Incentive Trip Goal Update – Almost There!

September 21, 2021February 21, 2022Leave a comment

Hello Stampers! It has always been a goal for me to earn the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip. A few weeks back, I shared that the goal was somewhere out there, on the distant horizon. I could see it when I squinted my eyes. As these weeks passed since that update, I have been inching closer to the horizon through your sales purchases. THANK YOU ALL for those purchases! Today is the day I will be getting thank you gifts prepared: pdf tutorial emails sent and cards ready for snail mail posting for those that have purchased so far in September. You are welcome to continue to place orders as every order helps! Click here to shop using a current host. Remove the code from the online store if your order is over $150 so you can redeem all the host rewards yourself. Make sure to have your Sale-a-bration rewards picked out, every $50 increment in orders receive exclusive Sale-a-bration items! AND if your order is over $300, you receive the In Your Words stamp set for free from Stampin’ Up! All dollar values are excluding shipping and tax.

There is another way for me to earn the trip and that is to build my team by adding new demonstrators that sign up with me as their team leader. You might be surprised at what you receive as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator from the company and from me to help you support whatever your stamping dream may be. Just ask if I can help you with your dream whether it’s being able to get a few more items because the demo discount helps you do that, receiving exclusive pdf tutorials from me or opening your snail mail box with a surprise from me. You may also have other stamping dreams. Let’s dream together!

RIGHT NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO CONSIDER JOINING MY TEAM BECAUSE STAMPIN’ UP! WILL INCLUDE A FREE BUNDLE OF YOUR CHOICE FROM THE OPTIONS LISTED IN THE GRAPHIC BELOW. Click here or the graphic below to zoom to the online sign up process. Please make sure my name is listed at some point in the process so you know you are signing up with me. Signing up to enjoy the demo discount is the #1 reason that stampers join my team.

So the deadline of September 30th, 2021 to earn the trip draws near. If you are able to help me reach this 18 years in the making goal by placing an order or joining my team, I would appreciate!

Thanks so much!

Super Awesome Shirley

Less than 1% of all demonstrators earn the incentive trip each year.

Your online party can be run a few different ways: make your own product purchases to the $300 level or invite a few of your stamping friends to order using your host code. Whichever way you opt for, I’ll send thank you’s to everyone that orders. Want to host a zoom make along party with your friends? We can do that too!

P.S. Did you know that Stampin’ Up! offers incentive trips that demonstrators can earn? Well, I always seem to be in the running to earn one, but then summer hits and sales drop. Thanks to you, I was able to keep the momentum going through summer. BUT I really need your help if I am going to reach my goal of earning a trip for the first time. Any product purchases you can make sooner in Sale-a-bration rather than later will help me to plan if I need to hustle to reach my goal of earning the trip. If you are considering joining my Super Awesome Stampers Team during Sale-a-bration, do that today! Team Building also helps me to earn the trip! Please contact me if you have any questions about placing orders or joining my team. Thanks for your support!
