Earn extra money through booth sales

• Booth sales begin November 11 and end November 20.
• Plan booth sale locations with your girls and be sure to get permission from the location’s manager.
• Submit your booth sale application online.
• Paper applications are also available on the site or at either service center.
• Pick up your products, which are conveniently selected by the council.
• After your sale, return any unsold items within two business days.
• Deposit only the amount due to the council. Keep your troop proceeds.

Follow these tips to maximize earning potential

• Make your booth irresistible by letting your creativity rule. Use a colorful tablecloth, play music, hang balloons. Whatever you think will get attention. Just be sure to follow the guidelines set by the location’s manager.
• Create large, fun posters. Be sure to say “Support Girl Scouts” and include your goal. If you’re selling product bundles, use the poster to promote the packages.
• Wear your Girl Scout identification. Not only is it a safety rule, but customers are more likely to buy from you if you’re wearing Girl Scout tees, sashes or pins.
• Promote the Gift of Caring. Decorate and clearly label a large donation box or gift bag and display a sign promoting your cause. People who may not want to buy for themselves will buy to support the military or the Monmouth/Ocean Food Bank.
• Make sure girls make the sale and answer questions, while adults only keep track of the money once change is given and the sale is complete.
