Personalized Book Fairs
  Online Book Fair  
 

If a lack of time or space are problems that have prevented you from hosting a book fair-- then this is the program for you!  The quality titles normally available in all our school book fairs are now available with the click of your mouse. Having a Personalized Online Book Fair also opens up your fund-raiser to your entire community. No need for a lot of volunteers, a lot of time, or even the use of a room to hold the event.

 
How does it work?
Your school can choose one of two ways to run our on-site book fair. 

1) Put a link on your school's website and earn credit for any purchases from your school over the entire year. 

2) Your school hosts our book fair by simply handing out announcement to your student body directing them to come to our site in a given time period.  You will be given a time period of two weeks --which two weeks will be up to you. When you decide the time frame be sure to keep into consideration the lag time of delivery.  The deadline is to help your procrastinators pull the trigger, but we will keep the fair open three extra days past the deadline before we ship the order out, someone always forgets. After that, they're out of luck, or they can pay for shipping themselves.

Place your orders... 
We would encourage all orders to be placed over the internet through credit card transactions thus making your job a little easier.  But not everyone is online and there are still a lot of folks uncomfortable with making purchases over the internet. In these cases we do have a hard copy order form that people can request from the book fair chairman. In these cases you would collect the cash or checks and call in the orders in at the end of the fair. Again the three day grace period gives you a chance to get the stray orders in and placed.    

Selections will include all titles in our PBF Spine-Breaker Catalogue, and any you may want to suggest prior to your fair.

...Orders arrive within two weeks
Your orders will be received within ten working days of the closing date of your online fair (after the three day grace period).  When total orders equal  three hundred dollars or more delivery to your school is free. There you will be asked to distribute your students' orders as well as any orders placed from the community at-large (the neighborhood, relatives), who indicated they would pick-up the books at the school.  A common idea is to combine the Personalized Book Fair pick-up day with your Market Day™  pick-up. Any orders not being delivered directly to your school will be subject to our regular delivery charges. 

$$$ for your school
Your profits start at a base of 20% of your total sales, with an additional 1% per $1000 ordered up to a total of 35% in profits. There is a minimum of $250 total sales over the book fair to qualify for the base 20%.  And just like all other book fair purchases, your sales are tax free for non-profit organizations.
