  11. Cause Marketing Guidelines • Special Olympics adheres to Better Business Bureau Standard 19:http://www.bbb.org/us/standard-19/ • Clearly disclose how the charity benefits from the sale of products or services (i.e., cause-related marketing) that state or imply that a charity will benefit from a consumer sale or transaction. Such promotions should disclose, at the point of solicitation: • 1. the actual or anticipated portion of the purchase price that will benefit the charity (e.g., 5 cents will be contributed to abc charity for every xyz company product sold), 2. the duration of the campaign (e.g., the month of October), 3. any maximum or guaranteed minimum contribution amount (e.g., up to a maximum of $200,000). • To say, “net proceeds” or merely “proceeds” is not considered best practice. Under some commercial co-venturer laws, the disclosure must contain specific language.
