Now you need to pick your fundraiser product - do you want same product that every school sells at same time? The wrapping paper that is sold by thousands of kids in your area? Or do you want to try a fresh approach and offer people something different? Many schools and organizations are having great successes with long distance and cell phone products - which offer savings to buyer, and brings in residual income to group. This type of program can end up on auto-pilot, per se, because as customers build up, so do funds coming in. Monthly income programs with automatic payment option can be very lucrative. People are more willing to make a service switch if they are approached by a fundraiser, rather than a telemarketer or stranger. Phone services are products with a daily need - people always need this, so it's easier to sell. There are shopping programs in which people have total flexibility to choose their products, and can shop there again and again after fundraiser period is over. This is one that is set up for Internet - so they will have access at all times to shopping. Boy Scout troops and other organizations are having great response to these. Think of possibilities, and get started, at least with your strategy. For more information and programs to look at, go to http://doubleii.com/fundraising.html
