Selling Resources and Techniques
There are several techniques Scouts can use to sell camp cards. Whether its posting on their social media account, selling door to door, or a “pop up” sale in their neighborhood, Scouts have a multitude of creative ways to sell camp cards. One effective way while many of us are still working from home is an email campaign. Simply use the email template below to ask your co-workers, family, and friends to purchase camp cards and enjoy some great discount offers!
