How the nuts fall

On average, 60% of the cost of each product sold goes back to Girl Scouting and Girl Scouts in Ocean and Monmouth counties.

Pie Chart of Expenses

2009 Proceed Structure

Service Units

Service Units earn a set amount of money per troop, based on total troop participation. Service Units with an 80 percent troop participation rate will receive $16 per participating troop. Those with a 90 percent participation rate will receive $18 per troop. Service Units with 100 percent participation will receive $20 per troop.

Troops

Troops earn financial incentives based on the per girl average of items sold in the troop. Troops will earn 65 cents per nut item sold if the troop average is 1-35 nut items sold. The incentive increases to 75 cents per nut item sold when the average items sold per girl increases to more than 35 nut items sold.

Magazines

Magazine sales are a great way for troops to increase money earned and reach goals. Troops will receive two dollars for every magazine order placed by a girl in the troop. They will also receive three dollars for every completed QSP address book submitted by the troop.

Bonus OpportunityNew!!!

Every toop that participates in both the Nut Sale and the Cookie Sale will earn an additional five cents per nut item. This bonus will be issued after the troop's initial cookie order is submitted.
