Fete Showbags presents colourful, easy-on-the-budget confectionery show bags for fundraising. National delivery.
Q. What experience do you offer?
A. We have supplied show bags to Australia for more than 50 years. We’ve drawn on our experience to put together a line of show bags especially for school fetes. We’ve market-tested many different products to present our nine best-selling items for fundraising.
Q. Describe the product.
A. We provide a range of pre-packaged, ready-to-sell show bags that are proven sellers: favourites like Bertie Beetle, Cadbury Bites and Gummi. Every fete bag includes a novelty.
Q. How can a school fete make money on show bags?
A. We sell the bags to the school or community group for $3.50 and recommend they sell them on for $4.50-$5.00. That makes them very affordable.
Q. How can we maximise sales?
A. Promotion and display are everything. Involve children in creating a backdrop display, using blu-tac to display the contents of every bag on offer. They’ll be so proud of their efforts; they’ll drag Mum and Dad up to look (and buy).
Q. What’s your return policy?
A. We cannot take back unsold show bags so we ask groups to think carefully about quantity. It’s much better to sell out.
If some stock is left unsold after the fete, consider some of these options for offloading:
• offer in a cent auction
• sell at the school canteen
• give away as prizes for good behaviour.
Q. Have you one piece of advice for fundraising success with show bags?
A. Avoid a sticky confectionery mess by choosing a shaded – if not air-conditioned – location. A marquee can be turned into a great looking show bag stand.
