• Recognition! Watkins Products have been distributed directly to our homes since 1868!   That has made us a household name for over 8 generations!

• Variety and Selection! Over 350 individual products that appeal to all members of the family.  These top quality spices, gourmet seasonings, health and wellness items, personal care and household products are things that people need, use and offer as gifts to others every day.

• Flexibility!  You are not asking your supporters to spend additional dollars from their budget; you are only asking them to change brands.  They will not be asked to buy a case of something they don't usually purchase or something they don't really want.  There is sufficient variety in our product line to meet the needs and wants of every member of the family.

• Quality! Watkins' 100% Satisfaction Guarantee was the first of its kind in North America and assures you continual support for your programs.

• Experience! We like to say we are old because we are good; not good because we are old. Since our foundation in 1868, many service clubs, charitable organizations, teams, church and school groups have used Watkins Products to reach their fundraising goals.

• Service! Watkins makes available all the materials and support your organization needs for a successful fundraiser.

• Profit! Watkins offers your organization the opportunity to make more money.  Because you are offering products used in millions of households daily, your average order will increase over time; and so will your profit.  Your non-profit organization will earn between 19% and 33% of all orders; providing a steady stream of income once your supporters switch their shopping to Watkins products.

   

• Simplicity! Your supporters order directly from Watkins Inc. using a catalogue or a website. They can order online, by 800#, fax or mail. You don't have canvassers (a real safety concern, especially where children are involved), you collect no money, you handle no merchandise and you make no deliveries!

Let's assume that between your membership and their friends and family you can count on 500 people to support your efforts.  If each of them ordered only $30.00 worth of Watkins Products; products that they are already buying at the grocery or drug store, that would result in $15,000 in sales.  Assuming the minimum percentage of 19%; that would yield $2,850 dollars for your organization (at 33% you would have $4,950).  If this were a one-time fundraiser that would probably not be too bad!  But... Since we are talking about every day products that people use up and re-purchase, this activity could go on month after month after month!  And, satisfied members will refer others to your site so that your fundraising income would continue to rise as your support base expands!
