How does companies donating profits to charities affect your purchasing?

Asked by Spargett (5395points) July 7th, 2008

How much of an influence does it have when a company donates more than 10% percent of profits towards related charities?

I have a company I’m starting and I’d really like to donate 10% at the start of our annual or quarterly profits towards charities related to the demographic. My business partner thinks thats absurd.

I really don’t feel like 10% is much, and besides, I think it’ll help people purchase more, which isn’t my motive, but may help convince my business partner otherwise.

What are your thoughts on this hypothetical scenario?
