There's something beautifully Kiwi about a sausage sizzle. The smell of sizzling snags wafting across a school field, parents chatting while they wait in line, kids with tomato sauce smeared across their faces. It's fundraising at its most authentic and community-focused-and it works brilliantly.

When you partner with Leonards for your sausage sizzle, you're choosing quality sausages that make the difference between a good fundraiser and a great one. Quality products create satisfied customers, and satisfied customers come back for more, spreading the word and boosting your sales.

Why Sausage Sizzles Create Success

• Universal Appeal: Everyone loves a good snag in bread. That universal appeal means you're never short of customers, especially when you're offering quality sausages.
• High Profit Margins: Quality sausages at wholesale prices mean you can sell at competitive rates while keeping healthy profits. The economics work beautifully.
• Community Connection: Sausage sizzles bring people together. They're social events that create positive association with your organisation, extending impact beyond just fundraising.
• Simple Organisation: Straightforward to set up and manage. You don't need complicated logistics-just quality sausages, bread, onions, sauce, and enthusiastic volunteers.

Pro Tips for Maximum Success

• Emphasise Quality: Highlight that you're using quality sausages from Leonards. Quality stories justify pricing and create customer satisfaction.
• Create Atmosphere: Play music, create a welcoming space, make it feel like a community event, not just a fundraiser. Atmosphere drives sales and creates positive association.
• Offer Variety: Consider offering different sausage types or vegetarian options. Variety increases appeal and maximises your potential customer base.
• Leverage Events: Time your sizzle with school events, sports days, or community gatherings. Event timing increases foot traffic and sales.
• Create Urgency: "Limited time only!" or "While stocks last!" creates action and prevents procrastination.
• Share the Story: Post photos and updates on social media. User-generated content creates social proof and drives more customers.

Why Sausage Sizzles Work

Sausage sizzles succeed because they combine universal appeal with community connection. Your supporters aren't just buying a product-they're participating in a community event that brings people together. The quality sausages, simple organisation, and high profit margins create a compelling proposition that makes fundraising feel rewarding for everyone involved.

The social aspect also creates lasting positive association with your organisation, extending impact far beyond the fundraiser itself. It's fundraising that feels authentic, valuable, and rewarding for everyone involved.
