Posted on 04/22/2010Unlike many other types of fundraising, cookie dough comes with some options - there are several different types of fundraisers out there. Choosing the right one for you is just a matter of assessing your group's needs, checking out the available fundraisers, and making a decision based on your financial goals and the number of people you have on your fundraising team.
Although it's pretty easy fundraising, cookie dough does still require some organization, and you will have to plan things out accordingly. Regardless of which fundraiser you choose, cookie dough works as a pre-sale idea, meaning you will take orders for the products and send in the money before we ship the dough out to you.
This means that you do not have to deal with huge stocks of product - we only send you what you order. This simplifies the process greatly at distribution time, but it does mean that you'll have to have someone in charge of keeping track of orders and money, and getting everything consolidated so that you can place your overall order.
When checking out the different types of fundraising cookie dough, pay close attention to variables that may affect your final decision. Frozen cookie dough is wonderful, but of course there can be some mess involved. Dry cookie dough mix requires a little more work, but there's no mess and no freezing required. There are also different order requirements and shipping charges for each type of Cookie Dough Fundraiser, and you'll want to pay special attention to these if you have a smaller group and shipping charges are a concern.
