Marketing Tips and Suggestions - Tote Bags

1. How to market the Tote...

While we suggest selling 10 packs per member as an average. We know that each organization looking at the Get Ready Go Green Community Shopper Tote may sell more or less. We have included a profit calculator to assist you in determining how much you can earn.

How to market the totes will differ from group to group but here are some general guidelines.

Determine how many members are in your group, club or organization.
Determine how many packs as a goal you will set for each member.
Take into consideration that the average family will use approximately 5 totes per trip the to market
that the average family has two or more cars. Make sure there is a set in each car

Where can you sell the totes?

Your best resource is your own organization and there contacts. The GREEN movement is happening and everyone is trying to do there part to make a difference.
Your Community
Your Sponsors
Local stores within your community
Sporting Events (Friday night football)
and...

Remember every pack you sell gets you one step closer towards achieving your goals!

2. How to market the Wrapper...

The wrapper has not only been designed to hold and distribute the totes, but as a tool for you to market advertising space. 20 ad blocks measuring 3" x 2.5" are available to you to market within your community. Selling all 20 ads at $250.00 each will bring your group an additional $5,000. You may sell the ads for more or less but we suggest $250.00. (Adjust your ad cost up or down depending on how many packs you plan to market)
Before selling your ad space we want you to think about who within your community you can market this great opportunity to. Begin to think about it more in terms of a coupon rather than just an ad. Businesses will want to be associated with going green and your fundraising efforts. At the same a coupon will help return some of your sponsors advertising dollars back to there businesses.

What type of businesses can you market to? ALL OF THEM!

Here are some examples but we know you will find more once you get going.

3. How to market Sponsors...

While we designed the program to market your logo we know the main goal here is to raise money
Look at the templates we have developed (click Here). You may advertise your logo or sell the ad space on the bags. A full ad per side can yield you an additional $5,000 each and a half side ad will yield you an additional; $3000 per ad. You may choose not to do this or if you do your group can earn anywhere from $5,000 $12,000. It is your tote, your program and you decide.
Bottom line is that through the Get Ready go Green Community Shopper Tote fundraising program you have three distinct fundraising opportunities with one program
The Tote
The Wrapper
The Sponsor
By selling ad space on the bags, the ad can be designed to say XYZ Mortgage Company Supports Northside High School. Be creative and good luck.
