2. "5% of sales will go to support my channel". I feel like maybe she was looking for a way to get more money for the channel, reached out to the candle company and had to include the school to make it look more legit?
THIS is my main point of contention. Is it a collab or a fundraiser? You can't have both without looking disingenuous.
If you wanna do a collab, do a collab. (Even if you have to go begging for someone to do it with you
).
If you wanna do a fundraiser, do a fundraiser. You are not (and your collaborater is not) a massive brand who will make millions of dollars for the charity/school even if they're still taking the lion's share of the profits for themselves. And it's bad enough when they try to justify making money off a charity venture even though they are potentially making a huge donation at the end. It just makes you as a relatively normal person look greedy tbh (like those arses who decide to do a sponsored bike ride to China.... and pay for their travel and hotel costs out of the donations.....). Why can't you give ALL your cut to the school Jen?
Cause you wanna make money. Nothing wrong with that- but don't use a worthwhile cause to encourage people to buy shit so YOU can earn cash.
