1. How can I take part?
There's two main ways that you can participate in our fundraising scheme:- Purchasing one of our fundraising sample packs will allow you to show your potential customers our products. We've found that this is the best way to raise money as people really do like to see what they're buying.
- If you would just prefer to hand out leaflets or put them in children's book bags you can order them from us directly, sign up to our scheme and we will send you an email with links so that you can download and print your own leaflets.
2. Who can participate?
If you work with any charity, school or nursery that needs extra funds, you can work with us to help raise money.
3. How much money can I raise?
To reflect the cost of shipping and card processing, our fundraising scheme has tiered rates:
| Order Value | Commission |
| Orders below £35 | 10% |
| Orders between £35 - £99.99 | 25% |
| Orders over £100 | 40% |
Shipping is free for orders that receive the full 40% discount. Smaller orders will attract a delivery surcharge of £1.75. Orders will be delivered using Yodel. Please note that due to a problem with orders being delivered to schools, all orders need to be delivered to a home address. This is due to a number of parcels going missing or being refused by schools.
4. How would you suggest I sold your products?
It would all depend on where you were selling them and where the group meets - if you are a group such as a nursery or toddler group, you can set out the samples with the leaflets on a table so that the parents can see them. If you are selling to parents at schools, you may wish to order more leaflets and put them in book bags. You could have the products in school for parents to come and see. You could also display the calendars and diaries at events such as sports days or fetes that you're holding. In fact any way that allows parents to see just what you're providing them. It’s very easy to sell these products to parents as every home needs a calendar or diary and its all the better if they can raise money for their favourite school, group or charity at the same time.
5. Can I add to or change my order after I've given it to you? - another person gave me an order after the deadline.
Once your order has been passed to dispatch, it cannot be altered. This is to ensure that we get orders right and on time. The day the order is placed or paid for, please phone us as we may well be able to help.
6. After I've received the orders, what do I do now?
You can call us to let us take the order over the telephone or you can post it to us with your cheque. If you need any guidance you are very welcome to phone us on 0845 6447507 or email us at info@boxhousepublishing.com You will be asked to pay us the order value less your fundraising total.
7. When will I receive my goods?
Orders will be dispatched within 4 working days of our receipt of the order. Please do remember to give us the time to fulfil your order especially if you are wanting to get your customer’s orders to them before the end of term. Very small orders will be dispatched using Royal Mail first class. Larger orders will be sent via HDNL's 48 hour or 72 hour service.
8. Can I just request leaflets and further information?
Yes. You can request our brochures by ordering them through the online store. The brochures are £3 for a pack of 20. We'd love to be able to give the brochures for free but we require a contribution towards the printing and postage cost. If you prefer you can sign up to our scheme and we will send you an email with links so that you can download and print your own Fundraising leaflets.
9. Why do I need to buy the samples?
It simply isn't possible for us to send you the starter packs for free. This allows us to give you the highest rate of commission that we possibly can. Having samples will allow people to see just what they’re buying and will probably help you to collect more sales.
10. Can I sell your products using the Fundraising Scheme even if its not for a good cause?
This scheme is to help to raise funds for charitable groups and organisations. Of course we would welcome you selling our products but if it’s not to raise funds for a group or charity, please click here for details of our Trader Scheme
