Dear Fund Raiser:
Thank you for your recent inquiry about our fundraising products that you saw on our world wide web page "Bob Moody presents fundraisingcentral.net"
We carry a wide selection of products, and have chosen to highlight several for our web customers. There is much detail in this message. If there is something you do not understand, additional information you need, or a question that is not answered, please contact us by toll-free phone or email for additional information. This information is subject to change without notice, so a phone call would be worth the time and effort to be sure you understand all the details of a product, program or service we offer. If you email us, tell us enough about your group (what type of organization, how many members, age range, reason for raising funds) so we can make intelligent recommendations.
If you gave us information about your group and asked for specific types of programs and you are receiving this by mail, then we have enclosed the information that in our best judgment will meet your needs and help you achieve your fund raising goals. If you are receiving this by email, then you will receive just this document. Please take the time to read and study it all!
If you find a program that you would like to use, please take action now and contact us, because we will not annoy you by constant phone calls, mailings, or emails-other than the seven messages sent by our autoresponder. We offer the best quality products at very fair prices, along with outstanding service. We work with those groups that take the initiative to seek us out and follow through. Our quality products and expertise, along with your clearly-defined goals and strongly-motivated approach, will ensure your success. We know we can make you as much or more money than anyone else. We know you are motivated and will follow through when you contact us.
Note: you should sell only one product type (such as Pennies to Dollars, cookies/candy bars, cookie dough, or a catalog sale using just one catalog) at a time for best results, except that first aid kits and fire extinguishers work well together with candy.
Our terms are
normally "payment due with order". Exceptions include school purchase
orders which may be accepted if the purchase order is signed by
the school principal, is faxed from the school's fax number to our
office, shows the school address, school telephone number, and school
fax number, includes the name of the faculty sponsor for the group
ordering products, and includes a street address suitable for shipping
by UPS or other common carrier. On approved school purchase
orders of direct sale candy items and postpay catalog sales run
directly
by schools, our terms are "net 20" which means payment is due in our
office
within 20 days from the date you receive the products. You can find our
invoice terms here.
Most school catalog sales (and all non-school catalog sales) are run as
prepay sales, payment due with order. We also accept Visa and
Mastercard, by phone.
For small non-school groups selling candy or cookies or using the
Pennies-To-Dollars cards, you can order the products on your personal
credit card, have it
delivered, sell it, and have the money in time to pay your bill when it
comes in. Youth sports organizations, Sororities, Fraternities, and
Service
Clubs are encouraged to obtain their own organizational Visa or
MasterCard.
For school groups doing catalog sales, we can supply catalogs at no
charge
with credit approval or a school purchase order. "National
Service
Club" accounts can be approved for "open account" ordering and free
brochures. Invoice and contract terms always take
precedence over information supplied on this web site.
Gift Wrap
For years schools have been using programs from "giftwrap only" companies. These firms have provided quality heavyweight papers that sell well in upscale neighborhoods. Now we are pleased to offer a program with all the quality plus variety unmatched by the wrap only companies. We are proud to feature quality wraps imported by "The Wisconsin Cheeseman. To these we have added quality chocolates, cheeses, and sausages from The Wisconsin Cheeseman. The combination is unbeatable in affluent communities and will easily give you a 50% increase in your real dollar profits above what you have been achieving on a "national giftwrap company" sale. Call for more information 800-326-9192 or email us for a sample brochure.Here is an excellent promotional idea:
CASH. Let the members of your group keep the amounts "rounded up"
and turn
in only a certain amount if the card is completed, such as letting them
keep
$15 or $20 if the card is completely scratched off. Then, if a member
turns
in a partially completed card, let another member complete it and make
another
$15 to $20. You decide on how much, based on your knowledge of your
group.
This way you stand to clear $52 or more per member because of the
higher
completion rate.
Call me for a free sample card and then go out and test it.
We will send you one of our "standard" cards, either with the "money" design, or one for your type of organization. Prove to yourself how easy this is and instantly raise $105 for your organization. Just ask everyone you see to "make a small donation to your group." You have nothing to lose and $105 to gain!
As you try our "standard" sample, just think how powerful it would be to carry around a card with your group's picture on it, or with a picture of that item you are raising funds to purchase for your organization, school, league, or church!
Schools can put a drawing of the new playground structure on your card. Bands can use a photo taken at a recent competition on your card. Sports leagues can put a team picture on the card, or a picture of the new piece of equipment to be purchased. Churches raising money for an organ fund can use a picture of the new organ . Fire and Rescue organizations can use a picture of the new vehicle to be purchased. Service clubs can use a picture of the camp for which they provide scholarships .
No matter what the size of your group, we can help you raise the
MOST MONEY.
There is no minimum order. To get free cards you need to
order at least 8 because that's what it takes for 1 free card.
Types of cards:
Custom cards with your own photo on them--- you invest $25
for the
picture set up plus you invest
(You can order on line, but you have to mail us your photo!)
$20 for the 5 cent to $3 60 spot card
that raises $105
$20 for the $1 $2
$3 60 spot card
that raises $120
$20 for the $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 40-spot card that
raises $125
$20 for the $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 40-spot card that raises
$156
And remember... we send you 15% free cards with every order, so you actually get back your initial investment on cards if your free cards are fully scratched out, and the way to do that.... IS PROMOTION!
After you try the sample and figure out how to make the MOST MONEY.... given the reason you are raising funds and the natural motivation of your group... Then place your order and meet your goal!

These catalogs include an excellent selection of
gift wrap on rolls (fall programs) , cheese and sausage , chocolates,
gift items, cards and wrap accessories. Ordertaker
brochures are $1 each, but we may be able to furnish them free of
charge, so call and ask.
Your cost is 60% of the price of each item and you keep 40% if your
sale is very small, up to 50% profit if your sale is large. If
you wish, we can tally and pack each seller's order individually if
your total sale is over $1,600 retail. Free freight on all orders
over $1,000 (your cost.)
Product shipped from various locations. Allow 3 weeks for
delivery.
Product requires shipping on refrigerated truck to areas in the South
where temperature is over 80°F.
We have two types of profit structure to meet your needs.... "Net Profit" and "Gross Profit."
Net Profit Program: On Sales below $7000 total retail your net profit on nonfood items is 40%. On sales over $7000 retail your profit goes to 45% and on sales over $12,000 retail your profit goes to 50%. Prepack by student is available on sales where you sell over $1600 total retail. On sales between $1600 and $8500, you can earn an additional 5% profit if you do your own order tallying and packing for sellers. In addition, we can supply a prize incentive program if you wish at no extra charge. There is no charge for shipping, handling, prepack, brochures (we supply enough for 111% of your enrollment so you have extras when you need them), parent letters (on large leagues or schoolwide programs) or the like. In short, your NET profit is the percentage shown above. You collect for the order, keep your profit, and send us a check for your cost along with your order. No muss, no fuss, no surprises, and very little work.
Gross Profit Program: Several internet fundraising companies have been offering a program that makes the profit percentage look incredibly high... 65% to 75%, BUT they add a charge for EVERYTHING except the product which is included in their advertised profit percentage. We can work with you on the same type of program if that's what you want. We charge you about 37% of retail for the product and then you pay for everything else. If you can be economical, you can save a lot. If you can do your own prepack, parent letters, collating, etc. you can save a bundle. BUT, you need to have enough ready help to do it and be willing to spend a LOT of time yourself. Typically, prepack costs you about 7%. Prizes cost you about 4%. Brochures run about $1.50 each, depending on the size of the catalog. Order forms are about 5 cents each. You send us a check for the brochures and order forms and we send them out. You then put together your parent letter and assemble packets for sellers. Your sellers take orders and collect money. You either tally up your order and send your totals along with a check for 37% of the amount or send us a check for 45% of your sale amount if we are prepacking for you. Then you order your prizes. Everything comes freight collect and you pay the truck driver when your items arrive. Of course, this is much more like the retail business method than the Net Profit program, and if you are careful, you can save, but if you make mistakes, it can cost you dearly.
We are also offering a new variable profit program based on percentage of participation. Call for details
We carry catalogs and products from several sources including the major suppliers to the industry: Wisconsin Cheeseman, Giftco, along with items from single category manufacturers such as Pine Valley Foods, You will find links to viewable copies at http://www.bobmoody.org. In addition we have several exclusive regional programs available in certain counties and states. If you have questions about our products, pricing, and programs, please call our toll-free number for additional information or email us.
Please understand that we are adding and removing suppliers all the time. New suppliers enter the industry, and we take a wait and see attitude to see how they do. Other suppliers go out of business as owners retire. Often the best thing for you is to give us a call and talk it over with us.
