Fall Product Sale

The sale will kick off this Friday, September 23.  All registered troops will receive – by mail – enough packets for all the registered girls in your troop – regardless if you intend to sell Fall Product or not.  I suggest you consider participation in the sale as it will bring funds to your troop and help support all GSEM does.  The process is easy and the troops will receive a 15% profit for all of its sales.  If you DO NOT want to participate in the sale, we would like to request that you let us know and Anne will arrange to pick up the packets you’ve received so they can be distributed to troops who may need additional packets.  All participating troops are asked to have your Fall Product Chair email Anne Valade so communications regarding the sale can be sent.  Email our Fall Product Mentor, Anne Valade, at avalade@baystatedisposal.com.  

Some helpful tips:

*  Fall Product Coordinators should all be registered and CORI'd at this point.

*  All girls should be set up in the Nut-E system

*  Please be sure to submit your Troop Bank Account Information to Council!  Use this form.  If you have not yet set up a Troop Bank Account, click here to find out how to set up your account Troop Banking Account Information form.   This needs to be done ASAP as Council will be unable to submit any troop product orders that you have without the banking information. 

* Opt Out Option for Junior, Cadette, Senior or Ambassador troops:

   If your troop would like to Opt-Out of girl recognitions to earn additional proceeds, sign the form by this Friday, 

October 7.  By doing so, your troop will earn an additional 2% in proceeds but please make sure the girls know they will not receive any recognitions or patches.  Girls need to unanimously agree to forgo individual recognitions.  So please discuss it with the girls before they vote to Opt Out!

*  Don't forget to use the QSP online portal.  Using the online portal is a great way to let family and friends know that they have the opportunity to support your Girl Scouts! Send email, texts, and even post to Facebook! Purchasing new magazines or renewing favorites is so easy to do online and in doing so, it gets the magazines to the customers much faster!

*  If your unclear about any aspect of the Fall Product Sale,  view the online training videos here or on the website  under the "Program Training" section.

*  Still need more packets for your troop??  I have a tote on my porch that you can pick up extras from.  If you have extras that you'd like to leave for others to use, please drop them in the tote.
