Why should we choose to do a personalized jewelry fundraiser?

1. Sellers and buyers are tired of the same old fundraisers. We’ve got the solution.
2. Higher revenue potential. Name jewelry is a great and meaningful gift for any occasion and for people of any age. People will not only buy to support your cause (why else would they overpay for a candy bar or buy a product they don’t really need?) but because they actually want it! In fact, they can stock up on gifts for birthdays, graduations, anniversaries and holidays!
3. Affordability. Our name jewelry is very reasonably priced.

What type of fundraising programs do you offer?

We offer 2 programs and you can use one or both at the same time.

1. Our traditional fundraiser is for your sellers to either call, e-mail or go door--to-door taking orders from family, friends and neighbors.
2. Our online affiliate program fundraiser simply requires you to complete a very short form on our website and you’ll receive a code to put on your groups or institution’s website and/or in the body of your e-mails. Ask students, staff, members and friends to send out e-mails with the link. When anyone clicks on the link it will take them to wow-imports.com and if they make a purchase of ANY item from our website you will receive a % of the sale without exerting any energy! We will deal directly with the customer and ship their purchase to them and your commission will be sent to you. Please visit wow-imports.com/affiliate.asp for details.

What are the advantages of the online program?

1. You will make money with a minimal investment of time and energy.
2. This program runs long term. Anyone who visits our site via your link and makes a purchase from us will be credited to you for 5 years as long as they have not deleted the “cookies” stored on their computer.
3. In addition to getting a % of personalized jewelry sales you will also get a % of sales from our other amazing handmade products.
4. A traditional fundraiser limits you to those people your sellers can reach. The online program enables you to sell around the world!

Can we run a dual fundraiser using your traditional and online program?

Yes, in fact we recommend it. This way you can fundraise from local people and from friends and family who are out of reach. Simply send them an e-mail with the affiliate link telling them about your group/cause and fundraiser and ask them to visit our site and consider making a purchase to support your group/cause.

Alternatively, you do have the option to e-mail a PDF file of our brochure to people who can’t be solicited in person but this may be inconvenient as they will have to mail their order and payment to you and then you’d have to mail their purchase to them. If you can accept credit card payment by phone, this may be a more attractive option for you.

What is our % of sales?

Your % of sales for the traditional fundraiser is:

• $1-1999 - 25%
• $2000+ - 30%

Online sales:

• $1-499 – 10%
• $500-999 – 12%
• $1000+ - 15%

We have seen fundraisers that offer higher %. Why do you offer a maximum of 30%?

Our retail prices are very reasonable. We have not inflated our prices at the expense of your customers to enable us to offer you a more attractive %.

The people you sell to receive a beautiful and valuable product at a very fair price.

Additionally, our price point ranges from $22 - $100+ so while our % may be slightly lower your profit per piece sold will be many times that of most of the standard product fundraisers.

Do you provide samples?

We will lend you some samples in silver so you can see the size and quality. You can let potential buyers know that samples are available to look at your school office or the like. Upon completion of your fundraiser the samples are to be returned together with payment and the order forms.

Do you offer an incentive program?

The 3 top sellers will receive a personalized silver necklace valued at up to $27. If sales reach $2000 we will give a necklace to the top 5 sellers.

Do you provide print material?

We provide professional full color catalogs and order forms. In addition, we can provide the brochure in a PDF file. Please bear in mind that printing is costly so please request a realistic number of brochures.

Each order is copied on 2 forms, one for your records and the 2nd to be sent to us. Due to the number of variables and the risk of misspellings we don’t have you transfer the orders to master forms.

Is your traditional fundraiser easy to run?

Yes! We provide full color brochures and order forms and your volunteers take orders, collect payment and submit it to you. The orders are either hand or photocopied and you keep one set and send the 2nd set to us with payment, left over materials and samples. You can also e-mail the brochure and take orders by e-mail, fax or phone.

Do you have a minimum?

No

Is there are charge for shipping the products to us?

There is a flat $25 charge whether we send you 50 or 500 pieces

Is there any cost to participate in your fundraising program?

No

How long do you recommend the fundraiser lasts for?

It is generally recommended that product fundraisers last for 2 weeks. Profits from our online affiliate fundraiser can continue for a few years!

How long does it take to process our orders once you will have received payment?

Upon receiving payment we will promptly confirm the total, clarify any questions we may have then process the order. We expect orders to be made, marked and packaged in 2-3 weeks depending on the number of orders received. Express shipping will take 3-5 business days.

What if a name is misspelled or a necklace or ring is damaged?

We will correct or exchange personalized jewelry (subject to terms) within approximately 3 weeks after receiving the return and will send it directly to the customer. We do not offer refunds. Here are our terms:

Name spelling:

We will generally contact you if we have a concern about the spelling provided. We prefer that you provide the spelling of foreign language names or you can request our assistance with their spelling. If a mistake is made on your part or the spelling we suggested at your request turns out not to be what you wanted we do not accept responsibility.

Name necklace Thickness:

Names over 7 characters must be ordered in double thickness when offered.

Exchange Policy:

Items purchased via our affiliate program are subject to the terms as stated on our website. The same is true for name jewelry purchased via our traditional fundraiser other than the fact that we must be informed of problems within 21 days and, if requested, receive the jewelry within 30 days of receipt. We may request that a digital image is sent instead. Please contact us before returning a necklace. In some cases a little silver polish will solve the problem or the problem may not warrant an exchange.

Any approved returns are to be sent to:

• Wow! Imports
• 3265 N. 52nd street
• Milwaukee, WI 53216

Personalized jewelry will be exchanged if we did not spell the name as provided to us. Additionally, if there is a clear fault (such as obvious scratching or rough edges) we reserve the right to correct it. If this is not possible it will be replaced. Please consider that each piece is hand made, without machinery and while our jewelers are the best, largest and most experienced and their work is cherished worldwide some flexibility is required by the customer to allow for hardly detectable human imperfection.

Our jeweler scores various lines on the surface of the name pendants to demarcate the point where 2 letters meet so the letters are more easily identifiable. These markings are at his discretion and will not be considered a fault.

There may be tiny natural "scratches" on the surface of silver and may be visible if carefully scrutinized from close up or by holding them to the light at the right angle. These will not be considered faults.

Due to the handcrafted nature of our name jewelry the styles may vary slightly from the images and will not be considered a fault.

What is the quality of your jewelry?

Our jeweler is one of the originators of name jewelry. They started making name jewelry at least 40 years ago and today are likely the largest seller of name jewelry worldwide. Their top jeweler works for us, almost exclusively, and they make an exclusive line of jewelry for us, that will not be found elsewhere!

Each piece is hand cut from sterling silver or 14k gold and professionally polished.

We offer the largest selection of name jewelry! In addition to the pieces shown, we have many more on our website and also accept custom orders. We do name jewelry with logos of sports teams, musical instruments, religious symbols, etc.

Our jewelry is not made with cheap foreign labor!

Are your retail prices competitive with other sources?

We believe our name jewelry is the best priced on the market, whether online or in retail stores. Feel free to check around to confirm. We offer both silver and gold jewelry to meet anyone’s budget.

Do you recommend sending children door to door?

As we all know times have changed from when we were kids. You’ll have to decide if it is okay for children to go door to door without parental guidance. We would recommend that an adult accompany children, particularly under the age of 15/16 both for their safety and to make sure sales go smoothly. If you do permit your teen to sell door to door on their own we do suggest s/he does so with a friend and informs you of their route and has a cell phone handy to call if they need assistance.

Are you available to answer questions and provide assistance?

Yes! We promptly reply to e-mails and can be reached by phone during normal business hours. Our phone details can be found on the top of our website.

What are the payment terms?

Upon completion of the fundraiser you tally up the orders, take off your % and either mail us a check (preferred) or make payment by credit card or via Paypal. We will review the total and if there is a discrepancy to your advantage we will refund you and if we are underpaid, the difference will be requested from you. If a buyer is over/under charged by one of your volunteers it will be your responsibility to correct it.

How do you package orders?

Each piece of name jewelry is individually packaged in its own gift bag. Each customer’s jewelry will be marked with their name and if they bought more than one piece they will be kept together.

Orders can be separated by the sellers name and/or classroom, troop number or the like.
