STAMPINUP

WWW STAMPINUP.....BECOMING A STAMPINUP DEMONSTRATOR




StampinUp - Why I Joined...

By Kelly Land, © 2009-2010, All rights reserved.


You guys that have been long time readers know that I am always looking for a fun home business. Something I will enjoy AND that will make me money. I believe in the concept of home businesses - and I believe there is something out there for everyone.

So....StampinUp.

I have always loved scrapbooking. I have always wanted to make pretty scrapbooks for my kids to have one day. To me...even in this day of video, internet, webcams.....I still think simple photos hold so much magic and memories.

Of course - I am so busy, like everyone else - I rarely have the time to do anything. Let alone sit and scrapbook, stamp and create.

This is where StampinUp has opened a door for me. The way I see it - not only will I earn money, but it will actually force me to take an interest and make the time to do something I love! Weird isn't it?? I know. Work = Joy

In this day and age where we are running in a million different directions - there never seems to be enough time. I always think.....tomorrow......this weekend...next week. And those days go by and I never make the time to do something I love....that's relaxing.

If we're not working, we're raising and caring for our kids (which is REAL work!) If we're not doing either of those things.....we're cleaning our houses, doing the laundry, running to the grocery store....
It's never ending.

So I decide this year....NO more. I WILL make the time to slow down....do something fun. I will relax, be creative and maybe even do something my daughter will enjoy too. All the while - I can still earn an income as well! Funny how I was looking for a way to relax - and lo and behold - I found something that is RELAXING and I can EARN CASH! A great combo in my world!

I researched MANY scrapbooking and stamping companies. M-A-N-Y!

But just one look at StampinUp's gorgeous, 200+ page, full color catalog and I was hooked.

Founded in 1988 (..remember 1988?? INXS, "I Need You Tonight", "Sweet Child O Mine", Guns and Roses??), StampinUp markets exclusive wood-mounted rubber stamps and accessories for use in arts and crafts, scrapbooking, making greeting cards, and home decoration. But they also have so much more. Everything you need to create scrapbooks, cards, calendars - in ways you never thought of! SO many ideas. StampinUp was founded by two sisters, which I think is cool as well. The company is strong financially and debt free. (Those are hard companies to find right now, eh?!)

With a wonderful hostess plan and many ways to sell - not just home parties.....I feel very strong that this is a company I can succeed with.

You can opt for an online StampinUp website ($12.95 a month) - which allows you to sell online - it's totally ecommerce ready!! This makes reaching the $300 a quarter quota much easier.

The kit is fabulous. Valued at over $330 retail --the kit is on sale right now for $169! (Regularly $199) And the kit is somewhat customizable too!! And once you're signed up - how about a 20% discount on anything you want to buy - and guess what - YOUR purchases as a demonstrator count as sales!!! You're not penalized for being your own hostess!

I could've talked myself out of signing up....sure. I could've sat on the fence and thought....gosh, should I?? But my personality is more...."What's the worst thing to come from this????" Well.....nothing. I get over $330 worth of scrapbooking and stamping supplies for $169?? But I'm also someone that is always looking at the money angle as well. I research work at home every day.....so I've seen just about everything. I have to see....in my mind - that it's a good fit for me. Is the company strong? Are there a variety of products and are they priced right? Is there strong support? Is the compensation plan fair? Can I sell online? Can I sign up others online? Is it something I will enjoy?

Yes! Yes! Yes!

All my questions were answered by YES!

Instead of "home parties", I'm going to be doing workshops and holding MeetUps in my area. (Oh no....you cringe!?)
To me this sounds wonderful. Working at home or being a stay at home mom can sometimes be a lonely gig. For me StampinUp is going to be an opportunity for me to meet other women in my area that want to get out of the house, socialize and create beautiful crafts, heirlooms and keepsakes. It's a chance for me to walk AWAY from the damn computer and do something ELSE!!!! At 42 years old....I'm realizing that my relationships with others - that's what's important. Connecting with others, sharing....building a life beyond the land of DOT COM - the REAL world!

Of course....we all have to have money. It is a necessary evil. I'm just like you - I have bills, kids....
I look at StampinUp as a way to bring in income, enjoy myself and build worthwhile relationships. My heart feels really good about StampinUp. I feel good about becoming a Demonstrator for them. It's like a ray of sunshine in the middle of winter!

I've already created a MeetUp in my area for fellow stampers and scrappers! I hope to do a monthly crop night and have light refreshments and show others a new technique or project. It's a wonderful way to share with others and offer them the products to create too. So much easier than a "home party". I've also started a stamping and scrapbooking club in my neighborhood! (Yes - I'm into it!! LOL)

I was feeling a little bit like January had passed me by - and there wasn't anything really exciting on the horizon. A whole new year - but nothing giving me a feeling of fun, of chance, of possibilities. I wanted something more than a "home business" (yawn!) I wanted something that filled an empty space in my life right now. I'm a busy, happy person - don't get me wrong. I'm not sitting in a dark corner on the verge of curling up in the fetal position and crying myself to sleep!! My life is good. But life has more to offer - life has a lot to offer....if you're looking, if you're open to it. I guess I was sending a message out there to the universe that my soul needed a little "somethin' somethin" - and the universe pointed me in a direction so unexpected. Wise universe!

Maybe you're feeling the same way? Maybe you can relate.
If so....we can share the StampinUp journey together. Maybe even win the trip to Jamaica that is being offered?? Yes...I can see us on the beach with our fruity drinks catching some sun!! LOL

I'm not here to hard sell anyone on StampinUp. But I do like to share what I am doing and why I am doing it. I think that helps others decide. You wouldn't be reading this newsletter is you weren't wanting to know how I was earning money from home!! And I'm not one to just say "sign up" - I have to explain to you my thought process and my reasons. Isn't that why you love me??? LOL

So...I am tickled. And maybe you are thinking....."this tickles me too!"

And guess what....StampinUp is open not only to the USA - but also to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany and The United Kingdom! Yep -- international! Very cool!

So I start my latest adventure. I haven't been excited like this for a long time. If StampinUp interests you - lets talk! If not - it is my true hope that you do find what you're heart truly needs and wants.

ON a final note....I forgot to mention in all my excitement...I'll be opening a scrapbooking and stamping site soon. Where everyone "crafty" can come hang out, share and have a good time. Stay tuned for that!
