Joyful Designs in Soy Candle Fundraiser Information

We do offer fundraisers for groups, clubs, sports teams, 4-H, etc. Currently, we only offer to those within driving distance of Skagit County Washington, due to the cost of shipping. However this is negotiable, ask if interested! If the group were outside of Skagit County, we would meet the group�s point of contact person at a destination halfway between us for delivery of product.

The organization will receive between 35-40% (depending on the product) of the total sales.

We would feature 10 different fragrances, the group�s organizer and Joyful Designs in Soy can together figure out which 10 to carry, also with consideration of the season of year being a factor. We pour a sample �sniffie� of each of those 10 fragrances for each participant to have as a sales aid, provided free to the group. We�ve found when potential customers can actually smell the scent, sales are better. We also provide sales receipts, a brochure to show customers, and master spreadsheets for easy tallying of total orders. Participants take orders and collect funds from customers. The funds are due to Joyful Designs in Soy at the time of delivery. Our goal is to make this process as simple, and straight forward as possible for both the organization, and us.

It is customary to allow 2-4 weeks for selling time for the group. After this sales time ends, please allow 4-5 weeks delivery. Our goal is to deliver much sooner than this, but this is the outside time frame we need, as the amount of candles needing to be poured, can vary widely. Also, we can only book a certain number of fundraisers throughout the year, so please contact us for availability. For a holiday fundraiser for instance, be sure to allow enough time for delivery and sales timeframe.

We make a custom label for the group at no extra charge. It features our standard information, as well as a �thank you for supporting your local club.� Of course, that will say the group�s name or project for which the funds are being raised.

Joyful Designs in Soy will also bag each order so the group won�t have to do this. We do this through good communication with the group�s point of contact person. Once the candles have been delivered to the organization, all they need to do is pass the candles (by bagged order), to each participant for their sales. Those participants then deliver to each customer. It is our goal to minimize the work the organization has to do.

Testimonial about Joyful Designs in Soy
By: Tammy Edwards and Josh King
Teachers at Chrysalis School

This year was our first experience performing fundraisers for our school's
yearbook. We were introduced to Joyful Designs in Soy and Valerie through a former co-worker. After the initial uncertainty whether selling candles would be beneficial to our fundraising efforts, we called Valerie with a lot of questions. She was very patient with our concerns. She answered all of our questions and offered us the best deal we have had so far in raising money.

After the students chose the scents, Valerie took time to look over the list and offer us some alterative choices so that we might reach a wider
audience. Her selections, based on the season when we were selling candles, helped increased our sales.

The package we received from Valerie was amazingly well organized. She had individual zip-lock bags with the 10 scents clearly labeled. The packets she made for each student included a tri-fold brochure explaining the candles, what was being sold, short statement about the purpose of the fundraiser, plenty of order forms, and a master order form list so students could keep track of what they sold and how much money they raised.

Valerie was very helpful every step of the way during the fundraiser. She was in contact with us every week, by e-mail or phone calls. She was even willing to extend the sale by letting the students turn in orders during the final fundraising week.

Valerie's organizational skills were evident when she brought the candles to us. She had each order in a bag with both the student's name and the purchaser. She even threw in tea lights for each order to provide a more fulfilling experience in the world of scented soy candles. As a finishing touch, Valerie made special labels for each candle thanking the customer for supporting our yearbook fundraising efforts, at no extra charge! Our school was able to sell 92 candles. This fundraiser came in second in terms of the amount of money raised for the yearbook.

We are looking forward to using Joyful Designs in Soy fundraisers twice next school year. We would recommend this talented woman to any school for fundraising efforts.

Sincerely,
