Stampin’ Up!’s Current Promotions

The Sale-a-bration Promotion Keeps getting better!

If you read through my other posts regarding sale-a-bration, you will see that there is a ton of fun stuff for everyone in this promotion.

I would like to discuss the advantages to joining my team during Sale-a-bration.

1. Starter Kit
   1. In and of itself, the Starter Kit is an awesome package for a demonstrator. The starter kit includes all the materials you need to get started – you will get stamp stuff and business stuff. That way, no matter what kind of demonstrator you would like to be, you are ready!
   2. The starter kit includes over $300 in stamp stuff. The regular price for the kit is $199. It is on sale for 15% off RIGHT NOW. That figures out to be $169. You cannot beat that. You will only pay your tax rate on top of that – no shipping or handling charges for you.
   3. The starter kit can be customized. If you are a seasoned stamper and know what you like, you might want to customize the kit. If you are new to stamping and don't really know what to order, order the kit as it is. Stampin' Up! has done all the homework for you and put together an awesome kit.
2. Picking who YOU want to be!
   1. That is the beauty of being a demonstrator. Some would say – you get to be your own boss. I say – you get to pick who you want to be. And, you can change that every day if you wish.
   2. Sometimes I get this question – what kind of penalty is there if I don't sell a ton of this stuff? What if life gets in the way? What will happen to me? The answer to all of these questions – ABSOLUTELY nothing!! I won't penalize you. Stampin' Up! won't penalize you!
   3. So, pick who you want to be.
      1. Be a hobby demonstrator. That is the one who buys stuff to support their hobby.
      2. Be the demonstrator who orders things for yourself, your mom, and your mother in law (that is who I was when I started!!) Order enough to get a few things free for yourself or pay for a household bill.
      3. Be the demo who actively recruits, has parties and earns a TON of free stuff. The FREE stuff comes in a lot of ways – MONEY, STAMPS, and TRIPS! That is where I am at today. Will I stay here? Who knows? If we all knew what life would hand us tomorrow, we could make really good plans! In my heart this is where I like to be. Will it always work for my family? I am not sure. That is the beautiful thing about Stampin' Up! I can change my mind when I want to!
3. How hard is it to do this?
   1. First, you need to sign up. Go to www.sandyh.stampinup.net. There is a link in the top right hand corner for Join Now. Click it. You will need a passcode – it is stampinsandy.
   2. Second, it is not hard. Go back to #2. Figure out who you want to be. Make sure you let me know who you are J. I will help you get there!!
   3. Third, schedule your first party. If you live close, I'll be there. If you are long distance – I will be there in technology – e-mails, calls, etc. go a long ways. Need special things – I'll put them in the mail for you. The only restriction – I can only sign up demos from the United States (since that is where I am – Stampin' Up! restriction, not mine).
   4. Wait for your Starter Kit to come. You don't have to wait long. It'll be on your front door from the Man in Brown in no time!
4. Can you get a hold of me? Absolutely!! My phone number is 605.366.4059. E-mail is sandy@stampinsandy.com. I'd LOVE to hear from you!!!!!!

Thanks for reading through my book J. I can't wait to hear from you.

Want to be a member? And, get an AWESOME welcome package from me?

A member of my Stampin' Up! family? The nice thing about joining my stampin' family – is you get to choose to join. In real "families" we are "placed" in a family. You know the saying – you can pick your friends not your family? Well, I guess Stampin' Up! wasn't around then :-).

Tomorrow, October 11 is the LAST day to get in on the $99 kit special. With the $99 kit special, you can choose if you would like to join my family as a card maker, scrapbooker, or home décor person. You will choose your kit based on which kind of member you would like to be. Stampin' Up! has created a document and you can view it here.

When gals first think about signing up, the first question I get is "How busy are you?" I take this to mean – how much time do I have to put into this? The answer – you can be as busy as you want. I am busy, but that is what I want. If you don't want to be busy, you don't have to be. And, your success as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is NOT based on how busy you are. Your success is determined by YOU – what are your goals? Work your hardest to meet those goals. If your goal is to buy your stuff at a 20% (up to 40%) discount, go for it. Put in an order here and there. Get this discount. Create away. Order more. That is all there is for a commitment. If your goal is to earn the incentive trip (I LOVE my trips – free vacation me Tom and I for a week every year), then yes, you will have to be a bit busier. Whatever your goal (hobby demo to full time job), I am here to help you EACH step of the way. And, in my eyes, you will be successful at whatever level you choose!

A little about me and why I became a demo. I became a demo because I was being laid off from my job. The only reason I signed up was to have my mom and mother in law buy stamps from me. I figured I could use the profit from those sales to buy my stuff. Without a job, I didn't know if I would have money to buy stamps. And, I KNEW I could NOT live without new stampining stuff. That was goal #1 (get free stuff) November 24 of 2003. Well, a dear friend Mary said, "I'll have a party for you." What? It is that easy? I DID it!! And, I did a couple of more parties. And, I was having a blast!! And, I met a lot of awesome ladies. And, now I am ADDICTED to parties. I just LOVE getting together with people. I LOVE meeting new people. Did I think I would do that? Absolutely not!! Is it OK to change your goal? ABSOLUTELY!! Could I change my goal with life? Absolutely! Many gals change their goals from time to time based on family needs. Families are what make this business work the way YOU want! You work from home, you are gone only when you want to be gone, etc. It is TOTALLY your business and you ARE the boss!

Stampin' Up! has made it very easy to sign up. You can go to my website www.sandyh.stampinup.net. Click the Join Now button. Enter the password (stampinsandy). Choose your kit. It will show up at your doorstep. What a deal. As always, there is a ton of value in these kits.

Yes – and the welcome package? Stuff that you can use!! I will send you 20 hand stamped cards, 10 12 x 12 scrapbook pages or a Décor Elements for your front door (see this picture – you choose the Initial). You will stuff to get your creative juices flowing right away!! Don't delay! Join NOW with the $99 kit option.
