Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between using paper orders forms and the tracking application.
With paper order forms, sellers record orders by hand and the organization must manually collect, total, and verify every order before submitting them. The Sales Tracking Application digitizes this process by allowing orders to be recorded in real time, reducing paperwork and errors while giving organizers instant access to sales progress and reports throughout the fundraiser.
What is the difference between Local Pre-Sell & Direct to Door
Bedsheet Fundraising offers two different fundraising models: Local Pre-Sell and Direct-to-Door. With a Local Pre-Sell fundraiser, sellers promote products locally, collect customer orders and payments, and submit one combined order for the group. Products are then shipped together to the organization, which distributes them to customers. This traditional fundraising model allows groups to maximize their earnings by purchasing products at wholesale pricing and typically provides a higher profit per item sold. With Direct-to-Door fundraising, sellers share a custom online fundraising link with friends, family, and supporters. Customers place their orders directly online, and products are shipped individually to their homes. This model eliminates the need for the organization to collect orders, manage payments, store inventory, or distribute products, making it ideal for reaching supporters beyond the local community or running a fully online fundraiser.
