How to sell successfully

What to do

Dress the part

Go to the door in pairs

Knock enthusiastically (a good solid know shows confidence)

When someone answers, be outgoing and confident, hand them the card to look at and let them know the price, but if they use the side coupon attached to the card, they get their money right back

They may say no.

Always say “Thank you, have a nice day”

Dress the Part

When you go out on Blitz Day, we wear our Band Uniforms. No Hats, glove, or instrument is needed. When you dress and look the part, it is easier to sell these cards

Go to the Door in Pairs

Always go in pairs, never alone.

NEVER go inside (even if it is a relative). This is for everyone’s safety

Be Outgoing and Confident

When someone answers, have a smile on your face and say “Hi!"

What does the money raised go for

All profits go towards: new uniforms, new Instruments, to assist in our fees.

They may say no

They may say no and they may not be polite. Always have a smile on your face, be polite and enthusiastic. And if they reject you, always say “Thank you very much for your time, have a wonderful day”

Never show them that you are discouraged by their reactions.

You can accept checks and Venmo

Please have them written to "Midview Band Boosters"

Drivers

When you arrive at HS, maps will be laid out for you to pick. Four students will be assigned to you. Each student will get a pack of 10 cards and you will get a few more (just in case). Drive the students to the route, let them walk door to do while you drive behind them making sure they are safe and are always in groups. There are special “count” forms in which you will need to fill out before you go, and there is a “Driver form” you must fill out as well.

Other than that, go out and help our students sell! And thank you for donating your time!
