Best Methods
PLAN, COMMUNICATE, EXCITE, PREPARE
Set up Show & Sell locations, dates, and times NOW
High traffic, high visibility
Teach your Scouts the Michael Beck sales method
Make it a game; have fun
Hold a unit kick-off
Go for visibility and fun (a park, a pool, etc…)
Offer prizes
Share sales goals and the unit calendar so parents and Scouts know what
to look forward to and what to work for
Offer weekly “prizes” for sales
Perhaps a top selling patrol can earn a free dish washing by the
adults at the next campout or a top selling den can earn ice cream
at their next meeting
Offering up “sweat equity” from the adults is highly motivating to
older Scouts!
On a Blitz Day, offer dollar store prizes for each 10 no’s that a Scout
receives. Even a no is good practice and a prize will keep them going.
Know the prizes and talk about them often. That’s what the Scouts want!
Help them turn in proper paperwork for instant recognition prizes as
soon as possible.
Use all the marketing tools available on the council website and the
CAMP MASTERS website
Join the Circle Ten Council Popcorn Facebook group to share ideas, learn
new ideas, share pictures, and swap products

Sales Summary
Phases of the Sale
Show & Sell

$150 in Show & Sell.

parent or buddy, with order form in hand. The customer writes their
order on the form and the Scout returns before Thanksgiving to deliver
the product. It is recommended that payment be collected when the
order is placed. Leave a receipt that provides contact information and
an estimated delivery date.
A Scout can earn the Take Order rocker of the 5-piece patch by selling
$150 in Take Order.
Online
A Scout can send email to family and friends anywhere, with a direct
link to order popcorn and give the Scout the sale credit.
A Scout can earn the Online rocker of the 5-piece patch by selling $150

Final Payment
Hopefully, your Scouts collected money upfront, but if they have to pick
up payment as they deliver, please set a deadline so you do not miss the
unit payment deadline:
NOVEMBER 18, 2016
We encourage you to write ONE (1) check payable to “Circle Ten
Council” for your popcorn payment.
Checks made out to your unit should be deposited into your bank
account ahead of time.
Multiple checks and lots of cash take up time at the counter on the payment
deadline day and can cause long lines and wait times.
Money can be deposited into your unit account at the council offices
during the sale to reduce the amount of cash and checks on hand. Then
you can quickly make a unit account payment for your popcorn.
Avoid the lines—pay early—in person or by mail!
Payments must be postmarked by November 18th. DO NOT send cash
through the mail!
Full payments due November 18th. Commission is reduced
after that.
Your Scouts and families worked hard. Don’t lose out on their
hard work by paying late.

Fund Your Adventure
1. Brainstorm
Have discussions within your unit about all the things you want to do
this year in your program. Be sure to think about activities,
advancements, supplies, helping out families in need, and
celebrations (Blue and Gold or Courts of Honor)
2. Plan
Planning the unit’s yearly program around a budget and in
conjunction with your unit committee demonstrates just how much it
costs to provide a great program.
3. Budget
Use the Fund Your Adventure worksheet (found at
circleten.org/popcorn) to help establish your unit’s budget.
4. Set Goal
Both the unit and the Scouts need goals. The unit can plan the annual
program around the sale. A great sale helps enable a great program.
Planning and explaining the benefits of the Scouts’ goals motivates
both the youth and parents. Scouts who set goals sell 2.6 times more
than those with no goals.
5. Communicate
Lead with enthusiasm.
Communicate effectively—Make sure Scouts and families
understand the popcorn sales plan.
Educate parents of the direct benefits to them—i.e. Johnny sells $x
amount in popcorn and he gets to go to camp...without the family
having to open their checkbook.
Set up your Scouts for SUCCESS!

Sales Pitch
Remember
Everyone sells everyday
We can only sell what we truly believe
TIPS
All Scouts in official BSA field unitform (neat and shirts tucked in)
Know the script
A Scout is courteous
Keep area clean and unobstructed (no tables or chairs)
Motion creates EMOTION Energy = ENTHUSIASM
Maintain eye contact
5 Principles
1. Who are you?
2. Where are you from?
3. What are you doing?
4. What can they do for you?
5. Close the sale
To succeed you must
remember one thing!
You are NOT selling
popcorn!!!
You are selling the Scouting program and you already believe in that!

Unit Kickoff
A successful popcorn kickoff is the single most important part of your
popcorn sale!
Keep it FUN! Keep it MOVING! Keep it SHORT!
5 Steps for a Successful Kickoff
1. The objective is to get Scouts excited about what they can earn
and to get the parents informed about why they should sell.
2. Preview the upcoming Scouting program and explain to the
families how the entire program can be funded with one
fundraiser. Communicate the per Scout popcorn sales goal.
Unveil the unit’s goal poster.
3. Explain the different sales methods (and the incentives for using
each method) to be used to reach the sales goal.
4. Have families write down the dates for the Blitz Weekends.
5. Show Scouts what they can earn for selling popcorn. Review the
popcorn prize program.
6. Do a skit or fun activity to get the boys trained with a sales pitch
and to get them excited about the sale. Be sure to teach them
about safety while out selling.
Ask each Scout to circle a prize they want to earn. After teaching the
Michael Beck Sales Training methods and having the Scouts use it in
their sales, have them tell you the new prize they want to go for! If they
use the Sales Training, they will see their success and move their
prize levels up!

Motivate & Communicate
Motivation
It is important to keep the energy and momentum going from start to finish. Check
in with your Scouts as often as possible.
At weekly den meetings
At weekly troop meetings
Share successes and give out incentives. Track progress on the goal poster.
At monthly pack meetings
At weekly troop meetings or Courts of Honor
Incentives can be dollar store items or donated items. Give raffle tickets for each
5 items sold (or whatever amount the committee determines) and have drawings.
Communication
It is extremely important to communicate with Scouts, leaders, and parents each
week throughout the sale. This could be a weekly email or even a weekly post on
your unit website or Facebook.
Communicate goals and deadlines
Communicate prizes (how to earn, how to redeem, etc…)
Share a tip
Highlight a den or patrol
Remind about Show & Sell dates/locations
Invite to Blitz Weekend events
COMMUNICATION IS KEY!

Online
Got friends and family out of town who would be willing to support the
Scouting Program?
Unit kernels will/can enter individual Scouts into the CAMP MASTERS
system and assign a password. A valid email must also be entered (can
be the parent’s or Scout’s email).
An email will go out to the entered email address with information on
how to finish setting up the Scout’s online selling.
From there, you can send customized emails to friends and family
anywhere in the world, with an ID that will credit the Scout with the sale.
Entering the Scouts into the CAMP MASTERS system
not only enables online selling, but allows you to track
and credit individual Scouts for Show & Sell and Take
Order for prize purposes!

Hold a Blitz Day
Blitz Day is the best way to start a unit’s sale. It gives Scouts an
opportunity to sell with their friends and get off to a good start. It also
helps units cover their communities.
Did you know that research shows that fewer than 20% of households,
nationally, have been contacted by a Scout to purchase popcorn?
You can set your own dates, or use the planned dates set by the council.
Advance planning is essential. Know the area and set it up for Scouts and
parents to cover well. Have a fun activity planned for everyone
afterwards. Maybe even award prizes to dens/patrols that sell the most
during that time.
Ensure parental involvement. Explain that Blitz Days (and Show & Sell)
are times when you need their assistance. 1—2 parents per 4 Scouts is
plenty.
Ask more consumers. With the statistic above, did you know that 70%
buy when asked? Keep a list of “no one home” and plan a complete
“coverage plan” for beyond the Blitz Days.
Keep going! Celebrate the good start you have had. Discuss successes
and offer additional ideas and suggestions. Remind Scouts and parents
about the Prize Program.
PRIZES
Sell at least one item on your first Blitz Weekend and earn the
center of the 5-part patch
Sell at least one item on your second Blitz
Weekend and earn a rocker from the 5-part patch
