Default What I Learned from 12 Yr Old Katie Who Just Broke 30 Yr GirlScout COOKIESales Record

Thanks Dien,

21,477 boxes of cookies in 8 weeks.

You can look up Katie Francis from Oklahoma City yourself.

At age 11 - last year Katie did something different.

In 2013 she sold 12,000 boxes of cookies - to break the state record.

Decided to do Three Things Differently.

I - She set a goal to sell 18,100 in 7 weeks (The old record was 18,000 even)
(Cuz of snow - the time was extended for a week.)

II - Katie Did the math and figured out how many hours a day
it would take at ___ Boxes an Hr - to reach her goal.

IF any spot didn't meet the goal - She MOVED.

III - She PLANNED in Advance and called Sponsors so she could raffle off
Hotel rooms and Spa Weekends.

Buy 6 boxes - you can Enter a Raffle to win a 800.00 Resort Vacation.

Buy 12 Boxes - You can Enter the Weekend Spa Vacation Raffle.

THIS
RECORD
Stood for THIRTY YEARS.

So this is not a small accomplishment.

Might be a few ideas we can all adopt.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - Katie plans to BEAT her 2014 Record next year. My Bet is she beats it by
a LARGE # - not just a few boxes.
