QSP = Quick Simple Profitable
QSP is the fall fundraiser for Girl Scouts.
It's a great opportunity for the girls to raise money for their troop and Council (and thereby reduce the amount of dues to collect). QSP has candy & nut products and magazine sales. Girls learn goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.
Our QSP Manager is Janice Wivagg and she did a brief training at our 9/23 Service Unit Meeting. Below is an overview:
Also, there are many of you for which I do not have registration information, which means that our registrar has not received your troop registrations. Please remember that the QSP troop fundraiser begins Oct. 1 and ends Nov. 1. It is a short sale and you don't want to miss out on this start-up fundraising opportunity for your troop.
Thank you for your cooperation.Any questions, please contact Janice. If you don't have her email, email GSCTAmitySU@gmail.com and your email will be forwarded to Janice!

- A Girl must be registered to receive her QSP packet.
- QSP sales begin October 1 and ends November 1
- QSP sales must be entered into nut-E (accessed via www.gsofct.org) and paperwork submitted by Nov. 8. Don't wait until the last minute because the system will get slow.
- Payments to Council should be done online through the Webster Bank online payment link on gsofct.org Don't wait until November 8 because it takes a few days to get the payment confirmation, which needs to be submitted with paperwork to Janice by November 8.
- Product pickup date will be December 9 (in time for holiday & teacher gifts).
- Fill out an address booklet with 8 distinct addresses. Troop will receive $2.00 for each completed address booklet.
- Sell magazines subscriptions - orders can be taken by catalog or you can supply a link to your friends/relatives. Digital magazine subscriptions are also available. Troops earn 15% of total sales.
- Sell nut & candy products - orders can be taken by catalog or you can supply a link to your friends/relatives. All nut/candy products are delivered to the troop - there are no shipping options. Troops earn 15% of total sales.
- Girls and families can send out online links through the Magazine/Net Online portal. Girls must sign internet safety pledge. Girls earn a badge for sending out at least 12 emails through this online system.
- Juniors, Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors can elect an additional 2% proceeds in place of recognitions. They will still receive all patches.
Using Nut-E - there is a refresher webiner on 10/30 at 7 pm.
**Troop QSP Managers should set up their troops on Nut-E by October 1 (or before you distribute QSP packets to your troop).
Important note: your troop has to participate in QSP (in any way) in order to be able to host an Election Day booth sale in November.
A note from Janice:
There are many troops for which I still have not received QSP manager info. If you are one of these troops, please complete the attached form and email back to me, or just provide me with the information on the form. I wouldn't want your product manager to be unable to access the Nut-e system so the sooner I get the information, the better.Also, there are many of you for which I do not have registration information, which means that our registrar has not received your troop registrations. Please remember that the QSP troop fundraiser begins Oct. 1 and ends Nov. 1. It is a short sale and you don't want to miss out on this start-up fundraising opportunity for your troop.
