How do product fundraisers, like donuts, chocolate bars, or cookie dough fundraisers, compare to Snap! Raise?
Inventory Costs
Product fundraisers first require a program to spend money on inventory, limiting how much they can raise to the profit margin of the product.
Time-Consuming Sales
They also often require door-to-door sales or booths set up in the community for participants to sell the products. This is at best a waste of valuable time for participants, and at worst endangers them. That time to sell means time spent away from school work or practice.
Low Demand
The products that are offered for these kinds of fundraisers are often not highly in demand by consumers, and therefore not highly in demand by your participants’ friends, families, and community. This leads to pestering friends and family with items they don’t want or will ultimately throw away, creating waste. In some cases, programs may not raise very much or even end up in the red, because no one is willing to buy the product they’re selling.
The Snap! Raise difference
