Online Popcorn Sales



Hi,

Increase your sales with your out-of-town friends and relatives by selling online!  Here is how to get started with online popcorn sales.

Go to the
Trails End Selling Site, then sign up for an account.

Once you have signed up for an account, look at the top bar, and click on "Spread the Word"

At this page, you can enter email addresses, then customize a letter to each of those people.  Note that you can either enter a number of email addresses to send the same letter to them, or send a different letter to each one if you enter one at a time.

When you go through this process, each email recipient will get a personal link to the sales page.  When they click on this link, it will bring up a box saying "Thanks for your support"  You are currently supporting <name of your scout>".

They have all the same selections as they would if they were looking at the paper form that you all have.

Note: 
  • The product will be delivered directly to he customer, you will not hae to deliver it
  • The prices are a bit higher than if you delivered it, but the shipping is free.
  • If you want this to count towards money towards summer camp, or Marty's hair becoming different somehow, all orders will need to be in by October 23.
  • There are some helpful tips on how to raise funds for the troop by selling popcorn in the Resources are of the website
  • You can sell the rest of the year with this as well, and money will still go to our troop.  I'm not sure of all of the details on this one, but according to Trails End:

Trail's End makes payments to councils at the end of every quarter for online sales. Councils are then responsible for paying their units the amount earned for online sales. Please check with your council to find out when and how they make those payments.
