Wear your full class A uniform
Show the QR code on a smart device or printed out from https://troop782.org/documents/greenery-qr-codes/
Instruct the customer to use their smart device to scan the code and order. BE SURE TO REMIND THEM TO PUT YOUR SCOUT’S NAME AS THE SELLER
Get the order number from the customer (e.g Gxxx-2022.) They will be told what their order number is upon completing an order. This will help later to match payments to orders
Encourage the customer to pay via Venmo, check or cash after completing the order. If they insist on paying upon delivery, record the name, address and amount with the order number
Bring an envelope for cash and checks. Write the names, addresses order numbers and amounts on the envelope. Bring the envelope to the next troop meeting so that payments can be recorded.
If the customer wants to place an order later, that’s not encouraged, but it’s fine. Know that you will have to approach them for payment when you deliver their greenery. IF YOU CANNOT DELIVER OR COLLECT PAYMENT YOU ARE ON THE HOOK TO PAY FOR THE GREENERY.
