Profit Comparisons - Tom-Wat Fundraising

In order to make the fundraising process easier for you, we’ve broken down the profit details for each of our fundraising programs by number of participants and sales, so you can make the best decision for the size of your group. Please feel free to contact us directly at 800.243.9250 to speak with a professional who can go through the numbers with you.

We recommend a selling period of 2 weeks for all fundraisers

Magazine Subscription Fundraising Catalog

Recommended for all types of groups both large and small.
No order minimums, free shipping, and guaranteed 50% profit.

Number of Participants	Average Sales Per Participant	Average Profit Per Participant	Average Group Profit	Average Time Spent By Person In Charge
1	$120	$60	$60	1 Hour*
10	$120	$60	$600	1 Hour*
25	$120	$60	$1,500	1 Hour*
50	$120	$60	$3,000	1 Hour*
100	$120	$60	$6,000	1 Hour*
200	$120	$60	$12,000	1 Hour*

* 1 hour of administrative time is a realistic estimate. Essentially, all the group leader needs to do is to order the catalogs, hand them out to the participants, remind them a few times over the course of the sale when order forms are due, collect the order forms and then mail the order forms back to us in a pre-addressed, prepaid envelope. Tom-Wat Fundraisers will then ship the magazine subscription vouchers to the group leader. Each participant (seller) will have a package with their name on it that the group leader just hands out. It’s that easy!
