Earn Up To 37% Commission For Your Unit
70% of all popcorn sales goes right back to Scouting. 30% will go to support the Council programs and camps and up to 37% will go back to your Unit in commissions. In addition, Scouts will earn prizes and incentives to support your own program. Here is how it works.

30% Base Commission
Your Unit will earn a minimum of 30% on all gross sales you make. You will get to keep this profit right off the top. No need to send all the money to the Council office and then wait to get your commission back. Only turn in to the Council what you owe for the sale. Laura Kaye and members of the staff will be available if you have any questions regarding the process.

5% Bonus Commission
Your Unit will earn an additional 5% Bonus (total of 35% commission) if you do the following 3 things (must meet all requirements to get bonus).
1. Have up to 2 adult volunteers from your Unit (one must be your 2010 Popcorn Kernel) attend 1 of the 2 Council Popcorn Kick-Offs.
2. Set your Unit Sales Goal and conduct a Unit Kick-off
3. Pay your invoice in full by the due dates of November 12th and December 16th, 2011.

2% “Increase Your Sale” Bonus:
Earn an additional 2% for up to 37%, when your Unit increases their total gross sale by $1,000 over their 2010 popcorn sale!

Scout Rewards
Scout will earn gift cards based on the amount of their total sales. The Scouts still qualify for all other special Council and Trail’s End Incentives (Fill Up Your Order Form/Popcorn Victory Party, $600 Club, $1,500 Seller, and Scholarship Program). Prizes and incentives are great ways to motivate your Scouts!

Corporate Sale Option
If someone in your Unit has a relationship with a business or corporation or owns their own business, the Corporate Sale option can really benefit your Unit’s sale. An individual or company can support our local Scouts, and at the same time show appreciation to customers and employees over the holidays with a gift of popcorn. For orders greater than $1,000 we can deliver the product directly to the business without your Unit even having to handle the product. For more information, please contact Laura Kaye at the Council office.

SPECIAL UNIT INCENTIVE:
For every $4500 (Council Unit Average) in combined gross sales, your Unit will receive 1 entry into a special prize drawing for 1 of the following 3 prizes:
1) Pinewood Derby Track
2) $1250 Read Dollars
3) $1,000 Gift Card
