January Newsletter-Stampin' Up! Happenings

STAMPIN’ UP HAPPENINGS
2008 SPRING-SUMMER COLLECTIONS
The new catalogs have arrived! I am totally in love with it. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical about the “two catalogs a year” thing but after viewing this one and listening to a teleconference with Shelli, owner of SU!, I can see where they are going with the changes they are making.
#1…this allows them to keep up with the most current trends more frequently than once a year. #2…it allows for more season books. #3…any new stamp sets introduced in the new catalog WILL BE available for 12 months… they may not be listed in the next catalog but will remain on the dormant list for a minimum of 12 months. This is great to know as you are not “squeezed” into a 6 month time frame for the “gotta haves” on your wish list! :o)
What is new? Rub-ons, felt flowers, new scrapping kits, awesome new sets and 12 x 12 cardstock back in all colors!

WHY ALL THE CHANGES?
Stampin’ Up! is commited to Statement of the Heart…
TO LOVE WHAT WE DO
AND SHARE WHAT WE LOVE,
AS WE HELP OTHERS ENJOY CREATIVITY
AND WORTHWHILE ACCOMPLISHMENTS…
IN THIS WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
They are also interested in keeping with the constant changing in the field of scrapping and stamping. At the time that they decided to cancel all the 12 x 12 in all colors they felt they were making a good business decision based on the sales of those items. However, as the past 6 months passed they realized that it was not a wise decision…and they heard the voices of demos and customers alike. Thus, those items are back.
Have you ever tried to please everyone in your family? At work? Even within your home business? You can not please everyone all the time. With 50,000 demonstrators and 100’s of 1000’s of customers there is no way for SU! to please everyone. They are keeping an open mind and an open ear to what people have to say. There are bound to be growing pains with any changes that are made…whether it is in your home life, work life or fun life. Please be patient as they continue to grow into being one of the top home-based sales companies!

SALE-A-BRATION DATES
February 1-March 17, 2008
There are a couple of changes with Sale-A-Bration. The first you may have noticed is the name! It is no longer SELL-A-BRATION but SALE-A-BRATION. SELL makes you think of SELLING but SALE means WOOHOO! What more can I say-what woman doesn’t like a SALE????
They also changed the dates and length of time. The reason for the change is because of the release of the new Spring-Summer Collections catalog.
The FREE stuff is the same….$50 purchase or $300 show is a FREE SAB stamp set. If you sign on as a demonstrator you have your choice of any stamp set in the book valued up to $47.95! What an awesome way to begin your business!

ALL IN THE FAMILY PROMOTION
As some of you know the General Manager of SU! Australia passed away unexpectedly leaving behind a young family. For every All In The Family set sold for one month all proceeds went to his family…over $250,000! Way to go SU!
