How Much Money Will You Earn?
You can predict your profit almost to the dollar when you sell
Polly Pro combs. There is no risk on your part. You don't pay
for the combs until after you sell them. And any unsold combs
can be returned for full credit. Polly Pro combs sell for 980
for a pack of ten. You pay 490 per pack. This gives you a 100%
profit on the purchase price or 50% on the selling price. This
is the best profit ratio in the fund raising business.
An average group sells about 20 comb packs per member.
Combs are shipped in cartons of 72 comb packs each. The
table below will serve as a guide in helping you to order.
You can earn the money you need for scout activities easier
with Polly Pro comb packs than any other fund raising product
we know of. Why? First, combs are needed by every home
you visit. (How many homes do you know where everyone is
bald?) And people are more likely to buy an item they need,
than they are to buy a luxury or decoration. Next, Polly Pro
combs are an exceptionally good value. Each pack contains
ten (10) top quality combs made from one of the finest comb
materials available—polypropylene. These quality combs
would normally retail for from 150 to 390 each. Yet you can
sell them for less than 100 each. You are able to provide your
customers with a top quality product and a bargain at the
same time.
