Tips for Large Programs:
- Pep talks- get your salespeople excited about the product and the sale.
- Set a Goal for your group to achieve.
- Publicity is important. Make sure your sale is promoted. Some good ways to publicize your sale would be letters, posters, newspapers, and by word of mouth.
- Highlight some group/ personal favorites as well as the new varieties for the year.
- Bring along picture brochures to help show the different varieties and colors available.
- Be able to answer some simple questions.
- Make sure your customers are aware of the free bonus bulbs offer.
Tips for Small Programs:
- Schools: Sell safely; Do not sell alone or in strange neighborhoods. It is always a good idea to have a parent accompany a child if they sell door to door.
- Do Not let children enter unfamiliar homes or apartments.
- Places to sell also include the workplace or parents work place (if permitted), family members, and friends.
