Let’s meet some Cookie Bosses!
Junior from Troop 9547 Alexis K. suggests:Â
Make a video to share with your customers! It’s a great way to show them what you’re doing in Girl Scouts. Here’s a hint—send a thank-you video to your Fall Product customers or last year’s cookie customers to thank them for their support. This reminds them that you’re a Girl Scout and helps them think of you when it’s time to sell cookies!Â
Lets hear from Senior from Troop 6046, Kayla T:Â
“I learned that to be a successful Girl Scout seller, I needed to ask for the sale with charisma. Throughout this season I developed a set of cookie-selling guidelines for myself to appeal to customers.”
Kayla also shares:
“Some of these guidelines include warmly greeting customers while maintaining eye contact with a genuine smile, gracefully handling rejections with cookie share and donation options, informing non-cash prospects about other payment options, and strategically upselling specific flavors to move certain cookies that I have more inventory of. Two golden rules really helped with my cookie selling. The first golden rule was to be polite no matter if a sale was made. The second golden rule was to practice exceptional customer service.”
