Key to awesomeness: I was super excited when I heard we were going to be selling Little Caesars pizza kits. I love pizza, and it’s my favorite food to eat. The reason I was so successful is because I was determined to sell enough to send myself to fifth-grade camp. I asked everybody I know if they would like to buy pizza kits. I also asked them to ask everyone they knew if they wanted order pizza kits. My dad took the ordering form to work for me, and his co-workers ended up buying the majority of the kits I sold. I ended up selling more than $500 worth of kits. This was an awesome achievement because it ended up that three other students were able to go to camp because I sold so many. I was so excited to hear that they could go and felt proud when they decided to give me an award!
