Q: What is the Luv 2 Stamp Demonstrator Group?
A: The Luv 2 Stamp Demonstrator Group is run by my upline, Patty Bennett. There are so many benefits to being a part of this group. She hosts an online Facebook community for us to share projects and business ideas. This group is available to demonstrators who join directly under me (as well as one more level down.) Here are a few benefits you’ll get from having access to the Luv 2 Stamp Group:
- Luv 2 Stamp Facebook Group. This group is about sharing projects and ideas with other demos from all over the country.
- Weekly live Demonstrator meeting led by Patty with all the important updates from Stampin’ Up! followed by team news and project inspiration.
- Monthly Prize Patrol challenges. Some months Patty offers a prize to everyone who participates, other months there is a raffle for those who complete the challenge, and then there are a few months that don’t have a prize but still provide motivation to create and will make you feel good about completing the challenge.
- Exclusive Team (online) events with lots of card-making and project inspiration. These events include an additional fee.
Q: I’m not local, can I still join with you?
A: Absolutely, as long as you are in the United States. The ideas, training, support and online community are available to everyone near and far.
Q: What if I only want to do this as a hobby. Do I have to hold classes or sell product?
A: Absolutely not!! Stampin’ Up! supports the hobby demonstrator just as well as the business demonstrator. You can put in your own orders or collect orders from family & friends to help meet the minimum quarterly requirements.
Q: What are the minimum sales requirements?
A: You have to submit $300 in sales per quarter to remain active. You can drop anytime without a penalty. The $300 quota is based on retail sales, but you receive 20% off for personal purchases and it still counts at the retail price. So with your Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Discount you would need to spend/sell at least $240 each quarter. You do not have to meet this requirement until the first full quarter you are a demonstrator. For example, if you join in July, then you would need to submit enough sales by the end of the October-December quarter.
Quarters run:
- January – March
- April – June
- July-September
- October – December
- The quarter you join in is waived.
- Your personal purchases count, as well as any sales to customers.
- If you don’t make the quota, you are not penalized. If this happens you would simply go inactive and become a customer again. There are no penalties other than not getting the discount and bonus demo benefits. There is no pressure to keep purchasing product.
