Since today is
World Card Making Day, I thought it would be a good day to ask you to consider making EVERY day a card making day.
Stampin' Up! is offering an amazing, hard to refuse joining incentive for the entire month of October.
There are two joining choices, but I want to show you how one choice may be better than the other.
First, here are the two incredible "best offers EVER":
- Pay $35 & choose $125 worth of products!!! or
- Pay $99 & choose $189 worth of products!!!
- For both choices, you’ll enjoy free shipping, a complimentary Paper Pumpkin kit, and catalogs to share.
Both choices are
fantastic!
Here's how the first choice may be better than the second:
Pay only $35 and choose $125 of products. Then, take the additional $64 that you would have spent on the second $99 choice and place your first order under yourself (as a demonstrator). You'll save 20%
right away (saving yourself $12.80) and that $64 will go towards not only your quarterly minimums (to stay an active demonstrator) but will also go towards the threshold that will convert your 20% discount into 25%. This percentage is for both your discount and income of when someone orders from you. Believe me, that extra 5% makes a big difference.
Saving money is a great reason to
join, but there are also so many other great reasons too.
- Community. Stampin’ Up! offers a space where a community of crafters from all over the world can connect and create together, both in person and virtually. I offer my team of stampers support, coaching, monthly zoom meetings, quarterly swaps and direct access.
- Product. Unlike customers, demonstrators get early access to the latest releases and catalogs, as well a 20–25%
product discount and commission.
- Experiences. Enjoy creative and fun crafting experiences and connections in a Demonstrator-only Facebook group.
- Empowerment. Being a demonstrator can mean so much more than just crafting. It can also mean personal development and expanding your circle to include other people and new experiences.
- Inspiration. Stampin’ Up! and other Demonstrators will inspire you to create, learn
and “better your best” all throughout the year with their weekly emails, facebook group and videos.
- Supplemental Income. Demonstrators have the potential to earn a modest and/or supplemental income and run their business on a flexible schedule. If you choose to turn your crafting hobby into a business, I can help you. But you don't have to to be a business demonstrator, you can be any type of demonstrator you want to be from hobbyist to business to top
performer.
- Perks. This incredible join offer is the first of many perks.

New Demonstrator FAQ
Q: How much does it cost to become a demonstrator?
A: Starter Kits are a great value at $99 (regular cost) and we throw in business supplies and FREE shipping as an added bonus.
Q: Are there any minimum sales requirements?
A: To continue to receive your discount and other demonstrator perks, you need to submit $300 in sales per quarter.
Sales can be submitted in any amount—in other words, you don’t have to submit a $300 order all at once—and both your personal purchases and customer orders count toward your minimum. Exceptions include demonstrator business supply items, but nearly everything you purchase or sell will count.
You can make these purchases yourself, of course, but sharing the fun of stamping with others can help you meet your minimum sales requirement
Q: What happens if I don’t meet minimums or need to drop? Are there penalties?
A: If for any reason you decide to stop meeting your quarterly minimum sales requirement, you’ll lose your active status and “drop” as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. However, you will not be penalized and can sign up
again any time! If you choose to come back, you can re-join with your current team leader. Please note that if you choose to sign up under a new team leader, there is a short waiting period.
Q: What are the perks of joining?
A: As a new demonstrator with the Bronze title, you will receive a 20% discount. You’ll get VIP access and be first to see new products, have the opportunity to attend company events, and be part of a creative
community that spans the globe. You’ll also have access to demonstrator-only Facebook groups, training resources like Stampin’ University and Succeed Weekly (our weekly demonstrator email), the opportunity to have your own online demonstrator storefront via Demonstrator Business
Web Services (DBWS), and more. In addition, you’ll have access to our world-class Demonstrator Support and Demonstrator Experience teams who are available to help you with everything from placing orders to leveling up
your business.
Q: What are some of the ways I can participate as a demonstrator?
A: One of the best things about being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is that you get to choose your own adventure!
You can simply enjoy the products and crafting on your own—or you can share with others, bringing friends together to share products and creative experiences. And, as mentioned earlier, their purchases can help you meet your
minimums.
Over time, you may want to expand your crafting circle and become an influencer—adding a few customers and earning a modest, supplemental income. Eventually, you could even decide to become a business builder with a team of your own.
Choose whatever Stampin’ Up! adventure suits you best and tailor your experience to meet your lifestyle!
Q: Do I have to sell or build a team?
A: No! Feel free to choose your own
adventure and run your Stampin’ Up! business YOUR way! In fact, all it takes to remain an active demonstrator is meeting the quarterly sales requirement. If you prefer, you can place your own orders and/or collect orders from family and friends to equal the quarterly sales minimum.
If you decide that you’d like to build a team of your own, there are benefits! One of them is the friendships that you can enjoy as you share Stampin’ Up! experiences together. Another is being able to qualify for
team commissions on product orders that your team member(s) submit.
Q: Who is Stampin’ Up! and why would I want to join as a demonstrator?
A: Stampin’ Up! is an inclusive, global community made up of independent demonstrators and their customers—paper crafters who support one another in creativity and in life! Many come to us for our products and then join because of the connection and relationships they find. As a Stampin’ Up!
demonstrator, you’ll be making a difference in people’s lives by helping them enjoy fun, worthwhile accomplishments using high-quality stamps, ink, and paper. Stampin’ Up! has been selling stamps and paper crafting supplies in North America for over 35 years—since 1988! During that time, we’ve won industry awards and accolades, gained loyal demonstrators and customers, and expanded to Europe and the South Pacific.
I Love Being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator!
For
almost 19 years, I have been a demonstrator and Stampin’ Up! has sparked my creativity, connected me with amazing people, and fostered personal growth and leadership. I love connecting with and getting to know so many crafters from around the world, near and far. It’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Questions? Let’s connect at christine@mailsomethingpretty.com
Last year during the Sale-a-bration join promotion, I had a conversation with my friend Ann who is also a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in Australia. We talk about why we each joined, what we love, what keeps us inspired and why it’s so great being a demonstrator. Sit back and enjoy our hour plus conversation and hopefully it will answer some of your questions and motivate you to join too.
