11HOW TO SELL
basic TOOLS
for budding GirL Scout cookie™ Entrepreneurs
Order cards
Girls can start by asking neighbors, friends
and family members to place orders for
cookies. They write their orders on the paper
order card, which is turned in to the cookie
volunteer and entered into eBudde™.
Digital Cookie®
On this online selling platform, girls can
personalize their Digital Cookie site and send
emails to invite friends and family to buy cookies
with the option of getting in-person delivery or
direct shipment to their home, based on council-
approved methods of delivery.
Booth sales
Troops can set up booths in high-traffic areas such as
grocery stores, malls or sporting events to market their Girl
Scout Cookies to customers. Sign up for booth sales and
get council approval through eBudde™ or eBudde™ Troop
App Plus.
Door-to-door
Encourage girls to spread the Girl Scout Cookie love
to their entire neighborhood. Take orders, or load
packages into a wagon or car and leave no
doorbell unrung!
Workplace sales
Girls can either make sales pitches to local businesses
or go with a parent to their workplace to take orders.
Social media
For Girl Scout entrepreneurs 13 and older*
, social
media is a great way to spread the word about their cookie
sales.
*Always get parental permission
before posting about the Girl Scout
Cookie Sale®, and remember to follow
GSUSA’s online safety guidelines.

12PICKING UP GIRL S COUT CO OKIES ®
Follow These Guidelines for a
Smooth Cookie Pickup

• Arrive at your scheduled pickup time.
• Make sure to have enough vehicles to load your order (see graphic below for help!).

?
Can I return cookies?
COOKIES CANNOT BE RETURNED ONCE THEY’RE PICKED UP.
Troops are responsible for counting and verifying the total number of cases.
Troops accept financial responsibility by signing the receipt. Once receipts are signed, case counts are final,
and cookies are the property of that troop.
WHEN IN DOUBT, RECOUNT.
Wait until you’re sure about your case count to sign the receipt.
13BOOTH SELLING TIPS
Share goals with customers
They love to know how girls are investing their
cookie proceeds, so encourage
girls to make posters, banners or
t-shirts to get the word out.
Remember to keep
the new packaging
confidential until
January 7, 2020.
Give away bite-sized samples
Give customers a taste of something they love,
booth
or something they’ve never tried
before! Keep the variety’s nutrition label
in full view in case a customer has
selling
food sensitivities.

23Safety Tips
Be sure girls understand and follow
these safety rules:
• Show you’re a Girl Scout—Wear the
Girl Scout membership pin and/or
Girl Scout clothing to identify yourself as a
Girl Scout.
• Buddy up—Always use the buddy system.
It’s not just safe, it’s more fun.
• Be streetwise—Become familiar with the
areas and neighborhoods where you will
be selling Girl Scout Cookies®.
• Partner with adults—If you are a
Girl Scout Daisy, Brownie or Junior you
must be accompanied by an adult when
taking orders or selling/delivering product.
If you are a Girl Scout Cadette, Senior or
Ambassador, you must “buddy up” when
selling door-to-door. Adults must be
present at all times during booth sales.
• Plan ahead—Always have a plan for
safeguarding money. Avoid walking around
with large amounts or keeping it at home
or school. Give proceeds to supervising
adults who should deposit it as directed by
your Girl Scout council as soon as possible.
• Do not enter—Never enter the home or
vehicle of a person when you are selling or
making deliveries. Avoid selling to people
in vehicles or going into alleys.
• Sell in the daytime—Sell only during
daylight hours, unless accompanied by
an adult.
• Protect privacy—Girls’ names, addresses
and email addresses should never be
given out to customers. Use a group
contact number or address overseen
by an adult for customers to request
information, reorder or give comments.
Protect customer privacy by not sharing
their information except for the product
sale. Girls should never take credit
card numbers.
• Be safe on the road—Always follow
safe pedestrian practices, especially
when crossing at intersections or walking
along roadways. Be aware of traffic when
unloading product and passengers
from vehicles.
• Be net wise—Take the Girl Scout Internet
Safety Pledge before going online and
follow the specific guidelines related to
marketing online.
