Doesn’t it always seem like the best things in life are the simple things? When ideas or plans get complicated and hard to understand they just never seem to perform as well as those ideas that are simple. This acronym K.I.S.S – keep it simple silly – definitely holds true for fundraising and for fundraising ideas. Groups who need help paying for things are finding that when they choose simple fundraising ideas that they raise more money with less effort in a shorter period of time than ever before.
The things that have made fundraiser ideas complicated in the past have been convoluted profit charts, hard to understand or hidden shipping costs, prize package levels, and frenzied distribution days for frozen items. It’s just too much for any one person to really keep track of and that is why we at Go Green Fundraising have worked so hard to develop some ridiculously simple and yet still high profit fundraisers.
The very best, and most simple, fundraising idea that we have is our Smencils fundraiser. Smencils are the incredibly popular pencils, in standard #2 graphite or colored versions, which are made with scented and hardened recycled newspapers. The process creates a pencil that works like any other but is totally earth friendly and a lot of fun. If you have never sold Smencils before you will be shocked at how popular they are and how quickly you will sell them.
The great thing about a simple Smencils fundraiser is that they only cost $1 which is the magic price point for fundraising items. Your group earns a flat 50% fundraising profit and never pays for shipping for your Smencils order.
What makes Smencils one of the most simple fundraising ideas is that they come packaged in buckets of 50 pencils each. The idea is that you order a bucket or 2 for each participant in your group and have them carry the buckets with them or put them on their desks for sale. This makes for an unobtrusive and non distracting way to do a fundraiser and because the item is so inexpensive people don’t feel pressured to buy anything.
That means no profit charts to figure out, no distribution day, no feelings hurt over prize packages, and no hidden shipping costs. There couldn’t be any more simple fundraising ideas than that. Smencils is especially popular for school fundraisers for these same reasons.
