If you know us then you most likely got an email from us asking, begging, pleading to buy popcorn from Christian for the scouts. The sales are now over and he did well. First we did site sales at Raleys. He had fun doing it, though it lasted a bit too long for the 7 year old attention spans. However, by doing those site sales he gets into his "scout account" 30% of his individual sales to do scout stuff with instead of 15%. Nice!!
Then we went off to to do individual sales --- his personal goal was $600!! That's a lot of popcorn! We went out with Zachary and took turns selling door to door. They did great, Christian was really into selling and trying to upsell... He convinced a few families to buy the $40 collection. Nice! We went out a couple of more times and in the end he made about $400 going door to door.
Several of you also stepped up and helped out as I sent email to friends and co-workers about buying popcorn or sending popcorn to the troops. Christian earned another $175! Then I had to put in my order... I brought his total up to over $650...
So here are the rewards he's earned from the sales:
- Popcorn Patch (for selling at least 1 item)
- Military $100 club (for selling over $100 in military donations)
- Zyclone Shooter (for selling over $600)
- $30 Amazon Giftcard (for selling over $650)
And of course we get to enjoy our popcorn too!
