Directions
  BEFORE YOU BEGIN
  1. Get approval for your sale and share this material with any decisionmakers. Then, set a timeline and appoint people to help run the sale. For larger groups, consider having section leaders at each grade level to help organize the sale.
  2. Have a kickoff event or meeting to set goals and get excited. Begin to advertise your sale by hanging posters, displaying samples, press releases, and announcing your goals over the school PA or at sporting events or school activities. Additional samples may be purchased.
  YOUR SALE
  1. Hand out a catalog to each member along with a letter to the parents explaining your goals and reasons for the sale. Please review the order instructions on the seller Order Form with your sellers. Instruct each seller to collect payment with the order and have checks made payable to your group, not to Common Threads.
  2. Review the individual bonus program on page 10 of the catalog and set individual goals.
  3. Sellers should sell to only people they know, at school, home or parent's work.
  4. Make sure sellers are aware of your order timeline - 2 to 3 weeks is sufficient - and set a date to turn in seller order forms and money collected.
  WRAPPING IT UP
  1. Collect all order forms and money, checking to see that each seller has collected the correct amount for their orders. Record this information on your Collection Worksheet.
  2. Fill out one Group Order Form and calculate your 60% Deposit Due. Please send one check made payable to "Common Threads" with your order. Keep the remaining amount! We will calculate your actual profit and send an additional Profit Check or bill at the end of your sale.
  3. To separate order by class or grade, simply band each section together. The section name should be listed in the "Homeroom" box on the seller's Order Forms. A section must have at least 20 members.
  4. Send your order to us following the directions right on the Group Order Form! Please be aware of deadlines before the winter holidays and Earth Day.
  WHAT THEN?
  1. We will deliver your order to you within 10 business days of receipt, separated by seller, with all original order forms enclosed. If you include your e-mail address, we will update your order status for you on-line, including shipment tracking numbers.
  2. There is always renewed enthusiasm once you receive your order! Don't let these easy sales slip by. Feel free to request more supplies on your Group Order Form or simply call Customer Service 8am-8pm, Monday-Friday, EST or 1Oam-3pm EST Saturday.
  3. Please note: initial orders of less than 25 items will be charged a shipping fee.
