Unit Commission Structure

We’re doing a la carte style in 2023 — Incentives below do not carry prerequisite incentives aside from the base “Sell Popcorn”

• Sell Popcorn (base) — 28%
• Pick up and pay by November 18 at noon — 1%
• Have a unit representative at District Kickoff — 1%
• Identify unit Popcorn Kernel and commit to sale on Camp Masters website by August 1 — 1%
• Sell average of $600 per Scout (as of June 30 membership) OR grow 2022’s sales by 10% or more — 2%
• Pay in full for Show & Sell and for Take Order by October 31 — 1%
• No Show & Sell returns — 2%

Note on Commissions in 2023: Unless otherwise requested, commissions will be taken out of what payment’s due for total sales. For example, if a unit’s total sales comes to $5000 and the unit has earned a 35% commission, the unit will only owe a total of $3250 back to council. This passes the savings back to the unit in a simple, efficient, and practical way.
