We sold cookbooks, journals, scrapbooks & cards from www.schoolmate.com/ . It went well and the profit was 50%. They also have other things to sell on the site. You can get a free sample kit before you decide to sell.

There is a new program that's been working extremely well -- it's called the Pop 'n Print ebook series. It's a collection of ebooks that are perfect for family bonding. Good, clean, All American fun. There are four in the series -- they all have "101" activities or games. For example, one of them is "101 Activities for a Sunny Day". They are designed to keep the family together, but away from the TV, still having fun. The ebooks cost $10 a unit and you keep anywhere from $5 to $6. Check it out...

What companies have other groups used and what did you think of them?

How many students do you have in your school? The most profit you can get is 50% of your sales so you would have to sell 80K to make 40K. I have only ever seen two companies offer more than 50% but they charged for the brochures and the shipping so ultimately that was taking a chunk out of what they were claiming to give you 55%-%60 profit.
