Looking for a big fundraiser

18 years 2 months ago #88751 by ScottMom#1
A classroom cliker set is a buzzer type device for all students with software for teachers to ask the class questions-kind of like a classroom jeopardy game. But you can set it up to ask whatever questions you want and it compiles what students answered what questions, so you know who got it right and who got it wrong without the whole class knowing. They are awsome in helping get kids ready for tests.

The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating-in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life. --Anne Morris

Both Sally Foster & Innisbrook are good reputable companies with name recognition. They are absolutely worth looking into. For the last two years we have used Kay Pierce Fundraising
www.kaypiercefr.com/ We have done really well with them making more money each year. They are also very professional.

Daddio...
Where are you located? If you are in the Evansville, Indiana/Owensboro, Kentucky area (or within a couple hundred miles) I have a great company for you. Last year we switched from Innisbrook Wraps to Paragon Promotions, and I LOVE Paragon. Even though our profit margin is 40% instead of 50%, as it was with IW, we made more money than we had previously. Our parents liked the products better and the prices were more reasonable, so more parents could participate.

ScottMom -- What is an Instructional classroom clicker??
18 years 2 months ago #88747 by ScottMom#1
We used Cherrydale and had tons of shipping/delivery issues. I didn't care for Sally Foster as it seems pretty limited on products-mostly paper and candy. We have done really well with Kathryn Beich. They also sell Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough products-they sell really well. We are taking advantage of an offer they are currently running to get a free Instructional Classroom Clicker set. This has even exicted a lot of our teachers.

Love Sally FOster! They have different catalogs to choose from and our school has done well. The wrapping paper is well worth the money and a favorite....I mean I have a friend with a daughter in girl scouts and I buy cookies like she buys wrapping paper!
