Popcorn Selling Options
Take Order
A Scout goes door to door with a take order form with a parent or a buddy, the customer writes their order on the form, the Scout returns to deliver the product and collect payment in a few weeks. Remember always to say “thank you” to the person purchasing the popcorn.
Show-N-Sell
The unit works as a team at a location(s) to show their products and to make immediate sales after getting permission to sell in front of a business, storefront, or other location.
Online
Allows Scouts to sell online to family and friends. There is an online account available for each individual unit and/or for each individual Scout. Sales generated online qualifies toward Scout Rewards and scholarship credit.
**Note: All Popcorn & Prize Orders MUST be placed using the Online Ordering System**
