FREE BIG SHOT PROMOTION CONTINUES TIL 11/15/11

FREE Big Shot Promotion continues!

I am so happy to share that Stampin' Up! has extended this amazing deal through November 15th. Choose either a FREE Big Shot or $100 in FREE SU product when you become a SU Demonstrator. So if you are kicking yourself for not joining last month, you have a little more than a week left to get in on it!

You actually get over $400 in product and a few business supplies for just $175. So if you need that extra little push, here it is...... can you feel it?

The benefits of signing up are incredible:

- 20% off of every order (and 30% off your first order over $150 in the first 45 days)

- The chance to order sneak peaks from all of our new catalogs year around!

- A Starter Kit worth $445 including the special offer that costs just $175 and the shipping is free (even for that free added Big Shot machine or $100 in bonus stamping goodies.)

- A low $300 minimum per quarter -- with no requirement to meet that until your first full quarter as a demonstrator. So for people who sign up in October or November, that means you only have to sell $300 total by end of March 2012. And remember when you are done, you just stop ordering. It's that simple.
and you get my help and if you are local you can attend monthly meeting and the more you do your business the more you get rewarded and i send monthly ideas to you and i am just a phone call away

DO YOU WANT A FREE BIG SHOT????

Big Shot Recruiting Promotion


Dates: October 1-31, 2011

Promotion Details: The Big Shot is a big deal! And during October, when you help your customers explore their own creativity by introducing them to the Stampin' Up! opportunity, they'll get a FREE Big Shot (or up to $100 in free Stampin' Up! products) when they join the Stampin' Up! family! Start your Stampin' Up! year strong, while sharing the fun and creativity of Stampin' Up! products with your friends, family, and neighbors.

Things to Remember

Product Bonus

•Any new recruit who signs up during the promotion period will receive a Sizzix Big Shot Machine or $100 in Stampin' Up! products of their choice from any of our current catalogs.
•New recruits who use the online IDA will be given access to the Promotional Product Bonus order type in OEX approximately one hour after they complete their online IDA (they will be provided a link to OEX for this redemption via e-mail). In this order type, they will either enter the item number for the Big Shot (item 113439) or the item numbers for up to $100 in Stampin' Up! products. Products can be chosen from any current catalog and shipping is free!
•New Recruits should ensure that their free total comes as close as possible to $100 without going over since the Promotional Product Bonus order type will not allow items beyond $100 to be added to the order.
•Those who mail in their IDAs can simply list the items they want for free on their accompanying order form.
•New recruits will have until November 30, 2011, to redeem their product bonus.
Starter Kit

•New recruits may purchase the standard or Digital+ Starter Kit, and may add the Stampin' Memories, Definitely Decorative, or My Digital Studio Software Add-On for the regular add-on price.
•New recruits may substitute a Textured Impressions Embossing Folder ($7.95 or less; see pages 218-219) for the Always Bird Décor Elements (p. 233) that comes standard in the Starter Kit.
•New recruits who join Stampin' Up! during this promotion are still eligible for any programs available to a new recruit, including but not limited to the Extra 10% Instant Income offer, Stampin' Start, and the opportunity to purchase a Business Booster Kit.
