Why a music director should care
You did not get into this to sell cookie dough. You have a spring trip with a deposit due in January, instruments that need replacing, and a booster parent who means well. Brian has run the same two-week product sale for band, chorus and orchestra programs in North Carolina since 1994. He sets up the online store, writes the kickoff for your kids, watches the numbers and answers the phone when something is short. You run rehearsal.
Two weeks, done
Kickoff, midpoint push, finish. Scripted for the podium and the group text. Nothing after school.
Online store
Every family gets a link. Grandparents in Ohio order from their phone and it ships to them. Nobody hauls boxes into the band room.
VIP Ducks
Collectible rubber ducks and a prize program the kids track themselves. Middle schoolers chase it. High schoolers pretend not to and still do.
Spring window, booked now
Late January through March is the music-program window. Book it this week and the materials are in hand before winter break.
The number that matters to a director
Middle school band, Asheville NC
150 band kids, October 2026. The best result for its size this fall.
In sales, fall 2026
Forty North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia schools and programs, every one run from Brian's desk.
What happens when you book
- Pick a slot on Brian’s calendar. Fifteen minutes by phone or Zoom, this week or the week after the conference.
- Tell him your trip and your date. He builds the calendar backwards from the deposit.
- Get the catalog the same day. Fall and spring product lines from Giving Market, a Booster company.
- Launch in spring. Store, packets, scripts and ducks arrive before kickoff. The check arrives before the bus.
