Time Flies

Wow, what a couple of crazy busy weeks it's been.  After convention and the incentive trip reveal (a cruise to Italy, France and Spain!!!) I dove in head first and haven't come up for air yet.  I'm determined to work hard the next year to earn the cruise.  My first step was to register for several booths.  I've already been contacting my friends, family and neighbors to get interest in Stampin' Up!  I feel like I need to broaden my horizons in order to earn the cruise and have a profitable business.

This past week I have participated in 3 booths all in different cities.  I think I may have been a bit over ambitious with that.  However it was also a great learning experience.  It's always a success when you can learn from your experiences and improve on the next opportunities you're given.

 
Stampin' Up! is really stepping it up this month as well with some amazing promotions.  If you sign up for a started kit before August 28th you'll get an extra $25 of free product.  And the best part is that you can pick the product you want.  This also ships without any shipping fees and there's no obligation to sell.  You can sign up for the discount, as a hobby demonstrator, or to build a successful career.  Have questions?  Don't hesitate to ask as this deal expires in a few short days.

We have super exciting news from the home office! The Short & Sweet recruiting promotion is here! It IS short: It only lasts from August 21-28. And it IS sweet: New recruits will receive $150 in their choice of Stampin' Up! products for the $99 starter kit price. Your new recruit won't have to pay for shipping either! It's a great deal, amazing business opportunity, AND it's only available for a short time, so get the word out now! Contact past hosts/hostesses, talk to customers that have been waiting to join, or simply talk to everyone so they don't miss a great deal. There's nothing better for new recruits than getting extra starter kit product for their new business. But act now, because this special only lasts until August 28! Another awesome promotion is the Big Shot promotion.  These are amazing and can cut all kinds of things from fabric to very thin wood and everything in between.  These are very versatile and a must have for any crafter.  Since you can buy as many bundles as your heart desires with this promotion it's a great way to get going on your holiday shopping.
