The first rule of success is to expect to be successful. People who expect to be successful usually are! Here are some tips for a super successful cookie training.
|
|
|
Build a cookie training team. Get leaders, cookie managers, parents and guardians involved.
|
|
|
Generate excitement about cookie time with girls and their families all year long.
|
|
|
Use all available Girl Scout Cookie resources, including this web site and materials from your council and online materials from GSUSA, including the 2008-09 Cookie Activity.
|
|
|
Communicate team goals developed by girls and council goals. Everyone needs to know how their cookie proceeds will be used.
|
|
|
Be respectful of everyone¹s time. Busy parents and volunteers will be more likely to participate if their time is used efficiently.
|
|
|
Prepare everyone for a safe, successful cookie selling experience. Review the safety information on the Order Card, from your council and in Safety-Wise or online as a download from Girl Scouts of the USA.
|
|
|
Make it fun, active and fast! Stress the importance of meeting cookie deadlines. A fast sale is a fun sale!
|
|
Visualize a great cookie sale, and take steps to make it happen!
