Ticket Book Fundraiser
Your organization sells Reading Phillies ticket books and makes lots of money.  It's better then selling sandwiches, candy, or cookies, and you'll make more money.

Earning Commission
Participating organizations sell Reading Phillies ticket books containing six general admission tickets good for any 2008 home game. Your organization sells the books for $27 ($42 value - Discounted to $27). Your organization will receive $9.00 from every ticket book sold, along with a $1.00 merchandise voucher for the individual who sold the book.

How Does It Work?
The members of your organization “sell” the ticket books - all they need to do is collect the name and addresses of those people who want a book and list it on their order form. You then send the order sheets to the Reading Phillies and we take over all the hard work from there - by mailing out the ticket books, invoices and payment return envelopes to the names & addresses given to us. The Reading Phillies keep careful records of payment and send your organization $9 for every ticket book sold when we receive payment. Your organization and individual sellers will not be responsible for handling any tickets or money - It's really that easy! 

(Optional: If your organization chooses to pre-collect payment we will immediately send your fundraising leader a commission check upon receiving the money. Again, this is optional - you need not worry about money collection unless you prefer to do so).

Cool Rewards for Sellers
Your organization and sellers get something

• Four or more books sold = Receive a Reading Phillies cap
• Ten or more books sold = A VIP package (throw out a ceremonial first pitch and a autographed baseball)
• Twenty-five or more books sold = A Reading Phillies replica jersey.

Economic Model 

50 People in Your Civic Group or Other Organization. Each participant sells an average of just 5 ticket books, that’s 250 ticket books sold.

250 ticket books sold x $9 per book to your organization: Your organization receives $2,250 for the fundraiser.

500 children in your youth league, school, or other organization.

If each participant sells an average of just 3 ticket books (Many kids will sell 15 or 20 books) that’s 1,500 ticket books sold.

1,500 ticket books sold x $9 per book to your organization: Your organization receives $13,500 for the fundraiser.

Remember, we mailed out the books, mailed the invoice, collected the money, did all the hard work. Your participants simply signed people up to buy the books and you receive a check for your organization.

Optional 
You Collect the Money as You Take the Orders - and Your Organization Makes $10.00 for Every Book Sold...

You can earn additional money for your fundraising efforts simply by pre-collecting all the money for the ticket books at the time they are sold. You would then turn in the order forms with the money, and we would immediately mail the ticket books out to the people. By selecting this pre-collection option, your organization will receive $10 for every ticket book, instead of the normal $10 per ticket book when we worry about mailing the invoices and collecting the money.

By making sure all orders are pre-paid, you maximize your organizations profits - as every book is sure to be paid for. When invoicing people, there is a small percentage who fail to mail in the $27 payment. By collecting the $27 ahead of time, you guarantee receiving $10 for every ticket book sold - no invoices will go uncollected.)

The Choice is Yours - Both Methods Work Great.

• Let the Reading Phillies Worry about Collecting All The Money, Receive $9 per Ticket Book Sold
• Collect the Money at the Time You Sell the Ticket Book, Receive $10 per Ticket Book Sold.
