Making Money with Fundraiser Cookies

Obviously when you decide to do a Fundraiser to help your group reach its monetary goals, your top priority is profit.  If you can have fun while conducting your fundraiser, even better, and the best situation is when you can find an enjoyable fundraiser that will get you where you need to be financially and not bore your fundraising team to tears.  Fundraiser cookies are almost always a great idea - they're popular with people of all ages, they appeal both to supporters and to fundraising teams, and the profit margins are impressive.  If you want to make money with Cookie Dough Fundraisers, you can easily do so if you're willing to put a little effort into the preparation.

The first step is to fully understand what you're up against.  This is not a scary proposition; it just means you need to sit down ahead of time and figure out exactly how many tubs of fundraiser cookies you need to sell in order to reach your goal.  A lot has to do with how big your fundraising team is.  You'll want to choose a fundraiser that is reasonable for your team, and that won't knock you down with a big delivery cost.  You also want something that can get you to your goals within a reasonable time.  If you have a smaller fundraising team, you'll want to choose fundraiser cookies with higher profit margins and low minimums.

Sit down with a pen and paper and figure out just how many people you have on your fundraising team, and how much money you need to make total.  Divide the total by the number of people you have, and you'll start to get an idea of how many fundraiser cookies each person will need to be responsible for. Then you can start looking at fundraiser cookies ideas to see which one is right for you.
