Did You Know ? There are a number of ways that girls can market & sell cookies :
Online Sales Online sales are ideal for Girl Scouts with family members living too far
away to support their cookie sales . Girl Scouts send a Smart Cookies Direct Ship eCard , via email , inviting family and friends to order cookies from her online . Cookies and shipping costs are paid online using a credit card , and the cookies are shipped directly to their home . Girl Scouts can also send the eCard to friends and family and they can select online girl delivered , because the girls know these customers can pay in person or online ahead of delivery . Girl Scouts may also send their social media link , and people the Girl Scout may not know can order either direct ship or girl delivered . If they choose girl delivered the caregiver must approve these orders and the customer must pay online using a credit card .
Direct Sales Direct sales are a great way to sell cookies that allows Girl Scouts to have
packages of cookies in-hand to sell door-to-door to family , friends , and neighbors . Girl Scouts exchange cookies and payment in one easy step .
Order Taking Girl Scouts may ask family , friends , and neighbors to help support them
by taking orders . They may go door-to-door safely in their neighborhood . They collect money at the time of delivery only and remember to write thank you notes that you include when delivering product . They can also leave a door hanger at their neighbors ’ homes which includes their order link or a QR code to direct them to make a purchase .
Booth Sales Booth sales are a great way to reach customers who might not know a
Girl Scout . These are usually a troop event scheduled by the Troop Leader or Troop Cookie Manager . Girl Scouts gather at public places ( grocery stores are popular !) to sell cookies . At booth sales , Girl Scouts work together to achieve troop and individual sales goals . Remember to always follow
safety guidelines when selling cookies !
