GSUSA D/B/J Cookie Program Meeting Guide
Have the Girl Scouts look at the order card. Have them write their names on their cards (or help them, if they are not able) and review the different sections, highlighting the different types of cookies, the rewards, where to find nutrition facts, how to help customers complete the order card, and how to use the card to take orders over the phone.
As a troop, or in small groups, let girls get creative while showing off their product knowledge. Give girls a set time amount to come up with a fun cookie jingle. Make sure you instruct them that the song needs to speak to the cookie’s flavor profile. Girls can use their jingle as a way to attract attention to their booths when the time comes!
Set up a blind cookie taste test and have the Girl Scout who is tasting describe the cookie she is blindly eating. Maybe this will inspire some new selling points as she really thinks about how it tastes!
