Getting Ready for the Cookie Season
Kicks Off on December 17

Smart Cookies Email will be sent December 12
Hello Girl Scout Family,

We are very excited to kick off our annual Cookie Program for 2023. For more than 100 years, Girl Scouts have had the opportunity to become entrepreneurs as they run their own business – the Girl Scout Cookie Business!
 
Did you know…
 
  • Many Girl Scout Alumnae indicate that participating in the Cookie Program was their favorite part of Girl Scouts?
 
  • Girls who participate learn how to work with people, how to manage money and how to set/achieve goals?
 
  • 100% of the proceeds earned stay local and are reinvested into the Girl Scout experience?


Your Girl Scout’s Troop Cookie Manager and Troop Leader will provide additional information and supplies to support your participation. One of the options your family has is to participate online. This allows your out-of-town friends and family help support your Girl Scout’s efforts. And GSKSMO is thrilled to help support the sales that are directly shipped by subsidizing shipping when your customer orders nine, or more, packages.
 
Your family will receive an email on December 12 from [email protected]. This is your email invitation to set up your Girl Scout’s Smart Cookies account. This allows you to send emails and access both an online sales link and/or QR code that you can share on social media, door hangers and business cards.
 
For more information on how to set up Smart Cookies, please watch this video.
 
You can learn more about Smart Cookies for Girls here.


TIPS:
 
  • Girls who upload photos and short videos tend to sell more cookies online! Be sure to share what your troop is doing with your proceeds.
 
  • If you are serving as your Girl Scout’s Troop Cookie Manager, your Girl Scout’s username must be something other than your email address.
 
  • To learn more about the Cookie Program overall, we have a wonderful selection of support materials, including a Family Cookie Guide and Checklist, on our website.
 
  • Questions regarding the Cookie Program should be directed to your troop’s Cookie Manager first, but we are here to support you as well. Email [email protected] and be sure to include your Girl Scout’s full name and troop number.
 
Thank you for your support and Happy Holidays!
