New online class - Peaceful Place - Festive Home Decor & Cards

Are your customers ready for something different this festive season? I know mine were and they loved this fun class creating some Christmas home decor trees as well as some pretty cards. 

It made for a relaxing class with pretty easy prep - and my 'at home' ladies enjoyed it too.

PEACEFUL PLACE - FESTIVE HOME DECOR & CARDS

To give you an idea of scale the tall tree is about 12" and they work from any angle so could be a holiday table centre if you wish. 

You could also choose to change up the colours and go with some traditional Christmas DSP - and you can use whatever glimmer, foil and bling you prefer. 


Included in the class are:

• Measurements in inches worked out for A4 and US letter sizes
• A printable template for the 'snow' layer for display
• An ordering list per person
• Class pricing ideas
• Non-logo advertising photo 
• Reference photos for each project
• An introduction video with teaching tips 
• Step by step videos for each project

I have kept my class price to just £10, which is about $14 US depending on today's Paypal exchange rates.

If you would like to order the class securely on Paypal, click the button below. If you'd like to see more, scroll down and I will show you the projects on a short video.

 I hope this class will help some of you save time and effort in working out a wow project to teach and that it helps with your sales too.

SELLING AT CLASSES

Hello and welcome to Ready, Set, Demo

 

I hear from some demonstrators that they struggle to sell in a class setting, (as opposed to a party where everyone expects to buy). One thing I do is to put out a small display of samples to show other ways of using the products we were using. 

By showing the versatility of the goodies and also sharing some Sale-A-Bration items too - you can easily talk about the bundle to tempt your lovely customers.  For example in class we made these two cards using the Nature's Harvest bundle ...

 

...and then I showed these 6 sample cards showing a range of techniques and other products including the Be Dazzling Sale-A-Bration paper. It helped customers decide if this was the bundle for them. (hint: it was!) 

 

 

Another way to share the bundles is to make a sampler.  On an upcoming class we are going to make this fun Penguin Place project.

 

Now while there are great samples in the catalogue - sometimes it is good to show how the stamps, punch and in this case DSP can work together - so I made this to show some different ways to put the penguins together...

Make sure you have order forms on hand and tell everyone when you are putting in your next order and who wouldn't be tempted by some cute penguins? 

I will be back very soon with a new Ready To Teach class - I am filming for it this week. 

Enjoy sharing and teaching - however you are doing that right now - and take care everyone

Fresh Ways to Share - Stampin' Up! DSP Sale

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

The DSP sale is a great offer from Stampin' Up! I thought I would do a quick video showing one way to demonstrate how to use our beautiful papers. 

One thing I have done recently is to take a fresh look at how I share DSP. I was thinking about my ladies who have a huge stack that they haven't yet used - so why do they need more, (hint: they do :)), and also for new  crafters to show them ways to get a die cut look with a Stamp & Emboss machine. 

 

I have done a short video showing how I featured two of the current sale DSP's in this way and hope you will find it helpful. It certainly generated some good sales and great comments from my lovely customers. These ideas can be shared online on a live, with pictures in a newsletter or in person if you are able to gather together. 

CLICK TO WATCH THE VIDEO HERE 

Have you done your pre-order for the new mini catalogue and second Sale-A-Bration? So many lovely things in there. 

I will be working on some more classes for you to teach with mini catalogue goodies - but in the meantime, there are plenty of classes still available if you need a class in a hurry.

Layering Diorama Masterclass

Are you loving the new catalogue? One thing that caught my eye at once was the Layering Diorama die set on page 163. I could see at once that there were so many different ways to use this set so I couldn't wait to get my hands on them to design a class. 

Layering Diorama Masterclass

In my last class, Welcoming Windows, you let me know you loved the way the projects went from simple to more involved. You told me it meant customers ended up very confident in using their new Stampin' Up! goodies. 

I have repeated this idea with the Layering Diorama class, starting with lots of hints and tips, looking at lots of different ways to layer, different options for folds and more and including 7 card instructions for you and your customers to create. 

This is definitely a class where you or your customers can use ANY stamps in your collections along with the Layering Diorama dies. Although I show the class projects step by step as shown - just change out the stamps to make it work for you! And of course it means it can easily be taught by zoom or video or via a private facebook group as well as in person. 

My classes are designed as time savers for you as a busy demo. You can use just one project to introduce the dies at a class or party or event - or run the whole class including dies in the price to increase your sales.

Launch Week Chat - and Quiet Meadow Project Ideas

Hello my Ready Set Demo friends 

I have been super busy running a launch week and getting my lovely ladies excited about the fabulous new goodies in the Stampin' Up! catalogue. 

I thought I would share a quick video showing how I share a bundle or suite and of course share some project ideas with you.  The video features one of my favourite bundles, Quiet Meadow.  (You will need to excuse over a year of lockdown hair - I see my hairdresser on 10th May!) 

Here are some of the projects I show in the video - I think this will be super popular with all our customers. 

You can also find my video from last year showing how to launch when you can't gather HERE. 

I hope you have a fantastic catalogue launch

Free Craft Along Project for You

Hello and welcome to Ready, Set, Demo 

I have recently added some craft-along sessions to keep my lovely customers entertained during our ongoing lockdown here in the UK.

This project was SO popular - my ladies made loads of photo frames and home decor pieces - with Easter themes, Birthday themes, Miss You themes and more. They can be posted too - so great for gifting. 

I thought I would film the tutorial especially for you.

Of course I also created a non-logo printable which you will find on your recent newsletter to download. 

If you would like it and are not on my newsletter list - just let me know and I will add you and pop it over. I usually send newsletters once or twice a month and you can unsubscribe at any time - but why would you :) ?
