Should I Be A Stampin' Up! Demonstrator?
Your Questions Answered
I’m often asked if it’s “better” to be a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator or to remain a customer.
If you’re like me, a visual chart helps make sense of the pros and cons. You can then more clearly decide which path is best for you at this time.
Please note, this chart is specific to what I offer my direct team (those who choose me as their team leader), so the offerings may be different with another team or team leader.

FrequentlyAsked Questions
You need only submit 300 CSV (approx $450 plus gst retail price NZD) quarter to remain a demonstrator. If you hold just one event a month, you can usually meet your quarterly minimum. However, you can also purchase the minimum amount yourself or with a few friends. You can submit your sales requirements in one order or in smaller orders over the course of the three-month period.
You are welcome on the team no matter how you want to run your demonstrator ship or to what volume. If you choose not to hold events, you can work to generate online orders, orders from family and friends, and order product for yourself.
Yes. You can hold your own workshops and be your own host, collecting host dollars as well as your own discount and any other associated benefits.
You may stop at any time and will not be penalized. You simply stop placing orders. You may rejoin at any time. However, there are many benefits to remaining an active demonstrator.
The kit is $189 and you can choose what comes in it! Choose up to $285 worth of product plus you will receive a business supply pack valued at $90 (catalogues, order forms, etc).
I very much value having team members in class so they can learn how I work and learn stamp techniques. I only ask (insist) that you respect my business and not market yourself as a demonstrator to my clients (do not ask for orders, ask for their contact details for any reason, invite them to your own classes, etc.) I am happy to brainstorm with you ways and places you can ethically find customers instead. However, there are some customer events I run where there simply aren’t enough seats to also accommodate demonstrators. In some instances, I will ask that customers register first, and then demonstrators can fill in remaining seats. In addition, we have many demonstrator-only events. I also run online classes, for which there are unlimited “seats”, so everyone is welcome to register.
No, there is no requirement to build your own team. However, there are many benefits to doing so, such as the close relationships and the support you can give each other. If it’s something you’d like to do, I will give you full support and resources to help you meet your goals.
