CTMH - Some questions I've received on becoming a consultant with the 1/2 price kit

The other day, someone asked me what happens if they decide being a consultant isn't for them.  
If you join and decide it's not for you - no problem!  You can either resign (terminate your status) or you can just let it run it's natural course.  What I mean - if you sign in May, then decide it's not for you in June, you have a few options.  You can send a letter of resignation to the corporate office, effectively terminating immediately.  Or you can just not meet your minimums in 3rd quarter, dropping to Junior, then not meet your minimums in 4th quarter which would mean that you would exit in January 2012.  You are not obligated in any way once you get your kit!

I also received the a question as to what type of upline support I offer (from someone not local to me): 
I have a team website to share my templates of classes that I have put together as well as share tips and ideas. I am available by phone, cell phone, and email to help you in any way that you need.  I will work with you based on your wants and needs.  If you want to talk weekly, we can set up a time to do that.  If you're more the type that likes to dig in without someone nearby, then I can be that type of upline as well.  I think that each person has a different need from an upline - I'm available to work with you to meet your needs!

If you have any questions at all, please email me; I'm happy to answer any and all questions!

CTMH - Pennsylvania Leadershare

This past weekend, I attended Close to My Heart's Leadershare program in King of Prussia.  It was an awesome, incredible, fun, wonderful (dare I add FABULOUS) day filled with training - both business and creative.  It was hosted by Kathy Markloff - a Senior Executive Director who will be celebrating 20 years with Close to My Heart this year (Congratulations Kathy!).  Kristine and Brian - both corporate VP's shared business training  on maintaining a optimistic outlook and Studio J (respectively) along with Naomi Smith's fabulous time management training. We also did two create and takes - a photo cube and a two page layout (artwork to follow soon, I promise!).  

I also had a chance to spend some time with 4 of the other Scrapbook Spa Getaway alumni.  It was wonderful to see Krista, Jaime, Kristina and Shannon again, and to see how they are thriving in their respective businesses.

All of this cost just $35.  Can you believe it?  A day jam packed with training and creative time for just $35.  And did I mention that we also received a C sized stamp set, a D sized stamp and all of the supplies to make the Create and Takes - which alone were worth more than the registration fee?   

I love Close to My Heart.  The corporate offices provide such fabulous support to their consultants! Yes, I know it's in the company's best interests that we succeed as consultants.  The level of support and commitment to training are incredible! 

If you've ever considered joining Close to My Heart, May is the perfect time to do just that.  You can purchase your starter kit for just $64.50 with 3 creative options that you want - 1/2 off the normal price of $129.  Want more information?  Check out this page! I would love to have you join my team with this incredible company!

CTMH - So let's crunch some numbers on the 1/2 price consultant kit...

Okay, I admit it.  I'm an accountant by trade, so crunching numbers is second nature to me.  Last night, I was thinking what a fabulous value the starter kit was to begin with, but WOW - at half price?  Now, it's an incredible, don't pass this up value!

So, here's how it breaks down as far as retail value/cost:

The business essentials (business supplies such as forms, etc) - $24.75. Everyone gets this with their starter kit regardless of the "Choose Me" options selected.

• Choose Me Option 2 - $99.00
• Choose Me Option 3 - $66.85
• Choose Me Option 4 - $78.55
• Choose Me Option 5 - $73.60
• Choose Me Option 6 - $75.05

Now, if you take the three highest price items (Choose Me Options 2, 4 and 6) plus the business essentials, the value is $277.35.  At $64.50, that's 76% off of the retail value of those items.  Think about it - you're getting your new consultant kit for just 24% of the retail cost of the items!  Where else can you find such hiqh quality products at a phenomenal price?


Even if you take the lowest price three items (Choose Me Options 3, 5 and 6) plus the business essentials, the value is $240.25.  At a cost of $64.50, that's 73% off of the retail value of those items!  You're paying just 27% of the cost with your new kit!

Really though, it's an even BETTER value than that!  You can get your "You and Me" kit for FREE when you sign up as a new consultant in May. The retail value of that kit (if purchased) is $34.95.  So, the value in the first scenario would be $312.30 while the value in the second scenario would be $275.20.  In the former scenario, it's now 79% discount off of the retail value while the latter scenario now is a 77% discount.  That's absolutely INCREDIBLE!


The cost of a MyCTMH website is discounted for new consultants during their first 12 months as a consultant.  It's 54% off during your first year to help you get established with your own e-commerce website.


So who should take advantage of this deal?  Everyone!!!  Seriously, whether you sign up to start a business or simply to get your own supplies at a discount, everyone should sign up.   Your  first quarter as a new consultant (when minimum sales become a factor) is July 31, 2011 - September 30, 2011.   That means you will enjoy a 22% discount (plus potential overrides) from now through September 30th! I'll support you whether this is a business or hobby for you.  There's room on my team for everyone. Want more information on why I joined plus some of the perks and reasons to join?  Check out this page - The Sandcastle Stampers. Want to see what's in the kit options?  Then check this page - Join my team during May 2011.  Ready to sign up?  Then head over to my website!  I'd love to have you join my team.

CTMH - Wow! What a great deal!

I love being an independent consultant with Close to My Heart.  I've made so many friendships that I truly cherish and met some of the most fantastic women!  And becoming a consultant is so easy, and affordable - a great way to start your own business with little risk!

During May though, it's even MORE affordable.  You can get the new consultant starter kit for just $64.50 (plus shipping and tax).  That's HALF OFF the regular price! You decide what options are included in your kit beyond the business basics. But wait - it gets better!  You also get the "You and Me" scrapbook kit for FREE!  

Want to see the kit options?  You can check this page - Join the Sandcastle Stampers in May 2011. I would love to have you join my team!  I'm here to help you start your business (or support your hobby).  My business is to help you grow your business

It's free products and a free kit—a fabulous deal!

What is Straight to the Top?  It's Close to My Heart's program for jump-starting your business! It is a program that Close to My Heart created because they noted that early success means continued success.  In the first month, sell $300 of Close to My Heart product and earn a $25 select product credit.  In your first 3 months, sell a total of $1200 (an additional $900), receive an additional $75 select product credit. And, if you sign in the month of February, and meet the Straight to the Top goals, you'll also receive a rebate on your kit!  So what do you get with the basic kit?  You select three for your basic kit:

Choose me 2 - One year Studio J membership (value $99.00)

Choose me 3 - Workshop on the Go (Mayberry) plus acrylic block (2"x3.5"), embellishments, inks and stamps (Value $66.85)

You can also add on any or all of the additional choose me kits for $40 each when you purchase the basic kit. Those purchases won't be reimbursed under the February promotion, but it's still a fabulous deal! 

You aren't expected to have inventory.  Many consultants only do workshops and parties.  I also am a vendor at crops and expos, so that's my decision to hold inventory - but it is not expected nor even encouraged.

As for me - I'm here for you as you launch your business and will help you in any way that I can going forward.  I'll take my cue from you; if you want me to be in touch often, I'll do that!  If you want me to put no pressure on you; I can do that too.  And I'm always available to help you whenever you need it.

As for me - I'm here for you as you launch your business and will help you in any way that I can going forward.  I'll take my cue from you; if you want me to be in touch often, I'll do that!  If you want me to put no pressure on you; I can do that too.  And I'm always available to help you whenever you need it.
 

Being a Close to My Heart independent consultant is a fun business - and a great way to meet new people while you get a discount on your own papercrafting products.

I would love to have you join my team!  Please contact me if you'd like more information or have any questions!

January is a great month to become a consultant!

2010 would be a great time to become a consultant!

Have you ever thought about becoming a consultant?  For me, it's a great way to meet other people that share my love for scrapping and stamping.  Of course, extra income never hurt anyone!

In all seriousness, though, I do love what I do!  And you can too.  Close to my Heart has reasonable minimums- at $300 per quarter, with a great commission/discount rate (starting at 22% ranging up to 34%). You can run it as a business, or as a hobbyist, getting a discount on your supplies. 

If you'd like more information, call or email me to call you!  I'd love to have you join my team!  You can sign up here
