Make some money with wristband sales.
Popularized by the bold yellow Livestrong bands used to support Lance Armstrong's fight against cancer, rubber wristbands are now available in an almost limitless number of colors, featuring an array of meaningful terms. Due to the popularity of these wristbands, they can be a highly effective fundraising tool. By selling them as a way to meet your financial goals, you can not only earn some cash, but also draw some attention to your organization.
Instructions
1. Select a slogan. This slogan could be as simple as the name of your school or organization or as complex as a phrase that defines your mission.
2. Design your bands. Select a band color, or combination of colors, along with a font for your message.
3. Order printed bands. Select a vendor that specifically offers what you desire or can print your band at the lowest cost to increase your fundraiser profit.
4. Set a price. Consider the cost of the bands when setting your price, ensuring that they are affordable yet still profitable.
5. Select sellers. Enlist workers or students to sell the bands, or allow anyone who is interested to peddle them.
6. Market the bands. Create posters advertising your product, and place these in prominent locations to get the attention of potential buyers.
7. Sell out your product. While you can set an end date for your sale, you will make the maximum profit by offering your bands for purchase until you have no more left.
