Mrs. Candles® is proud to
offer an outstanding opportunity for your organization the potential to
earn 100%
with...PREMIUM
HAND POURED CANDLES!
Spirit Candles
Spirit Candles are the newest addition to the
Mrs. Candles program. These come in your organization's colors.
Each candle is a single fragrance. These shown below were used for
the local Little League Football team and then again for that school's
Homecoming events. Not only did parents enjoy the candles but so
did many students who wanted to commemorate there experience.
The typical fund-raiser these days involves wrapping paper,
candy or other food items. However, by offering something
"New & Different" your sellers will stand out in the crowd of others that are
selling traditional products. Hand-Made Candles are quickly becoming the
"Gift of Choice" by many organizations because the products are easy to
sell, and the rewards greatly exceed those of the traditional
fund-raisers. Our candles are triple-scented, burn evenly, long lasting,
and affordably priced. We offer your organization 40-50% of the total
sales. Our Country Collection candles earn 40% of the total sales,
whereas our Classic Collection earns 50% of the total sales. An average fund-raiser involving 20 participants that sell 25
candles each is about $2000 Profit! It is so simple! These Fundraising
Programs can be used anywhere in the country. For those of you who
prefer not to run the typical fundraising program, have you thought
about setting up a "store" at an event? Many times this is an effective
way of reaching a group of people that otherwise would be missed.

HOW WE
DO A FUNDRAISER
When you
decide to let Mrs. Candles® help your organization raise funds we take
the guess work out of what comes next. We will provide the sales
materials, including full color brochures, and samples if required at
discounted pricing. The forms come ready to use, as we like to keep our
fund-raiser as easy for you as possible. In addition to the brochure, we
suggest that you include information concerning your fundraising effort.
This ensures sellers and parents understand when the sale starts, when
the sale ends, when the order forms and money need to be turned back in
to leader, incentives and delivery date and time for pick up. The more
your supporters know about your organization and Mrs. Candles®, the more
comfortable they will feel ordering.
If you
wish, you may purchase a sampler set of our candles for display. We
offer sampler sets of both packages at a discounted cost. The Country
Sampler is offered at $20, plus shipping. This includes two (2) 12oz
Country Jelly, two (2) 8oz Country Jelly and six (6) 4oz Country Jelly.
We offer the Classic Sampler for $30, plus shipping. This includes five
(5) each of the 10oz Terrace and 9oz Hexagon. You will find that you
will get many more orders when you have the items to display. This
allows people to view the candle sizes, colors, packaging, and of course
to smell! Since our candles are in glassware, it could prove dangerous
to carry samples. We suggest that the sellers (or parents of the sellers
if they are children) view the samples so they may help their friends
and family choose the candle that they would enjoy.
We allow
two weeks for sellers to take orders. All funds should be collected at
time of order, and are the responsibility of the seller and/or the
seller's parent(s). Sellers are given three days to give orders and
money to the fundraising coordinator. All orders must received by the
turn in date to receive proper credit and delivery. Use our Tally
Sheet (provided in your packet) to total your product order as well as
your percentage of the total sales. Please do not send us the
original order forms.
EARNING POTENTIAL
The best advise is for your organization to set a
profit goal. (How much money do you need?)
Too many organizations never know how much money they
need and then hope for the best.
The
average profit you will be earning is
$4.00 per candle. (Some candles are $7.00 profit.)
A plan of action will make your fund-raiser a success.
Let each seller know how many candles he/she needs to sell to reach the Goal and
then reward them for reaching it.
An average order is generally around 10 candles per
seller, however there will of course be orders that come in lower or higher. For
example, if you have just 100 sellers with an average of 10 candles per seller,
that would be 1000 candles. That would net your organization $4000-$8000 profit
depending on which program and size of candles that are sold! You have the
potential to make an incredible profit with more sellers or even a small team of
highly motivated sellers.
RECEIVING YOUR
CANDLES
It just keeps getting easier! When you have placed your
order you will be given an Estimated Date of Delivery. This date is usually 2-3
weeks after the order is finalized. You receive your candles via Airborne
Express if you are outside our delivery area. We pay shipping on all order
over $1000. That is right, we pay the
shipping! A fundraising consultant will contact you to explain all details of "How To"
run a successful candle sale. Your order will arrive in bulk for easy sorting of
each seller's order.
Let us help you attain
your fund-raising goal. Your success is our success.
