There are many Stampin' Up! demonstrators all over the country - some are career-oriented women with huge teams and some are only 'Hobby Demonstrators'. If you love to stamp, becoming a 'Hobby Demonstrator' may be for you...and who knows? It could turn into a career!! Here is the scoop:
1. What are the minimum sales requirements?
You only need to submit $300 in sales per quarter. Submit your sales in any increment you wish and still receive your 20 % 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, or place your own order equaling $150 or higher to receive these benefits.
4. Explain to me how the 30% Discount on my first order works?
Once you sign up, you have 45 days from that date to place a $150. or higher order and receive a 30% discount on the entire order (plus hostess benefits). If you need a small amount of supplies before you are ready to place this order, you can order then without forfeiting this Special Offer.
5. How much does it cost to get started as a demonstrator?
The Starter Kit is only normally $175.00, and it includes everything you will need to get your business up and running, including stamp sets, ink, paper, catalogs, order forms, a training video, and more ($310 value). You have your choice between the Standard Starter Kit or the My Digital Studio Starter Kit, and if you’re interested in scrapbooking, you can also select the Stampin’ Memories Add-On for an additional $50 ($80 value).
UNTIL MARCH 31st, the standard starter kit is only $125!! PLUS, you qualify for either one free MDS download or one free package of designer series paper every month for the rest of 2012!!
6. 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 percent of your recruits’ sales).
7. 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.
8. 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 web site, hundreds of samples, annual and seasonal catalogs, a training DVD, the Demonstrator Manual, and a Product Guide.
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. No – you do not have to return your starter kit – it is yours to keep and enjoy!
Additional Perks:
When the new Idea Book and Catalog comes out, you receive a FREE copy.
You get ALL the mini catalogs well before customers do and you get a pre-order one month in advance of the catalog going live. (this is an excellent opportunity to get your classes designed and ready for when the catalog goes live – if you decide to be a Business Builder Demonstrator – or as a Hobby Demonstrator – you get to create with the stamp sets before anyone else even gets to buy them).
Periodically Stampin Up will offer additional discounts and incentives to their demonstrators such as discounts on bundled packages, discounts on new stamp releases, etc.
* You Get to attend Local Regional Events in your area.
