The idea of a franchise conjures up big name chains and superstores like McDonald’s, Dunkin Donuts, Pizza Hut, Dollar Tree, UPS, Circle K etc., but the daunting issue with these successful stores are the huge buy in fees ranging to one of the smallest Subway at about $80,000 to the Millions for some food chains like McDonald’s and Sonic.

To follow these successful models means shelling out that vast amount of money and not make a profit for 3-4 years in many cases. The kicker is, you still don’t have control of your business. You are a manager that has to follow corporate rules, but it will be your butt if the franchise fails.

The latest and hottest franchise is not what you may be thinking of. So many businesses and non-profit organizations are really struggling to make it as the economy is still struggling to get back on track. So, in a down economy, there are always a few businesses that benefit from the hardship.

The incentive industry is one of those that is bursting with success stories, both in the business incentive and fundraising departments. Individual franchise owners are landing contracts with big businesses and organizations who are looking for some added value to get increased sales and profits or donations.

There are so many businesses and non-profits who are looking for help with their marketing and being a franchise owner in the incentive industry means you can get in front of all these people and give them the solution to their problems.

The reason this is one of the hottest franchise opportunities right now is it is a win-win-win for the three parties involved. The business or fundraising organization are happy with their increased sales and donations. The incentive company are happy that their certificates are being sold and the franchise owners are happy they are making a profit from each and every sale.

The better news is that most of the business is repeat business. Once businesses and non-profits see that the incentives are a success, they will want to repeat the process and will look at other products and be a customer for years.

Each new client being a potential repeat customer means sales and  profits keep increasing each year. Word of mouth sales in the fundraising department especially account for a large portion of new contracts. There are no buy in fees for this opportunity which make it attractive to anyone with sales and marketing and people skills. Knowing that 10% of the population is unemployed and the market is hungry and begging for help it is easy to see why the incentive industry is the latest and hottest franchise opportunity today.

Fundraising for your non profit is getting harder as people are holding on to their hard earned money a little tighter.

In order to release that grip, your fundraiser needs to offer a reward of great value for a contribution to your cause.

Cookie dough and candy fundraisers are producing about 50% of the results they did a few years ago and consequently these huge fundraising companies are going out of business.

If you are to generate the money you need for your fundraiser, you need to find a product that has value to the donor and has a high profit return for your school, church or team.

The brand new fundraiser from The Cup Certificates has exactly that. The return product to the donor for a contribution is a $15,000 value Lifetime Travel book. The book is packed with 20 vacation packages that never expire. Vacations like All Inclusive Jamaica stay, Fly and stay Las Vegas, 2 for 1 flights and cruises and 3day/2night hotel stays are just some of the 20 collected in this Lifetime Travel Book.

This is a product your donor can get much use from and save money on travel and vacations. Travel is a $7 trillion a year industry, so this product is in high demand and your donors will be willing to share $30-$40 to get their hands on it and help your group fundraiser at the same time.

Your group will make a high profit from each book sold and these books you can sell by the hundreds to a hungry crowd.

Go have a look at all 20 vacation packages and see for yourself how you would like to get one of these books for your own use. I know I can save hundreds of dollars from the hotel stay and 2 for 1 flight alone. That is without even thinking of one of the many vacations I can take.

You can view them all at TheCupTravelfundraiser.com and sign your fundraising team up to participate.

Go check it out now before someone else in your community beats you to it.

These books are also used as business incentives, so it won’t be long until everyone has heard about them and they filter through your town.

High profit fundraising is key in this tight economy. It is getting harder to sell, so you need to try and sell a product where there is a great return for your effort. Even though many fundraising companies say you get 90% profit, you need to ask yourself on what?

Getting 90% profit on a $3 item means you make $2.70 profit. Good deal for the product you sell, but you have to do a lot of selling if you want to make any decent kind of money for your fundraising team.

On some of the higher value items, you may not make as big a percentage of the cost of the product, but as you will see from the example with The LifeTime Travel Book, you stand to make more money with less selling.

The Lifetime travel book could sell very well at $50, which is the suggested value of the book if the recipient wanted to purchase extra books directly from the company. As a fundraising team, you get to establish the donation amount you would like to ask for.

Let’s say you ask for the full price of $50. If you make 40% of that amount, you will make a profit of $20 per Lifetime Travel Book sold. That is a lot more than the $2.70 from a 90% profit box of cookies. You would have to sell seven times more product to make up for that one sale of the travel book.

Now, there is a balance to this. If the product price is too high, then you will not sell as many products. If the product price is too low, then you have to work so much harder to have a high profit fundraiser.

We have found through years of fundraising experience that a balance between the two is optimal for overall high profit fundraising.

Therefore, if you price the Lifetime travel book at $30, and still make 40% profit, there is a better chance to sell more books overall.

When you consider that each individual selling the product from your fundraising team will sell to about 5 people, you really have to look at the overall amount you make from each sale. From the examples above, the profits would return $13.50 from 5 sales of cookies at 90% profit;  $60 from 5 sales of the Travel book at $30 with 40% profit; or $100 from 5 sales of the travel book at $50 and 40% profit.

It is easy to pick which one you would think makes the most money, but remember the balance. You may average only 2-3 sales per individual when you price the product higher. Either way, it makes more sense to market a higher priced product like the lifetime travel book than it does a box of cookies.

High profit fundraising is not just about the percentage you make on each product sold. It involves the amount of money your fundraising team makes on the bottom line.
