Got a better awareness message let me know.
Why not just sell stuff specific to the Band of Pride?
Isn't that cause enough?
That's a good idea we may just use Band Of Pride. We want to use these because profits will greater the more we sell. After this, we do plan on bringing back the "Low Brass Fire Dept" shirt, for those who know what that is. The selling price for these are only $2.00. We just need the start up cash to get going. Bake sales and selling food is now banned on campus well at least bake sales are. That was a quick and easy fundraiser. As soon as we can get the start up money for it we can get going.Quote:

You said you would net $19K at $2 a pop. Then you plan on making 10,000 bracelets, correct? THAT'S ALOT OF BRACELETS! I don't think you'll sell that many. Maybe you should look into raising the price to $3 and only get 7,000. My fear is if you don't raise the price you won't make the money you need to make even if you buy 10,000. Just a suggestion.
I'm hoping we can sell one to the entire campus $2.00 isn't a lot to ask for (or so I hope). That's what the figures were based off of. We're probably gonna start out with a small order see how it goes and/or do a pre-order. That way won't have a bunch of inventory. I'm sure we can get family and friends to buy one as well as tech band members. The potential is there we just have to make it happen. We just need that little boost to get us going.Quote:

So you're considering selling a "Low Brass Fire Dept." shirt to 10,000 people? I understand the shirt theme because I was in band, but anyone outside of band wont get it; therefore won't be willing to spend even $2.00 on something that they don't/can't relate to.
If you want to sell something to thousands of people, it will need to be something they can relate to and/or understand. Something generically Louisiana Tech.
Just a thought.
P.S.-- Kudos for taking the initiative to raise some much needed funds for a worthy and necessary cause.
agreed!!!Quote:

Oh ok but yea we thought about that as well selling for that price. We have a meeting wednesday so we will finalize all that then and get back with you.Quote:

I will also post the order form on our website Friday or over the weekend. www.tubalpha.org. I will also post a photo of the proof when I get it. The price will more than likely be 3.00 or 2 for 5.00.
