To Succeed You Must Remember One Thing!
You Are NOT Selling Popcorn!
You are selling the Scouting Program, isnt this
something you already believe in?

Train Your Scouts How to Sell

• In addition to safety tips, training the Scouts
  on actually what to say at the door is very
  important. They should be able to repeat a 3-5
  sentence sales pitch to consumers in order to
  be successful.
• Knowing details about the products, pricing,
  tin designs, etc. isnt as important as being
  able to explain WHY hes raising the money.
• In advance, plan out what you feel comfortable
  with, and communicate it with your boys at the
  Kickoff several times. Have fun with it!
• A close is very helpful. For instance,
  Popcorn sales will allow me to be able to go to
  camp. Will you help me get to camp?

Basic Scout Salesmanship Training A Scouts
Appearance

• All Boys In Full Scout Uniform
• All Boys Know the Presentation
• All Boys are Courteous At All Times!
• Everyone spoken to is shown appreciation for
  taking the time to listen!

16
Basic Scout Salesmanship Training The
Presentation5 Principles to Success!

• Tell them who you are First Name Only!
• Tell them where you are from!
• Tell them what you are doing.
• Tell them what they can do for you.
• Close the sale!

17
Basic Scout Salesmanship Training The
Principles in Use.

• Hi sir, my name is _______________
• Im a cub scout with pack _________
• Were selling popcorn to help raise money for our
  pack.
• You can help us by trying some of our delicious
  popcorn.
• Youll help us, wont you?

Have the boys practice until they dont have to
think about what they are going to say.
18
Have A Blitz Day!

• Blitz Day is the best way to start a Units sale.
  It gives Scouts an opportunity to sell, to sell
  with their friends, and to get off to a good
  start. It helps Units cover their communities.
• Again, advance planning is essential.
• Know the area (map?) and set it up for the Scouts
  and parents to cover it well. Have a fun
  activity planned for everyone afterwards where
  you can communicate more details / reminders to
  all.
• Ensure Parental Involvement
• After telling Parents at the Kickoff about the
  program, prizes, goals, etc., explain that Blitz
  Day is the one time the Unit needs their
  assistance. One to two parents per street (4
  Scouts).
• Ask More Consumers.
• 82 of consumers have never been asked, 70 buy
  when asked. Consumers will support Scouting if
  asked. Parents, keep a record of those no one
  home houses.

19
Total Coverage Plan
Have a complete coverage plan beyond Blitz
Day for your neighborhood / community during
the Popcorn Sale. Again, think ahead and plan
out in advance Take a few minutes before the Unit
Kickoff to define your Units area, then, keep
track of what part(s) were covered during Blitz
Day, and push your Scouts during your Units fun
activity at the end of Blitz Day to keep
going. Lets Give Every Consumer in Our Area the
Opportunity to Support Scouting and to Support
our Unit. Youve no doubt heard, Lets give
every boy the opportunity to experience
Scouting? Communicate to your Scouts and
parents that the Popcorn sale is how your
community supports YOU! They will, if they are
asked

Things to Ponder About Selling

• Ask More Consumers!
• 7 out of 10 people buy when asked
• They believe in the value quality of our
  popcorn
• They want to support Scouting
• 81 have NOT been asked to buy popcorn
• 70 are asked by a friend or relative

If every Scout in our council averages 150 that
would mean over 420,000 back to local scouting!

What To Do NOW?
Spend Some Time to PLAN Things Out First, make
sure your Units Program is set, or determine the
costs / set your Units popcorn sales goal and
the per-Scout goals based on those costs.
Then, plan your Units Kickoff, your Blitz Day
event, and your total coverage plan. Have a
Great Unit Popcorn Kickoff Create excitement by
explaining the years program, prizes, any
additional Unit incentives, play games, etc.
Give out the sales goals, and communicate to
Parents about whats in it for them. Also,
make sure your Scouts are trained, and explain
your Blitz Day plan / details. Blitz Day Blitz
Day help your Scouts get off to a good start.
Whats your coverage plan for the community /
neighborhood, and any nearby ones where your
Scouts can sell? Keep Going to Reach
Goals Remind Scouts that consumers will support
them if they are asked because they believe in
and value Scouting and trust the Trails End
quality. HIT YOUR GOAL!
