Ways To Coordinate A Profitable Cookie Dough Fundraiser
Schools have many fundraisers throughout the year and they can be a hassle. One type of fundraiser that can be fun and hassle free is a cookie dough fundraiser. Provided that the fundraiser is planned by a team of well organized people, it can come off without a hitch. Here are some tips to having a profitable fundraiser for the school.
Selling frozen cookie dough can be one two different ways. One way is to have volunteers donate their favorite types of cookie dough to your group for it to be sold. The other way is to buy the pre-made dough that is already packaged from a company with a great reputation. If selling the dough at fair or festival and there is going to be a booth, the booth and surrounding area must be kept clean.
If the planning committee is choosing to have people donate the cookie dough to sell, it is recommended that everyone involved knows what kind of dough they will donate. A good fundraiser will have a variety of assorted cookie dough to select from.
There are many companies that cookie dough is available from. Usually these companies have a large selection to select from. Of course, typically the most popular types are oatmeal raisin and chocolate chip. Make certain that all the dough that is sold can be frozen or refrigerated. It is a good idea to take orders in advance to be able to know the amount of dough will need to be purchased.
Setting a date for when people can expect their dough to be delivered is essential. Also, this can be the date when it can be picked up from a convenient location. If the dough is going to be purchased from a company, then it is already able to be refrigerated and frozen so that is something that will not be an issue. Cookie dough manufacturers will usually give ideas about how to make a profit off of their cookie dough and just how much dough the sale will most likely require.
Who doesn’t love cookies? Not many people. Most people don’t bake cookies because they don’t have the time. Or they don’t know how to bake the variety of cookies that they like. That is why it is recommended to have many different cookie selections to pick from. It is not a good idea to have just the basic cookies. Have fun and be creative with your selections.
Have a great selling approach so the fundraiser is fun and profitable. Be sure that the cookies can be stored for a long time because perishable products usually tend not to sell well if they cannot be stored. Sometimes, things do not go as planned. Always use cookie dough that is able to be stored for long periods of time, so that all it has to do is be thawed and baked.
It is a fact that folks are willing to have fun and help with a frozen cookie dough fundraiser to make it successful. If the planning is done well, the selling approach is well thought out, and the cookie selections vary, the frozen cookie dough fundraiser will be a great hit.
