One of the most crucial part of planning elementary school fundraisers would be choosing the best fundraising idea or product that will give you the opportunity to raise the highest amount of money that you can possibly have in a single campaign. Well, if you are stuck in this stage of your school fundraiser, allow me to present to you a nice product that will surely help you earn the money that you need and fast. The product that I am going to discuss in this article will be scented pencils or smencils.

Scented pencils or smencils are relatively new to the fundraising world, which is good proof that they will be able to raise a huge amount of interest from your prospective customers. This is one of the greatest advantages that smencils can offer you. Next to this would be the fact they are manufactured from one hundred percent recycled newspaper, which means that while you and your volunteers are selling these things out to people in your community you are getting the opportunity to help save the planet while you are raising the money that you need at the same time. Now, that is clearly a good example of hitting two birds with one stone.

Another good advantage about selling out smencils is that they will allow you to have a wider range of market of people to whom you can sell out. This would be so since you can sell out smencils to elementary school students, high school students, college students, and even adults. This means that you will have a larger number of prospective customers with these things as compared to selling out candy bars, which may only work out for kids in grade school.

Starting a smencils fundraiser is not hard and will not require you a lot of money as to the reason that the products that you will be selling out are really affordable or cheap. However, you still need to bear in mind the importance of planning out your campaign well. Planning should always be of prime importance to any fundraiser as to the reason that this will enable you to have a clear idea about the things that you and your volunteers need to achieve and the strategies that you will need to carry out so that you can achieve them. Aside from this, planning with your members will give them a pretty good idea as to why they need to act or work well to raise money for the group. You can motivate your members by informing the cause of your campaign or the reason why you need to raise money. This will let them know that they won't be just working hard for nothing. Next to planning, you also need to work on your volunteers sales script as this will serve as the key that will unlock the wallets of your prospective customers so that they will be able to give you sales. Lastly, you need to practice this with your volunteers until they get it perfectly.
