Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland

2011 Training!

1) The annual Girl Scout Cookie activity connects Girls Scouts through time. It is our

shared history, our collective experience, our cherished tradition. We are its keepers. We are its future.

• How many of you sold cookies as a Girl Scout? * What do you remember about

selling cookies?

2) Beyond being a cherished Girl Scout tradition, the Cookie Sale support the Girl Scout mission through program elements and funding. Remember, the sale should focus

on the processes of Girl Led, Learning by Doing, and Cooperative Learning.• As a program activity, what can girls learn (and volunteers) learn by participating in

the sale? • What can you help teach the girls through the sale?

� Set goals… working to achieve goals by developing action plans� Business Ethics…entrepreneurship, marketing (new online marketing)� People Skills…public Speaking, Communication skills � Decision Making…� Money Management…financial literacy, budgeting, money handling

These program elements make the Cookie Sale the nation's premier financial literacy and entrepreneurship program. It take you make this possible. Without you, the sale is just like every other fundraiser.

Goal 1,419,000

boxes

•Every cookie counts towards goal of 1,419,000 boxes. This is a 2% increase of the cookies sold last year.

Why do we create goals and why are goals important?

Did you know the #1 way to increase sales is to set a goal and communicate the goal to customers? Customers love to learn about girl’s goals and what their goal helps them achieve Example: My goal is 500 boxes, so I can attend the 500+ Event at Exploration Place. Help girls create a simple goal statement to tell their customers.

Selling 101• Girls start on Jan. 22 by taking cookie orders.

• Girls collect the money when they deliver cookiesto their customers.

• Girls continue selling after submitting their initialorder (Feb. 7) through March 13.

When can girls begin selling and taking orders?

•Encourage girls to be honest and fair by starting selling on January 22. •Girls who do not follow the sale dates and guidelines can lose their eligibility for cookie recognitions and cookie credits.

When do girls collect the money from their customers?

•At the time they deliver the cookies. Each year we get calls from customers who paid for cookies, but never received their cookies. Please help us avoid this situation, by instructing the girls to not take money until they deliver cookies.

Can girls continue selling after they turn in their initial order?

•Yes, they should continue selling through March 13.

Where can girls sell cookies?

•Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland should sell cookies within our 80-county jurisdiction. There are no restrictions, however, on where girls can sell within our Council. No girl or troop has exclusive right to any town, area or street.

•Take order card/cookies to parent’s workplace, dentist office, hair salon…everywhere you go!

•Troop and girls may not set up booths at businesses without permission from their Regional Office. Selling cookies in a business setting without girl involvement does not support our position that this is a girl activity and is prohibited.

order taking or delivering cookies• Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors who participate in door-to-door sales

Cookies and InternetGirls may promote the

cookie sale and take orders via email and text

messaging. Girls 13 years old and older may also use

social networking sites, such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter, as long as they have

a parent’s permission and are under adult supervision.

•Safety-Wise states: Girls can use e-mail and age-appropriate Internet functions as online marketing tools to let family, friends and former customers know about the sale and collect indications of interest. Any use of the Internet as an online marketing tool by councils and girls must adhere to current GSUSA and Internet provider guidelines related to: safety, internet etiquette, age requirements, parent permission, adult oversight and council jurisdiction. •This means girls may promote the cookie sale and take cookie orders via email and text messaging. Girls 13 and older may also use social networking sites, such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter, as long as they have a parent’s permission, are under adult supervision, and follow Safety-Wise guidelines. Girls 13 and older may use YouTube for marketing, but must have parental permission and council approval of what is to be posted.•As a Girl Scout, girls must never use or post a personal e-mail, personal street address, or phone number on a site. Instead use an adult’s e-mail address or troop/group e-mail address that is monitored by an adult. •Girls must direct customers to an offline point of sale for payment and cookie delivery. Under no circumstances can girls or their parents take money over the internet for a Girl Scout product sale or sell cookies through online auction sites such as e-Bay or Craigs List. •All girls must read and sign the revised Girl Scout Internet Safety Pledge with a parent or guardian, if they are using the Internet. Access the form at www.girlscouts.org. Please reference www.lmk.girlscouts.org for guidance around social network safety.

Who has participated in a cookie share program in the past?

Council Wide program this year! The Cookie Share program gives girls an opportunity to learn about philanthropy and community service. It’s easy to participate!

1. When selling cookies, girls ask customers, if they would like to purchase an extra box (or more) of cookies to donate to our military troops or to one of the other charities listed on the Cookie Share receipt.

2. Customers fill out the Cookie Share receipt and the girl indicates the number of boxes on the Cookie Share column of the order card.

3. If the customer only purchases cookie shares, collect their money at the time of the sale. If the customer also orders box(es) of cookies, wait and collect their money when the cookies are delivered.

4. Turn in the Cookie Share receipts and money to the Troop Cookie Sale Manager.

5. The Council delivers the cookies to the selected organizations

Organizations: � McConnell AFB and Kansas National Guard � Kansas Food Bank� Catholic Charities� Local Food Pantries
