2021 What's Poppin' Volume 3

FALL PRODUCT SALE KICKOFF

We had a great attendance at the Fall Product Sale Kickoff.

We saw a lot of smiling faces and answered some great questions.

Thank you to all who attended.

It looked like everyone had a great time.

We understand that not everyone could attend, so we have attached the Power Point presentation on the Fall Product Sale webpage. You will also find Pecatonica River tutorials. Please visit the page for a look at the Power Point and to find some great resources.

UNIT KICKOFF

The Top 5 rules for success to having a Great Sale:

1. Kernel Recruitment

2. Goal Setting

3. Establishing a Plan

4. Unit Kickoff

5. Communication with your Members and Families

If you haven’t yet planned your unit Kickoff, be sure to do so soon. This is your BEST opportunity to sell your unit and families on why they need to have a successful sale.

Your key objectives are:

· Emphasize what the Scouts will receive for attaining their goal - Prizes, Scouting programs, camp, dues reduction, etc.

· Get Scouts and families excited!

SHOW & SELL ORDER PICK UP

‌Plan now for the Show & Sell Order pick up on August 26^th. Who will be available to help you load, transport, and unload? Your District Kernel will soon be in touch with you to schedule your pick up time.

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS! Help to sort and help with distribution. This volunteer does not need to be the Unit Kernel. Maybe you have someone else in your unit who is looking for a way to help Scouting. Anticipated delivery is August 24^th, with sorting on August 25^th. Times TBD.
