NEW DEMO KIT EXPERIENCE

I have some seriously exciting news to share today, and I couldn’t wait to tell you all about it! Starting July 1, 2026, Stampin’ Up! is rolling out an elevated, brand-new onboarding experience for first-time demonstrators — and at the heart of it is the most delightful little secret: a surprise Welcome Box. 💕

This is a warm, heartfelt “welcome to the family” gesture — a gift that says we’re so glad you’re here the moment you join the global Stampin’ Up! creative community. And because it’s a surprise-and-delight gift, Stampin’ Up! isn’t advertising it far and wide… which means you’re getting the inside scoop right here.

Let’s dive in!

What’s Inside the Welcome Box?

Here’s everything a first-time demonstrator will find waiting for them:

💌 A handwritten welcome letter from Sara

🎀 Stampin’ Up!-branded swag

🖼️ An exclusive card kit to get you creating right away

How the New Join Process Works

Stampin’ Up! didn’t just add a gift — they streamlined the entire join experience to make getting started easier and more exciting than ever. Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Join

New demonstrators simply:

Choose a team leader (I’d be so honored if you chose me! 💕)
Accept the required agreements
Enter a few personal details
Pay $100 USD | $135 CAD
Click submit — and you’re on your way!

💵 What’s included for my $100 USD | $135 CAD?

You’ll receive the Get Started Bundle, which includes:

A coupon code valued at $125 USD | $170 CAD
An 8-pack of catalogs

That’s right — you pay $100 and get $125 in product value to spend however you like, plus catalogs to share. It’s an incredible way to begin!

🎟️ About the Coupon Code

Here’s the beautiful flexibility of your coupon code:

It can be applied to any demonstrator order.
Your order can exceed the coupon code value — go ahead and stock up on your favorites!
Any amount you spend above the coupon value:
- Receives your demonstrator discount
- Counts toward your quarterly sales minimum
- Earns Stampin’ Rewards (if it meets the qualifying purchase amount)
- Counts toward your team leader’s direct-level sales

Step 2: Shop

Once your information is reviewed and approved (which usually happens very quickly!), your Welcome Box ships and you’ll receive an email with:

Your demonstrator ID

A Few Important Things to Know

Because this box is a little bit special, here are the details worth understanding:

The Welcome Box is exclusive to first-time demonstrators. Anyone joining for the very first time on or after July 1, 2026 will receive one.
Current demonstrators, you have a one-time opportunity to order a Welcome Box after it launches — so keep an eye out for those details!
Rejoining demonstrators will receive all the other joining perks (including the coupon code), but not a Welcome Box.
New demonstrators may add eight free catalogs to any order — perfect for sharing with friends, family, and future customers. The more you share, the more your creative community grows!

A Couple of Policy Updates

Stampin’ Up! also refreshed a few rejoin policies to keep things simple and fair:

Demonstrators who drop must wait 45 days to rejoin.
After the 45-day waiting period, demonstrators can rejoin under any team leader.

Why the change? The 45-day window is short enough to support anyone who needs to step away temporarily due to life circumstances, but long enough to discourage dropping and rejoining just to grab a join promotion. Previously, rejoining under a different team leader required a 90-day wait — so aligning both rejoin periods to 45 days just keeps everything clean and consistent. Simple is good! ✅
