OMG OMG OMG is all I have to say. I just was talking with one of our branch managers who works with MANY MANY committees in her county (next to where I live, a stone's throw away), and she is EXTREMELY interested in pushing my Mia Bella for fundraisers within her community!
Including..... the United Way within her county
I have all kinds of fundraising documents, but what I'd like to know is what are those fundraising things that are for sale in the back office? Has anyone ordered them? Would anyone be willing to share their fundraising info if it may be different than what's in the back office? This lady, and I love her to pieces as a person anyway, is extremely important in her county and has TONS of connections. Successful fundraisers with her = MORE fundraisers!!
By the way, every time I pulled out another votive for her to smell, she said OOOOH Order me that one too! LOL!
I LOVE THIS BUSINESS!! smileys/smiley36.gif

What is her position exactly? It would be good to know for a contact person to look for when trying to do many fundraisers. Congrats!

The fundraiser sheets that are for sale by the company are blank on the back. I use them to print the ordering info on the back. I got a grid type thing that is helpful for ordering. I think Natalie is the one who gave it to me.Feel free to pm me and I can email you a copy.

Hi Sandy,
Girl, you are doing such a wonderful job. I am so proud of you. It is so exciting to hear that you potential could be set for a long time to go in the fundrasing dept.smileys/smiley32.gif
Like Debra said, I do have some great fundrasing forms if you would like them. Just shoot me an email or PM so I remember to send them to you when I get home!
Congrats again Sandy! Keep up the wonderful work!
Continued Blessings,
Natalie

I really did luck out with her and I'm keeping my fingers crossed still.
Margey, I will try to find out her position, the county itself is a fairly small county, however it's a verywealthy county due to something that happened a long time ago when a newdrink product was beingintroduced and the townspeople belived in it and bought stock in the company. The little drink company is Coca-Cola lol.
She is just very heavily involved in all kinds of boards and committeesso I was really expecting her to mention some of the smaller ones she works with. You could have knocked me over with a feather when she said that county's United Way. After she left, I calmly walked into my office and performed the crazy happy dance smileys/smiley36.gif
It sounds like those forms are just perfect for what I need, it gives a very professional look to the orders! I will definitely be keeping them on hand!
I'm just still in shock. Nothing is a done deal, obviously, but knowing her as I do, I know there will be a fundraiser guaranteed somewhere.... a huge foot in the door for me! I've got brochures coming in my next order and will be sending those along to her and I've already given her some of the fundraiser info including the profit chart they can make with their organization.
