  Customer checks, if accepted, are made payable to your organization.

 

At the conclusion of your selling period collect all brochures and payments from your sellers.  There are no minimums for submitting an order. Complete a  Master Order Form listing the shipping address and total number of each item sold. Fax, email, or phone in the totals and we will email an invoice to you with the total amount due.  You'll keep your brochures and your profit and only remit payment for your purchase, and any applicable charges that may be due for tax, shipping, etc.  If you are with a school that requires payment following delivery please inform us when you submit your sales agreement to discuss the acceptance of a Purchase Order.

 

Shipping is generally free and is determined upon the volume of sales.  When your purchase is $990 or greater shipping is free.  (That's approximately 160 candles or 120 tubs of cookie dough.)  With sales less than $990 12% shipping is added to your purchase price (not your customer sales).  The maximum fee for shipping will be $50.00.  Presorting by seller is available and can be selected when you close your fundraiser. If selected a fee of 25 cents per item is added to your invoice for candle brochure orders, and free when promoting our cookie dough brochure..

 

Once we have received payment (business check, school check, cashier's check, or money order) you'll receive confirmation and your order will be submitted with no delay to our shipping department.  We have one distribution center from which all orders are processed and are shipped to you by FedEx.  You are welcome to call our office anytime for shipping updates and estimated delivery date(s).   Once your order has been submitted you can generally expect to receive your shipment within 9 business days.  Late orders are accepted.  Receipts and W-9 forms are provided as needed.

 

Rarely are there any missing or broken items with our shipments.  However, should any corrections be required you simply return a provided form and we will process a new order for the replacements to be shipped. 

 

We’ll provide coaching to help your campaign be successful, extended office hours Mon-Sat 9am-7pm EST, and a solid commitment to process your order and needed replacements with no delay.  When you need help we'll be available to assist you!
