What percentage of profit will my group receive?
The amount of profit an organization receives
will depend on the brochure and prize program selected for the fundraiser; and, in some cases, the volume of sales. Profit on our
various programs normally range from 40-50% of sales. We would be happy to discuss the profit potential of any program with you.

Do you have an on-line store?
Both our Gift Shopper and Magazine programs include an extensive on-line store where out-of-town
relatives, etc., can shop: www.genevieves.com/ ; www.aphearst.com . Your organization will receive profit for anything ordered on
your behalf, and the student will receive credit towards prizes/incentives. The on-line store is open year round. So, you can begin
and complete your sale, yet still receive profits throughout the entire year. Profit checks are processed and mailed twice a year.
We have several programs where we ship products Direct to your sellers or customers;
including Gift Shoppers, Snacks, Cookie Dough and Magazines.
In-Hand Sales: Generally, credit accounts can be set up, with 20-30 days dating, so that
you need not pay for your products until after you have completed your sale. Non-school accounts outside of our local service areamay require pre-payment by Check or Credit Card (with Paypal). We would be happy to discuss the options with you.
Pre-Collect Order-Takers: For
School accounts, payment is due 20 days from order date; all other accounts: payment with order. Since you collect in advance for
these sales, you don't expend any funds until after your sales are collected and in your bank account.
Orders will
be tallied and shipped back to our organization within 4 weeks from the time your order forms are submitted to our supplier. Please
allow extra time for deliveries just prior to Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Frozen Foods: You will be notified of your delivery
day within the week of your order submission.
All other Order-Takers: Once your orders are shipped, you will be notified
of the delivery date.

How are your frozen food products shipped?

in some case, packed with dry ice. The product will arrive frozen and should be distributed the same day the shipment is received.
If the product is not picked up by the student/parent at the end of the day, arrangements must be made for refrigerator or freezer
storage.
