Product Delivery & Payments |
Important Forms |
Products will be delivered to our service unit the first weekend in November, between November 2nd and 4th, during which time each troop will pick up their total troop order, sort them by Girl Scout, and disperse them to their girls to deliver.
When Girl Scouts return to their customers with the items they ordered, they collect payment AT DELIVERY. The only time payments can be collected prior to the delivery date is for Care to Share orders, which are entered online. Payments can be made in cash or check or Square/Electronic payment IF your troop chooses to collect in non-cash form. That decision is left up to each troop. Just remember that any check written to the troop account that bounces incurs a $35 fee, which could seriously impact the troop, so be careful when accepting checks. It is recommended that all checks have a drivers license number noted, phone number, and Scouts name listed on the check's note line so it can be traced back to their order form should difficulties arise. Bounced checks, counterfeit bills or accrued fees due to it is not council's responsibility to reimburse the troop back. Responsibility falls back on the troop. Rule of thumb, if your gut is telling you to not accept a check, listen to it! It is better to lose the potential sale than incur the cost of the fee. Products left over can always be resold to another Scout looking for extras. Keep a paper trail of any product picked up by the scout and of any money collected. Save any signed receipts for each scout until each of the girls balances have been paid in full. If a scout/family fails to turn money on time, contact the parent/guardian immediately. Document all contacts and keep the troop informed.
If by December 1st, 2018 your troop needs assistance in collecting money, please advise the service unit product chair, service unit manager and the Director of Product sales. |
