[quote=Anonymous]When I was a leader and my DD was a GS, I encouraged the girls to sell their own cookies. They role played for practice. My DD went door to door with me supervising but mostly stuck to houses she knew. The fact is hardly anybody answered the door and it was very discouraging. She also called up relatives herself and sold over the phone. It has been years since I’ve had a girl show up at my door or call me and I do order from the websites. I assume that the girls are setting them up themselves and today they get in-person experience at booth sales. I think the least pressure to buy is when a parent posts on social media or you receive an email. You don’t have to say no to a sweet face. If you don’t want to buy, hit delete on the email or scroll on. With that said, I have never liked the parent selling in the office because the girl has zero involvement. The 2 top earners in my troop sold tons that way. [/quote]
