Hello Consultants,

I get asked alot of questions about Tupperware Fundraisers so I am going to post them here for all of you.

#1. How much percentage does the group make? As of 9/1/04 groups now make 40% Cash and their 40% profit is immediate. They NO longer wait for a check from Tware, so they get their profit immediately when they pay you because you will ONLY pay Tupperware what is actually due.

#2. Who can have a fundraiser? Basically anyone! Even Moms can have a fundraiser to raise funds for college tuition etc. Any Group or person can basically have a fundraiser!

#3. Is sales tax charged? yes, it will be charged at the rate the consultant is located in. Example: PA is 6% sales tax.

#4. Is shipping charged? If the fundraiser is high enough ($250 or more) then its FREE shipping if the fundraiser order is shipped to ONE person. If the fundraiser is below a certain amount then shipping is charged. You can NO LONGER Ship to each customer direct with a fundraiser! All fundraiser orders must be shipped to one person...usually the fundraiser chairperson.

#5. What is the shipping Charge? If its below a set amount, then shipping is charged please see the below file on that.

#6. Are special Tupperware Fundraising Catalogs available?
Yes, you will order them in MY SALES APPLICATION, you will find them under the current sales aids list in your my.tupperware website office.

#7. How long are the fundraiser catalogs valid? They are valid for several months. For example: The new ones came out Sept. 3 and they are Valid until Jan. 2005. We only change them 2-3 times per year.

#8. Cost of catalogs? Right now you get a pack of 25 for only $2.25 (I think)

#9. Do you need to order other supplies for the fundraiser? Yes, you will want to order the Fundraiser Catalogs and also some Tupperware Bags so that the Group or Chairperson has plastic bags to sort thru and bag each customers orders. PLEASE do not use plastic grocery store bags, its unprofessional and tacky when dealing with a group fundraiser.

#10. Where do I submit Fundraiser Orders? You will submit them online just like you do for a party but for Fundraiser Orders you will flip the drop down box on your My Sales Application Welcome Screen to FUNDRAISER and make sure you process it as a FUNDRAISER and NOT a party order.

#11. Payment: Customers who buy from a fundraiser are to pay for their purchase to the group who is doing the fundraiser, that group will then pay YOU in ONE payment. NO Credit/Debit Cards are allowed from the customers.

#12. Finding Fundraiser Contacts in your Community? See my fundraiser contact list also posted in this section here on our message boards.

#13. How much does the consultant make in commission?

Lets say the group sells $1,000 in products/sales. The group would earn 40% of that $1,000 which is $400 the group would earn. You as the consultant would earn 25% in sales of the left over amount....which would be $600....example:
$1,000 - $400 = $600 so you would make 25% of $600

Now if your sales for that month are OVER $1,000 (party and fundraiser orders combined) you would get a 5% commission bonus. If your combined sales for the month are over $3,000 that month you would get a 10% commission bonus.

#14. How do you get paid? Just Like normal.

#15. Should I offer to help the group sort & bag the orders after they come in? YES, if you are local to the group, I recommend you doing that. It sets a GREAT impression for that group to come to you in the future for more fundraisers.
