Build the BEST Kickoff
The kickoff is the single most important factor for
you to have a good sale
Have a 30-minute fun-filled Popcorn Kickoff:
• Refer to the Leader Guide at www.scoutpopcorn.ca
• Make it FUN and FESTIVE!
• Show parents what’s in it for them
• Have giveaways and prizes
• Prepare your Scouts
• Have role plays and practice the sales script
• Help your Scouts gain the confidence to sell!
• Review the proper selling techniques
• Review the safety tips
Close The Sale
Want to close more sales?
Take the following approach when
speaking to a potential customer…
Hi, my name is _____ and I’m a Scout with Group ___.
I’m selling popcorn so I can ______.
You can help me reach my goal by trying some of my
popcorn!
Will you please help me?
More effective than asking, “Want to buy some
popcorn?” don’t you think?
Communication
It’s important to follow up after your kickoff and
throughout the sale with important sale information.
Use email, social media, and meetings to remind families
about:
• Sales goal for each Scout
• Key sale dates
• Weekly updates at meetings.
• Email Scouts and parents about key dates as
reminders.
• Utilize Social media
Go to www.scoutpopcorn.ca
to access communication tools:
• Promotional Images
• Leader Guide

Selling Methods
Take Order Selling
Youth use an order form
to go door-to-door or sell to family and friends.
• Establish your dates – take order sales typically start immediately after
kickoff. Create a cut off date for your group, allowing you enough time
to
process the orders.
• Determine sales territory. Don’t infringe on another groups, “Territory”
• Create a “Blitz Day” to have youth sell as a
group activity
• Have parent(s) take an order form to work
• Be creative !!
