Stampin’ Up! Is a privately owned, direct sales company who designs and manufactures rubber stamps and paper crafting products. With a headquarters in Riverton, Utah, the company was founded by two sisters in 1988 and is currently run by Sara Douglass, the daughter of co-founder Shelli Gardner.
Stampin’ Up! products can’t be found in stores but are instead sold through a vast network of independent demonstrators around the world.
What's the difference between a Hobbyist vs. a Business Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator ?
Unlike company employees, we are considered independent sales consultant / demonstrators and act as an independent contractor. We have the freedom to represent and sell Stampin’ Up! products as much or as little as we want (as long as we meet the quarterly requirement of buying or selling a $300 minimum. Working Part time or full time is our own choice.
Stampin' Up! Demonstrators are usually one of two types: being either a hobbyists or business builder.
A hobbyist is a demonstrator who buys the starter kit because they love stamping, making cards, paper crafting, scrapbooking and memory keeping. They typically purchase their own supplies and get their discount. That's it... No more, other than their own savings on their hobby supply. However, hobbyists do like to get others involved so they can make a little cash and can get some of their products for free.
A "Business Builder" is Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, like myself, who tries to sell products and build their team by recruiting others to become demonstrators on their team. We may work several hours a week, or even full time, to teach card making classes, host workshops and network to find new customers and recruits. I like to do mine mainly online through teaching on YouTube and Monthly Zoom Online Classes. Some successful demonstrators earn a good living from Stampin’ Up!, and others may make enough to help pay some bills or take their family on vacation – depending on their commitment, hustle, team and sales.
Stampin’ Up! demonstrators can earn different levels of achievement, or titles, based on their success. These levels include:
- Bronze
- Bronze Elite
- Silver
- Silver Elite
- Gold
- Gold Elite
- Platinum
- Platinum Elite
For example, to get from Bronze to Bronze Elite, you must have annual rolling sales of $1,800 (US). To continue promoting up in the company, additional sales targets must be met along with specific recruitment goals to build your team.
As you continue to move up, you can earn product csv credits and bonuses which can be redeemed for a variety of different things such as Annual Incentive Trip (which I have achieved twice since making my decision to be a Business Builder instead of a Hobbyist). In addition, the commission structure and bonuses will increase as you progress through the demonstrator levels.
Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Starter Kit
The Stampin’ Up Demonstrator starter kit is the best deal in the entire catalog. You will be prompted to select up to $125 worth of products from the current catalogs for just $99 (US). You are free to pick out whatever products you want, and will also get free shipping and a business supply kit valued at $50 that includes catalogs and order forms.
Joining during Sale-a-Bration will also get you a FREE 6"x6" pack of every new Designer Series Paper.
