Pro Tips for Maximum Success

• Leverage the Track Record: Emphasise Original Foods' long history of successful fundraisers. Proven success creates trust and removes purchase barriers.
• Create Variety Displays: If possible, showcase different products at school events. Visual variety drives impulse purchases and increases average order size.
• Emphasise Quality: Highlight the quality ingredients and care that goes into every product. Quality stories justify pricing and create emotional connection.
• Create Bundles: Offer themed bundles or variety packs. Bundles increase average order size and make decision-making easier.
• Leverage Local Pride: Emphasise the New Zealand business aspect and support for local companies. Local connection creates emotional resonance.
• Create Urgency: Set clear order deadlines and remind supporters regularly. Limited-time opportunities create action and prevent procrastination.

Why Quality Product Fundraisers Work

Quality product fundraisers succeed because they offer genuine value. Your supporters aren't just donating-they're purchasing products they want and will enjoy. The quality ingredients, proven track record, and wide appeal create a compelling proposition that makes selling easier and increases average order values.

The retail-ready convenience also removes barriers, making it easy for supporters to purchase and enjoy. It's fundraising that feels valuable, meaningful, and rewarding for everyone involved.
