[Nfb-fundraising] questions about selling hershey;'s candy

[Ramona Walhof]

Cheryl, candy bars can be a good fundraiser.  The important thing is that 
your members want to sell it.  Your figures show that you would be paying 
half the value that  you will sell it for.  That is good. It appears that 
your minimum order may be  a little more than 200 bars.  You should be able 
to sell that much quickly. I am guessing that if you want to sell more than 
one kind of bars, that will double your order, but if your members are 
behind the project, that should also be easy. The most important thing to 
make a successful fundraiser is that your people want to do it and will work 
on it.  Many chapters sell thousands of candy bars, but don't over commit 
the first time.  Just take a dozen or more  candy bars with you whereever 
you go.  Lots of people complain about chocolate, but most still eat it. 
Happy selling!

hi all cheryl echevarria from Long Island chapter, I need some ideas I have 
contacted hershey's for the fundraising of candy. I was wondering if people 
like this one or not, what are some that are not a lot to start up and make 
a decent profit. thanks a lot.

How did you like hershey's the company here said that the box on 52 count 
with 4 cases in it makes about 124. is that correct.
