Becoming A Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Hi 

The idea of Joining anything raises questions about what you are actually agreeing to. It's sensible that we do carefully consider what we are committing to & something I certainly did before taking the plunge & Joining as a Demonstrator. With each Joining Promotion the questions as to whether or not it is a good idea remain the same. Therefore the purpose of this Post is not to look at the current Joining offer but rather to consider the Pros & Cons of becoming a Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator.

So, here goes.....................

As I have said many times Joining at anytime makes perfect sense when you consider the Starter Kit costs £99 & you get to choose £130 of Products from the current Catalogues. You also receive some handy Business supplies including Catalogues plus your Kit is sent to you without charge for P&P. However during a Joining Promotion there is always even greater value for the price you pay for the Starter Kit.

So, let's focus on the Pros & Cons of being a Demonstrator:-

PROS 

Discount on Craft Supplies

Stampin' Up! Training Events

Pre Order on New Catalogues

Demonstrator Rewards

Home Based Craft Business (if you want)

Becoming part of a like minded community

CONS

NONE!!

SO, WHAT ABOUT THE COMMITMENT?

Well to remain an Active Demonstrator you will need to put through Sales each Quarter of around £280.00. (This total includes what you purchase for yourself as well as what you sell to others)

Are you reading this thinking I fancy £130 of Products for the cost of the Starter Kit (plus extras if you sign up during a Joining Promotion), BUT, there's no way I can generate sales of around £280 a quarter. (Can I just say you may well be surprised about what you can achieve just by sharing your love of Paper Crafting with Friends, Family, Neighbours & Work Colleagues)
But, I can appreciate that the sensible question to ask at this point is WHAT IF I DON'T MAKE THOSE SALES???

Well, the simple answer is - no worries!

This is why Joining is simply Win Win.

In addition to having 3 Months (a Quarter) to achieve your required Sales, if you do not reach your target within the Quarter you also receive a Month of Pending Status giving you the opportunity to meet the target. If after a month in Pending you have still been unable to meet the required target, then you just simply drop from being a Demonstrator - NO PRESSURE & NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

I know that we are frequently warned that if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is, but not so with signing up to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, it really is as easy & transparent as outlined above.

Stampin' Up! Quarters run from October - December, January - March, April - June & July to September. There's even more good news - you are not required to meet your quarterly Target in the first Quarter in which you join. 

So, for example purposes Join in October & you have until the end of March to put through the required Quarterly Sales. If you haven't achieved your Target by then April would be your Pending Month. 

As outlined in the PROS Section above there are also other benefits to Joining.

At the beginning of 2022 I celebrated my 5th Anniversary as an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, my only regret - I didn't sign up sooner!! 

Not only do I of course get to buy all of my Papercrafting supplies at a discount, I've got to know some lovely people who in my everyday life I would never have met. I've also enjoyed some fabulous Stampin' Up! Events & above all I love being associated with a Company who really does its utmost to "Make A Difference"
