Last-Minute Push & Troop Next Steps
Last week, we emailed caregivers to encourage their Girl Scouts to capture those final orders. As we wrap up:
- Check Rosters: Ensure all participating Girl Scouts are registered with your troop.
- Closing Out: Need help closing out in M2? Watch this short video tutorial for step-by-step guidance.
Troop Proceeds & Bonuses
Troops can earn up to 25% in proceeds to fund camp, programs, and future adventures:
- Base Proceeds: 15% on every dollar sold.
- Opt-Out Bonus: +5% for troops (any level) that opt out of rewards. Just toggle it in M2.
- Participation Bonus: +5% for troops with at least 5 Girl Scouts, 60% participation, and a troop average of $300+ in sales per Girl Scout.
Note: Any earned participation bonuses will automatically be reflected in M2 after the program closes. Look for the "Supplemental Proceeds" line item on your summary report—that is where those will live.
Key Dates:
- October 20: Last day for customers to order online AND last day for Girl Scouts to enter paper order card sales into M2. Fall Product Coordinators also have access to enter any last-minute orders into M2, and confirm all troop members’ reward selections this day.
- October 30: Automatic troop funds withdrawal (100% balance due) from your troop’s bank account. Ensure funds are available in your troop’s account at least two days prior. Coordinators are able to run a Troop Summary Report in M2 to review the amount due. Contact our Customer Care team if you foresee any potential issues relating to this withdrawal.
- November 12–13: All Girl-Delivered and paper order card product delivered to service units and GSEMA service centers.
- November TBD: Rewards delivery to mentors and GSEMA service centers. Pick-up details will be provided by your mentor or a member of the GSEMA product program team.
