Frequently Asked Questions

Need more information? Our dedicated team is here to help.

How much time will this really take?

Scouts typically reach their goals in 4-6 hours of solo Storefronts. Our technology reduces the administrative work so you can focus on supporting your Scouts.

Is it complicated to manage?

No. Everything you need, from sales tracking to inventory management, is in your Leader Portal. Plus, we provide free credit card processing and real-time support.

What support do you provide?

From day one you'll have access to:

Dedicated support teams
Training resources
Proven selling strategies
Strategic selling locations through Storefronts
Marketing materials

How does a Trail's End fundraiser work?

Units pick up popcorn from their Council to sell at Storefronts. Scouts use the app to sign up for Storefronts, record orders, and share their online fundraising page. Scouts can sell online year round for direct shipment to their customers. There are no upfront costs! You get paid and then get back to Scouting!

What products do we sell?

Choose from gourmet popcorn and other great products (Retail price recommendations are listed for reference):

White Cheddar Popcorn ($20)
Salted Caramel Corn ($25)
S’mores Popcorn ($30)
Popping Corn Bundle ($34)
Chocolatey Pretzels ($30)
Honey Roasted Peanuts ($35)
Original Beef Jerky ($27)
Salted Virginia Peanuts ($30)

How does this work with other fundraisers I'm doing?

Some new Units combine Trail's End with their other fundraisers for the first year. When they see how much their Unit can earn and Scouts can sell, they typically stop the other fundraisers - less time fundraising, more time Scouting!

Why should I risk trying something new if I already have fundraisers that work for me?

We’re offering you a risk-free way to try Trail's End with two free cases. Your Unit keeps 100% of those profits ($480)! Many Units find these first two cases alone fund a significant activity. They then continue selling once they see how well the fundraiser works.
