Church Fundraising

Setting up a church fundraiser can prove to be much more of a hassle than you intended, especially if you don’t put a great deal of thought in to the product and profit margins.  Church fundraising cards make the entire process extremely simple; you get a great product that is easy to sell because of the value it offers, and the profit margins are unbelievable!  Unless you want to spend a lot of time, thought and effort to raise the funds necessary for that church project that needs to be completed, church fundraising cards are the one solution that makes good sense all the way around.

Some methods of raising money for the needs of your church will always be popular, such as bake sales and car washes.  These are relatively easy to plan, and there isn’t a lot of hard work involved – besides, these activities are usually fun for everyone involved, and allow the members of the church to socialize and enjoy themselves.  But why not be creative (and send your profits soaring) by adding church fundraising cards to the mix?  It’s pretty easy to figure out that the more methods you use to raise the funds you need, the quicker you will reach your goal.   The more useful  the product you offer and the higher perceived value to the customer, the easier your sales!

Church fundraising cards are popular today because they offer support in so many areas.  Your church’s financial needs are met, the customer gets incredible value for their money, and local merchants benefit as well.  If you try to think of any other fundraising item that offers this much benefit to the community as a whole, you would be hard pressed to think of one, because nothing beats this product for the customer or the profitability for your project.  Every item you could think of that you have tried in past years from candy bars, cookie dough, candles and jerky to catalog sales or popcorn simply don’t stack up in comparison to church fundraising cards.

Think of all of the hassles you’ve probably met with in your past fundraising efforts.  With candy bars, you have to keep up with the inventory of every person participating, not to mention carrying around the boxes can be cumbersome for small children.  With catalog sales, you have the work of keeping up with orders, sending it off, waiting for the product to arrive, sorting the orders out and only then having your crew distribute the items.  Whew!  What a load of work for what is likely not the best profit margins you could hope for.  Church fundraising cards are so easy, and the company you order them from will likely take care of most of the work for you, such as printing up professional looking cards, placing your name or logo on the front, and securing the participation of local merchants.  What’s left for you to do?  Just distribute the cards to those participating in your fundraiser and watch the sales roll in!

Another great aspect of church fundraising cards is that they are easy to sell, unlike many other products.  When people just don’t have extra money to burn, they aren’t going to let go of their money to purchase something they really don’t need.  Since these cards provide discounts and buy one get one free offers on many products, services and activities in your local area, people easily see the value.  In fact, most people will easily hand over $10 when they know they will save ten times or more that amount over the period of a year on things they would have spent their money on anyway.

Are you tired of working yourself silly trying to organize a fundraiser for your church?  Whether you keep using the tried and true strategies that you have been using for years or not, add church fundraising cards to your list of things to do.  Try them just once, and you will see why they are the top rated fundraising item of all time!
