Fundraising Made Easy with Our Best Sales™ Program
We offer two great programs to help you raise money...the Best Online™ Sales Program and Best Direct™ Sales Program. For top results, you can run both programs simultaneously! Each has its own advantages, yet they both provide these valuable benefits:
- Best Price! At an affordable $15, your group will sell more Books and make a lot more money.
- Over 200 2-for-the-price-of-1 ads, plus a new Special Savings Section with exciting merchant discounts.
- Thousands of dollars in savings to the most popular dining, entertainment, and sports.
- All ads are for Metro-Memphis businesses… we don’t include “national” ads that can be printed free off the internet.
- Ads are valid longer...up to 19 months.
- Our Book gets used more often… easy to take along… fits in pocket or purse.
- Acceptance of each ad is guaranteed or it will be replaced free.
- Best Way To Do Business! We’re locally owned and operated… boost the local economy, not companies based hundreds of miles away.
CONSIDER THIS: Does your current fundraiser save your supporters money? The Best Book in Town provides family entertainment at great savings. It pays for itself after 1 or 2 uses. Your supporters will remember you, and they will be glad to hear from you next year!
