Avon Fundraisers

We've concentrated and will be working harder at providing more fundraisers. With the economy as it is it seems that non profit organizations are more likely to participate. It seems reasonable that an individual will be more likely to support an organization if they something for their donation - and hey most folks can afford $10.00
We have noticed however, you must have some rules in dealing with your organizations, ie. no third party checks and certainly do not release the order until it's been paid for - you could get left holding the bag!
Let us know what you think about this subject via the comments at the bottom. Have you run any fundraisers and if so what did you notice?
Since the return is 30% and you have the ability to enlist a small army (those participating in the fundraiser) to assist you it can be very lucrative, and remember it'll get you closer to presidents club and the perks that go with that level.
As we work out the nuts and bolts I'll report back to you and let you know how we do it.

UPDATE

Remember this. 10% of the people do 90% of the work. That means if you have a fund raiser with 20 participants chances are only 2 will generate any money! Everyone will seem as though they're "onboard" but actually they're not, everyone assumes the "other guy" will carry the load. The result is both you and the organization will be dissapointed.
