I am Going for the Gold but I need some help

As most of you know I am a demonstrator for Stampin' Up! a great rubber stamp/paper crafting company.  I have been with them for about 14 years mainly as a hobby demo but for the last 5 years I have been trying to make this a business.  I am really close to my next goal of making the Gold Level. I have one person that will be making the Silver Elite and that means I can qualify for the Gold.  I just need a little help.  I have 10 ladies on my direct team but 3 of them will be dropping this month so I need to make up for them as I need 10 on my team.  I also need to sell an additional $1,500 this month to make it.  I really want to do this before our big 30th Anniversary Celebration in November.  So I really need your help.

To Join the Happening Stampers is really easy and Stampin' Up! made it great this month.

If you join this month you get a free Stamp Pad family, a $67.50 value.  You even get to choose the family all in-colors, regals, subtles, brights or neutrals.   They will all be the new style and with the new non foaming ink.  It gets even better you can choose $125 worth of any of the Stampin' Up! products just for $99.  Shipping is free so that is another $12.50 you are saving.

So  let's run this down for you.
You pay $99 for $125 worth of nay products Stampin' Up! Sells and you get $67.50 worth of free ink pads.  No SHipping cost just the cost of tax in your area.  Then after that when you order you get at least 20% off your order or you make at least 20% off what you sell to others.

Here are answers to some of the questions you may have about joining my team.  Or just e-mail me at marysstamping @ gmail.com Thanks for helping me out.

1. What are the minimum sales requirements?

You only need to submit $300 in sales per quarter. That is less than an average Stampin’ Up!® workshop!

Also, you can submit your sales in any increment you wish and still receive your 20 percent discount and

commission.

2. What if I want to do this as a hobby and not necessarily a business?

Stampin’ Up! supports all demonstrators, no matter their goals or the level at which they choose to run

their business. If you choose not to hold workshops, you can simply place your own orders and/or

collect orders from family and friends to equal the $300 quarterly sales minimum.

3. Can I be my own hostess?

Yes, you can be your own hostess anytime you want. Invite your family and friends into your home and

have a workshop. You will be the hostess, receiving the hostess benefits, as well as the demonstrator,

receiving your instant income and commission.

4. How much does it cost to get started as a demonstrator?

The Starter Kit is only $99, and is fully customizable. You choose up to $125 worth of any current

Stampin’ Up! products, and you will also receive a business supplies pack containing materials you need

to run your business (valued at $65).

5. How can I make money as a demonstrator?

You can earn money in three ways: instant income (20 percent of each order), monthly volume rebates

(5–20 percent of total sales), and monthly downline override commissions (2–6.5 percent of your

recruits’ sales).

6. Do I have to recruit other demonstrators?

No. If you were to recruit demonstrators, you would be paid override commissions on your downline’s

sales, but this is a perk, not a requirement.

7. Where will I get project ideas for my workshops? What kind of training can I expect?

Stampin’ Up! provides dozens of training resources filled with project ideas and tips to help you run

every aspect of your business, including a monthly publication called Stampin’ Success, Demonstrator

Support agents, a demonstrator-only website, hundreds of samples, annual and seasonal catalogs, a

training DVD, the Demonstrator Manual, and a Product Guide.

8. Is Stampin’ Up! a well-known, respected company?

Since 1988, Stampin’ Up! has been selling rubber stamps and paper-crafting supplies. In that time, not

only have we won industry awards and accolades, but also the loyalty and admiration of demonstrators

and customers alike. And that is a trend that we work hard to maintain. You can rest assured that the

reputation of Stampin’ Up! will only continue to improve!

9. What if I decide that I don’t like it once I’ve started? Will I be penalized if I quit?

You may choose to stop at anytime, and you will not be penalized. You simply stop placing orders.

However, there are many benefits to remaining an active demonstrator.
