7 Ways Cop Shows Taught Me How to Sell Girl Scout Cookies

This is my family's 5th year selling Girl Scout cookies, or as I like to call it "moving product." After 5 years in the "business," I have to say that nothing has taught me more about selling Girl Scout cookies than my obsession with cop shows on TV. Think about it: the criminals on these shows are constantly resorting to devious shenanigans in order to accomplish their unlawful goals. And while I don't condone their crimes, I can't help but admire their tactics. So what's wrong with taking a few tips from the bad guys and using them to further the noble cause of the good guys (the "good guys" in this scenario being my daughter and her fellow Scouts)?
