Oct 9, 2013 | Demonstrator |
What? Did you read that? Join Stampin’ Up! for $25. Yep it’s true. But not true for very long. This offer ends on October 21st. But for two short weeks you can become a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator for only $25.
Here are some of the details –
During this offer, only the special $25 starter kit will be available; the regular $99 starter kit will not be available. The $25 Starter Kit includes
- $26.95 worth of Stampin’ Up! product (it must be more than $25, but not more than $26.95 before tax)
- Business pack which includes
- A box of annual catalogs
- A package of the current seasonal catalog
- Getting Started DVD
- Customer Order Forms
- Customer postcards
Why is October a good month to join? Well it happens to be the first month of the quarter and as a new demonstrator your first sales minimum isn’t due until your first FULL quarter (in this case Jan – March) that means March 2014. So you can get all your Stampin’ Up! purchases for 20% off for the next 6 months if you are joining to get yourself a discount. All your sales from October through March will count towards your first full quarter amount of $300.
As a new demonstrator you get a bonus on your first $150 order within 45 days of joining – so instead of 20% you will get 30%. PLUS if you place that order within 30 days (rather than 45) Stampin’ Up! will give you a free stamp set from the catalog – any value – the most expensive one is $46.95!
If you are signing up to make extra money that’s 30% on the first $150 that you sell – that is $45! And you only paid $25 to join – you are already ahead making some extra bucks! But wait if you bump that first order to $250 you can also take advantage of the October hostess special – and extra $25 in hostess benefits – so $65 total of free product if you are the hostess. And the 30% on that $250 order is $75!
There are no strings attached so if you decide later that you don’t want to stay a demo and you haven’t met your sales minimum ($300 by the end of March) you go into a pending status for April and then you get dropped. You keep everything.
A new mini catalog will start in January and as a demo you’ll get to pre-order in December. And there is always the Sale-A-Bration promotion at the beginning of the year – great deals for customers and demonstrators during that time.
I have team meetings every other month and the next one is October 12th – right in the middle of this promotion. So plan to join me for the meeting and meet some wonderful ladies and have a fun evening getting creative! Let me know by Friday if you want to come.
I did a little bit of math – you might be saying “UGH” but I actually loved math when I was in school. And if you don’t want to read through the math part – at least read the last paragraph that I underlined.
1. Join for $25. Get $26.95 product plus business supplies.
2. First order $150+ within 30 days. Get 20% + 10% = 30% instant income (that’s $45) PLUS a free stamp set from the catalog any value (the most expensive set is $46.95) – and hostess benefits are $25 in product – so if you are the hostess you get that too.
3. Increase your first order to $250 placed in October – then you get bonus hostess rewards $40+$25 = $65! Plus the 30% off = $75! And the free stamp set.
product total = 26.95 + 46.95 + 250 + 65 = $388.90 in product
cost = $25 + 250 – 75 = $200 ( you have to add some shipping and tax – roughly less than $20)
So you are getting all of that product at almost half price. I think I figure it out to be about 56%. Plus you will continue to get a 20% discount as long as you are a demonstrator or more depending on your monthly sales.

These are some swap cards from my team meeting earlier this month.
Leishman’s swap card
Lisa’s swap card
Laree’s Swap card
Fran’s swap card
Fran used the Specialty Designer Paper in the Holiday catalog and it has foil in the design which seemed to cause me some issues with trying to get the photo edited. Sorry it isn’t a great picture of it.
My swap card was the Animal Talk card with the Circle Thinlit dies I posted last week.

Every other month I have a Team meeting for my downline, my sidelines, and any other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators in the area that need a group to be part of. I love this time together – we share not only business topics from Stampin’ Up! but creative ideas. It is a fun casual time where we can come together and do what we love. One of the optional things we do is have a swap – at the last meeting the swap theme was to take an idea from Pinterest or a crafting magazine or website and recreated with all Stampin’ Up! materials. It was really fun to see what everyone made. For some I have their inspiration but for some I don’t. And hopefully I have the correct name on each one too. Here we go.
Diane’s swap card
Anne’s swap card.
Becky’s swap card
Fran’s swap card.
Laree’s swap card.
Leishman’s swap.
Lisa’s swap card.
Monika’s swap – box from the Pop ‘n Cuts card base die.
I’ll share more about mine in another post.
I hope you took advantage of the Free shipping – it ends Monday night – April 8th – so hurry.

I have several fun cards to share today. These were the Make&Take projects from my last team meeting that I had earlier this month. I love having these meetings every other month – sharing with other demonstrators and creating together is always fun! Since its a demonstrator meeting we do cover business and Stampin’ Up! news but we also have a swap and we do Make&Takes. You have to have stamping because that’s the fun part! We normally have 4 projects – one was the little box of Love Notes I shared last week – that’s the one I created. These other three were shared by other demonstrators that come to my meeting.
Diane’s Make&Take featuring the Patterned Occasions stamp set from Sale-A-Bration.
Lisa’s Make & Take featuring the Chalkboard Technique and the More Amore Designer paper.
Cindy’s Make & Take card featuring lots of Sale-A-Bration products – Madison Avenue stamp set, Sycamore Street Designer paper, Sycamore Street Ribbon & Button pack, Vine Street Embossing folder.
I’d love for you to be part of my team – PAWS – Play A lot With Stamps! You can join now during Sale-A-Bration for $99 and you starter kit will include 25% more than normal – a total of $156.50 worth of Stampin’ Up! products that you get to choose. I have three new team members since Sale-A-Bration started – Welcome to Kimberly, Jennifer and Terri! On February 9th I’ll be having a new demonstrator training session. Join today and plan to come on the 9th!
