Each student deserves to remember each school year for a lifetime with a yearbook.  That is why we recommend shouting it from the mountain tops when ‘Yearbooks Are On Sale!’ 

Okay, maybe not from the mountain tops, but the more times you can offer your students and parents the opportunity to order a yearbook, the more sales you will see. 

  1. Timing:  Start early in the year with your sales campaign when the excitement for the school year has just started! 
  2. Tiered Pricing: Bolster early sales by offering a discount if books are purchased by a certain date. 
  3. Back-to-School Packets:  Include an order form or information about your yearbook in the back-to-school packet handed out at back-to-school night or during the first few days of school. 
  4. Social Media Posting:  Does your school have a Facebook Page, Instagram or Twitter?  Use these tools to your advantage and post about yearbooks being on sale.  Include a direct link to your online order page in your post to really make it simple for your parents to order! 
  5. Email or Text Campaign:  Most schools collect email addresses and phone number from parents.  Your school secretary can most likely help you with sending out communication to this group.   Tip: We HIGHLY recommend this type of communication to help drive sales. 
  6. Free Marketing Materials:  Take advantage of and use the free marketing materials Inter-State Studio will send to you.  This includes order forms, posters and more! 
  7. Offer Incentives: Drive sales by offering incentives like pizza or ice cream parties to the class that has the highest percentage of yearbook sales. 
  8. School Event Nights:  Pick a few of the busiest or most popular events at your school and set up a table to sell additional books. 

Tip:  Don’t feel like you have to do all of this alone.  Ask for help! There are always parents and other faculty and staff members ready to jump in and help.  Don’t be afraid to delegate!
