Frequently Asked Questions about Joining Stampin’ Up!

Let me explain how it works and what benefits you can expect that you maybe are not aware of.

Why should I join?

Let me tell you why I joined first.

I work part time for an advocacy charity (home based) doing admin, finances, website and social media, graphic design, reception duties and more šŸ’» I found Stampinā€™ Up! By accident in 2018 and joined as a demo within a few weeks of that! Iā€™ve never looked back.

Doing all I do in my role as an upline and demonstrator takes my mind off some health issues (most of us crafters have them, letā€™s be honest). In more recent times, an even bigger gap is being filled as my boys are older and more independent are are always busy out playing or out working.

It also gives me a sense of purpose, allows me to inspire and make people feel included and that they too have a purpose.

The role is so rewarding, and I love everything about it āœ‚šŸŽØšŸ“š. I am continually learning and being inspired myself, on a daily basis.

The friendships Iā€™ve made and the feeling of belonging in the wider SU community is amazing.

But letā€™s not forget the ease of use of all of our coordinating products, kits and more makes the journey so much easier.

My little business is part time as I work around my day job and also my up and down days.

I really canā€™t recommend this role enough and if youā€™re seriously thinking about joining my team please do get in touch

Did you know, yellow is my favourite colour?!

Do I need to make this a business?

Simple answer is no.

If you are joining to be a discount shopper / hobbyist you will still receive all the exclusive opportunities and discounts as a business builder would.

However, if you want to take your crafting further and make a business out of it you will still receive all of the above benefits but will also have the chance to:

  • Increase your instant commission and progress your title within Stampin’ Up!
  • Earn volume rebates
  • If you grow a team of your own, there’s team commissions too as well as rewards for team progress!
  • Free spend in the catalogue based on your Sale-a-bration sales levels
  • Everything you need to run your business successfully is available from Stampin’ Up! – Ideas, incentives, client management programmes, online leads – the list goes on!

I would love to do Social Media but don’t know how?

If you wish help with this, I’ll help you through the basics to get you started whether this is a blog, YouTube channel or simply a Facebook page or group.  Even if you don’t want to start a business, you can still make yourself known on Social Media to showcase your creations – why not?!?

I do not want to run a Business does that matter?

No – it doesn’t matter – you can still be a part of my team simply for the discount and benefits as mentioned above – All of my team receive the same support and encouragement from myself whether hobbyist or business.  And, if you change your mind further down the road and want to try running a business I can support you then too.

Do I need to live near you?

No – you can live anywhere in the UK, France, Germany, Austria or the Netherlands – you’ll still be very welcome wherever you live! You will still receive the same support – everyone is equal in my team.

What support will I receive?

As a team leader I strive on equal opportunity and support for all of my team members. In #teamsmithy you will hear from me regularly unless I am on holiday, whether this is via online support, email, text, phone, face to face of via our #teamsmithy demonstrator Facebook Group Page. I’ll support you extra in the early days till you feel comfortable enough in your new role. We are also using Zoom more recently for Team Meetings which are working really well.

What are minimum sales values?

All demonstrators world wide have a minimum CSV order value to meet each quarter (our financial year runs in quarters Jan Feb Mar / Apr May Jun / Jul Aug Sep / Oct Nov Dec).

As a new demonstrator joining part way through a quarter  you will receive the remainder of that quarter as a grace period (meaning no minimum sales values apply) plus the next quarter to meet your minimum sales values.  The minimum sales value for all demonstrators across the globe is 300 CSV (cumulative sales value). In the UK this converts to around Ā£274 but after your discount is applied, it amounts to approximately Ā£230 minimum sales per quarter. It does sound a lot but if you break it down into weekly spend this equates to Ā£17.70 per week – I know I could easily have spent this and more on crafts out of the cheap shops and alike in one week.  Let’s just say my spending is far more controlled and specific now which suits me better.

What if I can’t meet my minimums?

I would recommend, in the first instance, that you contact me and we can discuss together and look at ways of getting those sales in.
If you can’t meet your minimums within a quarter you will go into “pending/inactive” status for a further month after that quarter ends. This is to give you that little bit extra time to meet your minimums – it would be such a shame to lose someone as a demonstrator for example, if they were Ā£20 short on their figures – the pending month could allow you that extra few weeks to find more sales either from a customer or from your own order  If you still fail to meet your minimums at the end of the pending month your status will change from pending to dropped.
But don’t worry, you can join again at a later date.

Can I change my mind?

Yes you can  – when you sign up you will be required to read and acknowledge via tick box the online independent demonstrator agreement (IDA) that sets out all of the requirements and contract information including details of the cooling off period. Please ensure that you read these terms and conditions.

e requirements and contract information including details of the cooling off period. Please ensure that you read these terms and conditions.

Anything Else?

Well yes, a little hint for you, when you have decided to join and have everything set up, you may wish to sign up for our DBWS (Demonstrator Business Web Site) and get first two months free. When setting up your DBWS account you will be asked to name your account, using your name is absolutely fine, however, if you are wanting a business out of this, this is a good point to pick your business name and incorporate this when setting up your DBWS account.  For example: smithscraftycreations, Caroline’s Crafts, StevenStamps, etc. Please do not include words “Stampin” or “Stampin’ Up!” in your shop name as it’s against policy.

One last thing…

Before clicking on the JOIN THE FUN option you will be required to set up as a customer first, you can do this by visiting my Stampin’ Up! Shop Page and Creating an Account.  Make sure that you see my details in the top right hand corner TRICIA SMITH.

What are you waiting for?  I can’t wait to help you through your crafting journey! Join my team today šŸ™‚
