The Benefits of Selling Popcorn!
- NO RISK! There are no upfront costs; you only pay for what you sell!
- The Council accepts returns. We take back what you can’t sell.
- Returns will not be accepted after the deadline, and the Unit will be charged for the items.
- We encourage you to return your extra product early so it can be distributed to other units that need it.
- *Note that since this is a food product, the Council cannot return any product to the manufacturer. Please be courteous when ordering products.
- You’ll be able to fund your Scouting adventures all year long.
- Competitive commission structure.
- An online sales platform allows 24/7 availability nationwide, and products are shipped directly to the customer (direct-to-consumer).
- Prizes! The Council pays for Scout prizes and bonuses, while Camp Masters provide additional incentives. Scouts only need to sell 1 item to earn a prize.
- Units can also opt out of the prize program and earn 40% commission. However, the entire Unit must opt out, and no Scout receives the Council Prizes
- Opportunity to support our Military with multiple donation options.
