BIZ TIP: Give free or low-cost trials to get more people to try your product. Even if your subscription offer can be cancelled at any time, people are often weary of getting hooked into a subscription of something they’re unsure of. You can offer a free or a very low-cost trial to try it out.

BIZ TIP: Develop a marketing plan.It doesn’t have to be a long thought out process. Something quick and simple will do. You just need to have some idea of what your plans are when it comes to marketing your business. My plan is a drawing on a piece of paper posted on a bulletin board next to my desk.

The Strength & Hope Campaign, benefiting The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® (BCRF), came to an end on August 31. Stampin’ Up! and I want to thank you for your amazing support of this global philanthropic campaign. We raised nearly $60,000, which will go toward helping BCRF “achieve prevention and a cure for breast cancer in our lifetime” (BCRF Mission Statement).   WOO HOO!

So, now you are wondering, “What is the Scrapbook Club?” We geared this offering to help the new scrapbooker because that is where you can really shine. There are plenty of crafty people out there that want to scrapbook, but don’t know where to start. You can help them. There are also a whole lot of cardmakers that just haven’t had the opportunity to fall in love with scrapbooking because of pre-conceived notions. That’s okay, too, because you are going to learn the secret that will blast those notions out of the water! With the Scrapbook Club you will be set up for a 3 month scrapbook club, one stamp camp, or individual classes, you choose what works best for your business!
