HI!!!


I LOOOOVEEE Scrapbooking and making cards. Close To My Heart has been the best scrapbooking and card making/stamping company that I have seen. I didn't even like to stamp that much, but when I saw how much fun it was with this company- I was an instant addict! smileys/smiley36.gif


To tell you the truth, I am not much for being spontaneous, but I knew from just looking at the catalog for the first time, I wanted to become a consultant.(I mainly am my own customer-hehehe!, but would be happy to show others their great products) Its first class quality and selection at a real reasonable price. I used to use the CM line, but was blown away when I saw this line. smileys/smiley20.gif

I followed your signature and it leads to a different website. Do you have
anything set up for Close to my Heart? I know the catalog is going online
later this month.

HI Hilary!


I don't have a website yet for my CTMH. I didn't know if it was worth it cost wise since you can't order or see the products yet online. But I would be happy to send you an idea book, which is also our catalog. I think its 3 dollars.(there is a cost because its not small and it gives lots of ideas for scraping and stamping)


PM me if your interested or have more questions and we can talk directly.smileys/smiley1.gif


Thanks!


Wendy

Thanks for getting back to me so soon, Wendy. I think I'll wait to take a
look at the online catalog first.

My sister used to sell CTMH, but she doesn't anymore. I miss
knowing someone who sells it. We went a party the other day and I
love the new products. I spent a lot at the party. LOL



I am interested in finding out information about becoming a consultant.
What is the cost to begin? What profit do you make? What
are the sales quotas that are required? Please let me know
anything else you think I should know before deciding if becoming a
consultant is for me. Thanks!

HI Andrea!


Here is the answer to your question. PM me if you have more questions and I would be happy to help you out!


What is the cost to begin? The New Consultant Kit costs $150.00 (almost 60% off the retail price of the products included!)
What profit do you make? You will receive a 22% base commission on all sales (collected at the time of the sale). You will also receive override commissions on your sales - the more you sell, the more your commission amount increases. If you recruit downline, you will also receive commissions on their sales (the higher level you acheive, the higher your downline commissions are).
What are the sales quotas that are required? $300.00 in sales per calendar quarter (its about a 4 month period) to remain an "active" consultant
Please let me know anything else you think I should know before deciding if becoming a consultant is for me. are there discounts for stuff you buy yourself? or do you hit a certain sales quota then get a certain discount? You can receive a 22% discount any time and also receive sales commissions at the same time - these sales will also count toward your quarterly minimums. You may also choose to use your 30% discount - up to $100 a month after the discount - but you will not receive commissions on these sales and they will not count toward your quarter minimum.
what are the hidden costs? like, how much do the catalogs cost I believe they are 1.75/ea. + tax and shipping for consultants - retail 3.95/ea. + tax and shipping.What type of things do I "have to" buy to start doing parties? You will receive some stamp sets and inks in your kit, but you will need to order a double scrubber to clean your stamps. With that, you will also need to order paper and more inks to compliment what is already in your kit so that you can get right to work.Thanks!



Thank you!


Wendy
