I talked to my SU demonstrator last night (my party is on Friday) and she said that they don't usually offer to use your earnings towards a demo package but she will take my earnings and pay what ever it is worth towards my demo package. Plus...she is going to pay an extra $25 of it to get me started. With the demo pack. on sale for $159.99 - $25 including a free stamp set I just can't pass it up. Even if I flop....I am not really gonna be out anything. I think I am gonna try it out.

DH doesn't want me too because I tried the Discovery Toys thing and didn't do much at all becasue I am not a pusher. But if I hold a monthly crop or whatever. I thought about doing cricut classes too so if I tied it in to that I could sell paper for the cricut and make it on that.

Isn't it crazy that so many of us are thinking about doing this? I have been thinking about it for awhile, but with everyone else talking about doing it and making is sound pretty easy to make your monthly quotas....I think I will give it a shot!

That is what I was going to say...with everyone talking about it, I am thinking about it too!!

Good luck!

I have done these direct sales before too, and I am not a "pusher".....but this does seem interesting!

Good luck Sara! I actually thought about it too! I don't think DH would be too happy either since my Mary Kay venture was a flop since I'm not a "pusher" either!

Man, I did Usborne Books at Home, Tupperware, Discovery Toys, Avon. I suck at pushing but I think I'd do really well in this area. And, like you said, you're not really going to be out anything. Also, you're lucky to have someone nearby to help you

I contacted ember about it a couple weeks ago too. I think it looks cool. I was looking for scrapbooking card making classes and stuff in my area and came across someones page for Stampin up and then I remembered Ember does it and I contacted her. I am gonna do it when I figure out some stuff. Mainly where I am gonna live but I think that is pretty much decided for now. So I am gonna try and do stampin up and babysit and of course the normal mommy stuff. I hope thats not too much on my plate.
