Welcome Non-Profit Organization

We are thankful that you have decided to use 365 Days of Celebrated & Hidden Figures African Ancestral Calendar of Events Ad Book/Calendar for your fundraiser.  One of our goals is widespread distribution of this vital and enriching information and your signing up will help us reach it.  We are presently only working to distribute in the Metropolitan Chicagoland area, as this is our test territory.  Even if you are out-of-state you can participate by getting businesses you contact by phone or letter to place an ad or listing.  Also there are many online businesses that would love to advertise in the Chicago region.

As a non-profit organization you can get your members and volunteers to solicit listings or ads on the "Ad Book" or purchase The 365 Days of Celebrated & Hidden Figures African Ancestral Calendar in bulk.  All you have to do is have a business place an order online using their credit card and insert your ID# (assigned upon registration) or your webpage and you will receive commission from all orders. We suggest that you provide members and volunteers with a stipend as an incentive for them to get lots of orders.

The "Ad Book" is 44 pages + 4 page cover, and when all of these pages are filled by your organization and others who are getting orders the calendar will be printed and distributed.  You may choose to work solely to fill-up a calendar with listings and ads solicited by your members and volunteers.  Just let us know in the comments box of your application.  We call this "an organizations custom designed ad calendar".  Don't stop with filling up just one calendar, keep on getting those listings and ads and make this a permanent fundraiser.

Once you complete your application and submit it, you can begin soliciting orders.  Just be sure to include your assigned ID# with all of your orders.  We will contact you within five to ten days to discuss payment of your earned funds.  Use this website slideshow to show potential clients some of the calendar pages or order The Legacy Calendar of Events in bulk so that each volunteer or member has one to show when presenting face-to face.

You can email me with any questions you may have.  myekafree@yahoo.com

Sincerely,
Helen L. Edmond

Welcome Independent Advertising Sales Representative/ Sole Propriertorship

Thank you for considering us as a viable product to get advertising for.  We realize that there are presently few jobs available and so we are happy when people set-up their own business.

As an "Independent Advertising Sales Representative" you will be able to earn commission on all listing and ad orders you solicit from businesses.  We are especially interested in making this opportunity available to small and medium size businesses.  One reason is that their are so many and the second is that they really need exposure at a reasonable cost.

As an "Independent Advertising Sales Representative", you will earn commission on all orders we receive from you.  All you have to do is have a business place an order online using their credit card and insert your ID# (assigned upon registration) and you will receive commission from all orders.  We pay once every three weeks after credit cards are processed.

We have endeavored to make this process as simple as possible for you.  If you are under eighteen years of age you can sign-up for our Junior Achievement Program.  You will learn how to set-up a  business, run it and earn profit.

As an "Independent Advertising Sales Representative", we do not withhold taxes (you will receive Form 1099-MISC), tell you when to work, where to work or how long to work.  We encourage you to set-up a "sole proprietorship" business using your own name.  This is the simplest business format.  You can get more information on this online.

With your own business there is no ceiling on the amount of money you can make.  There are approximately 108,000 small businesses in Cook County and the internet is awash with businesses wanting to get there advertisement out to the public in Chicago. 

As Chicago is our test region we intend to expand to other metropolitan areas shortly, so get your feet wet right here and soar in other regions as a result of your experience in connecting with small businesses.
