Weekly
– Bi-weekly or Monthly Prepaid Orders
A
committee should be formed to run the Manna program. This committee will be responsible for the weekly, bi-weekly,
monthly sales of the gift certificates. The
responsibilities of this committee is as follows:
1) Distribute order form/envelopes for sales
2) Set up day/time for the orders to be returned
3) Tabulate all orders and make sure payment is
correct and included
(Checks
are made payable direct to your organization for the total
dollar amount ordered)
4) Call in orders to Manna with totals for each store
needed
5) Deposit checks into organizations bank account and
request check made
payable
to The Manna Group for discounted amount due.
Check must be
available
to driver when order is delivered.
6) Receive order from Manna and always check if
correct. Our order form will
show
all serial numbers included in your order.
Please call office immediately
if
an error is present.
7) Distribute orders back to families – either
through school or pick up at
designated
locations. (Put next weeks order form or envelope with current
order.
8) All communications with your participants such as
new stores, backorders,
stores
no longer available is the responsibility of the committee.
The
size of your committee would depend on the volume of sales.
If would be recommended that a few people be involved and share the
responsibilities listed above.
Inventory
Orders/Cash N Carry
Another way
of ordering from The Manna Group is to carry an inventory to offer throughout
the week for sale on a cash and carry basis.
You can order according to what your organization feels sells the best
for your location and needs.
An
incentive to get involvement in the Manna program is to offer your school
families or club participants a tuition reimbursement.
Schools and organizations offer half or all of the discounts offered to
be deducted from your monthly tuitions or fees. Depending on how much you purchase decides on the amount of
your deduction. There are two
computer programs available through organizations using the Manna program that
have been developed to keep track of the reimbursement accounts.
The Manna Group does not promote either program but would be happy to
supply you with their phone numbers if you would be interested in purchasing a
computer program.
