Why You Should Host a Workshop

There are many different types of stamping events - some people pay to attend and some are intended as sales parties. The Workshop is a sales party and you should host one in your home because its a fun way to introduce your friends to stamping and to Stampin'UP! and to earn FREE product for yourself based on sales at your event. Its like having a Tupperware Party or Papmered Chef Party, except people get to make stuff and take home something they created. If you have fun stamping, you'll have even more fun sharing the hobby with your friends. Imagine how fun if you owned the same stamp set as a friend and you could share ideas for how to use it. And NOW is the time to schedule your event. During Sale-a-bration hostesses earn an extra Sale-a-bration item if the party sales are over $300.

Tell each of your prospective guests about Sale-a-bration. Tell them that if they purchase $50 in product they earn a FREE STAMP SET from the sale-a-bration list. Tell them they can easily put together a $50 order just by stocking up on paper, ribbon and embellishments for the year. You'd need just 6 guests each placing a sale-a-bration order to reach the $300 level. You would then qualify for an exclusive hostess stamp set, $35 in free catalog product and a free Sale-a-bration item.

You may be worried that you couldn't find 6 people to attend. I can help you make your  list. But seriously, this just isn't a problem. Take some cards with you to work and as you run errands. Show them to your friends and family and tell them about sale-a-bration. You'll be surprised at how many people either do stamp or would like to learn more. I can suggest starter bundles to your guests who are new to stamping to help them reach a sale-a-bration order.

And if having an actual gathering doesn't work for you, then you can do a "Book Party". Show the catalog to your friends and gather orders from them. If you gather over $150 in sales you earn hostess benefits. If you gather over $300 in sales you also earn the sale-a-bration hostess benefit. Contact me if you need catalogs to show. I can place your order for you. Or you can place it yourself online at my Stampin'UP! website.

Contact me today to schedule your event. But do HURRY because Sale-a-bration ends at the end of March. Call 608-220-3450 or email me.

I can't wait to show you and your friends some of the great Stampin'UP! product. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon.
