Cookie Sales Notes

These are the notes from Alyssa (our Cookie Mom) Please review so we are all ready to sell cookies with the girls starting January 15th. :)
The cookies are $4 per box

Timeline:
• Cookie sales January 15th - March 20th (If the money is all in by March 10th that would be even better to get our bank account ready for the withdraw from council)
• Submit 1st set of orders on January 30th to receive cookies Feb 12-17
• Sales after that time will have cookies delivered throughout

Goals:
• 12 boxes per girl = Cookie Badge
• Girls can set higher goal on their own, but we were thinking 12 boxes per girl
• 75¢ per box goes to troop for troop activities (about 50¢ after buying badges)

Rules:
• No door to door sales alone -February 18-20, 2011
Girls begin to deliver customer cookies and participate in Walkabout weekend.
(Door-to-door sales)
• No personal checks allowed- except from our parents. Make checks payable to “Troop 1460” and put girl’s name in memo field
• Daisies must wear Girl Scout uniform when selling
• Money should not be collected until cookies are delivered
• Turn in money as it’s received and keep track of receipt provided
• Keep cookie money separate from personal money (use envelope)

Tips:
• Role play with your Daisy to ensure she’s prepared to make sales
• Make it a family affair
• Workplace sales – take order card to work or places of business with a picture of your Daisy attached to the card to make it personal
• Two order cards – Moms can carry “Pocket Card” in purse and have available at any time
