FAQs

I know signing up to something new can be daunting and we all worry there may be a ‘catch’.  I hope the information below will answer any questions or worries you may have.
Q. Do I have to sell or teach?

Not at all!  You can be your best customer and enjoy the 20% discount and additional benefits all demonstrators receive (this is how I started!)  You’ll get exclusive access to the Stampin’ Up! demonstrator website, online groups and become part of a fun crafting community.

Q. What do I get in my Starter Kit and how much does it cost to join?

For  £99 (129€) you choose £130 (175€) worth of Stampin’ Up! products – your starter kit is totally customisable and you can choose anything from the current range. You’ll also be sent a business pack worth £45 (60€) to get you started *Occasionally there are special joining offers, check my special offers page for details.

Q. I’m not local to you, can I still join your team?

Absolutely.  You can join my team wherever you live in the UK, The Netherlands, France, Germany and Austria.  You will receive my full support and training thanks to technology!

Q. I’m thinking about teaching classes in the future but just want to buy for myself for now.  Is it easy to make that transition at a later date?

Absolutely!  We are all called demonstrators whether we join to get discounts for our hobby, make projects for friends and family or if we want to build a business.  You’re in control and I’m here to give you my full support whichever route you choose.

Q. Are there any sales targets?

There are no targets to meet or pressure to sell when you join.  You can be your own best customer and enjoy the discounts and other demonstrator perks.  We get to see new catalogues and order from them in advance of public release.  There are online events you can choose to be part of (in person ones when we’re not in Covid times).  If you fancy continuing as a demonstrator after a few months, there is a minimum quarterly requirement but at this point, you can choose to continue or not.  It’s always your choice.

Can I earn some money?

Absolutely!  You can start a small business either when you join or further down the line.  I’m here to offer you support and training all the way.  You earn a % of any orders placed with you and there are achievable incentives from Stampin’ Up! as well as my own team incentives.  You can simply share catalogues with friends and family, create classes and/or build an online community.

Q. I’m not sure I can meet the minimums.  Where can I get ideas to help me?

As your upline, I’m here to help you and that includes sharing ways to meet your minimums.  Your own purchases count towards your minimums as well as orders from friends, family and customers.  You’ll find other demonstrators are a great source of inspiration too and we have access to demonstrator exclusive groups.

Q. What if I decide I no longer want to be a demonstrator.

That’s fine – you just do nothing and keep everything you’ve bought to date.  At the end of the current quarter, you would go into pending if you haven’t met your minimums, then you would become ‘inactive’ the following month.  There’s never any pressure to stay although of course I’d love you to stay in my team!

Q. If I leave can I rejoin in the future?

Yes, you can drop and join immediately again with the same upline or after 90 days with a different upline.

Q. Do I have to recruit other demonstrators

Not at all – there’s never any pressure to do anything you don’t want to. Having a downline is not a requirement but it is a great perk – it gives us the opportunity to earn a commission based on our downline’s sales. It’s also a responsibility as you will need to support your team and provide them with training to help them achieve their goals.

Q. Do I need to hold stocks of products.

No, customers order through you either directly or online and pay you at point of ordering.  There’s no financial risk for you as you only order once you’ve received an order from your customer or whenever you want to place your own order.
