How can a supplier offer online fundraisers to schools?
Reviewed . Read as Markdown
A supplier can use Raised to present fundraising products and manage campaigns with schools or clubs. Start with a clear offer: product details, pricing, organiser return, minimum quantities and delivery terms. Confirm operational capacity before inviting groups. Listing products does not guarantee demand or remove the supplier's fulfilment responsibilities.
What should your fundraising offer contain?
Give organisers the information needed to decide: pack sizes, delivery coverage, lead time, ordering deadline and the amount or margin the group can expect before its own expenses. Explain how payment and organiser returns work for your actual arrangement.
For food or other products with handling requirements, include current product information and storage instructions. Do not ask volunteers to infer those details from a retail website.
How do you avoid taking on more than you can fulfil?
Agree the campaign closing and dispatch dates before approval. Keep enough time for production and distribution. If several groups finish together, total quantities and route planning matter more than the number of campaign pages.
Use campaign approval and change-request workflows where applicable. A requested date change may affect other groups, so approve it only after checking capacity.
Which reports help with delivery?
Raised's wholesaler distribution report breaks product quantities down by campaign, while its quantities report aggregates demand over a date range. Use the appropriate report for each job.
- Prepare the catalogue and fulfilment terms.
- Review each group's request and dates.
- Monitor quantities before the final order deadline.
- Export campaign distribution details for packing.
- Reconcile fulfilment and the agreed organiser return.
