New Year .... New Commitments!

This year I am going to make a commitment to post a new piece I have completed, or a new idea or something about scrapping every two weeks!!!  So… beginning today  - I know I am a bit late for the technical “New Year” but, it’s the beginning of a new day for me!!  I am starting with this post about my "new" club and maybe a picture of a new card I am making today.....
Along with this I am announcing a NEW CLUB!  This is not a "Close to My Heart" club - it is one that I am running for my Close to My Heart business.  Here are the details I sent out to friends and family!

CLOSE TO MY HEART

“SIMPLY REWARDS” CLUB

this club is specific to Kathy Lickenbrock ... it's not a CTMH program

       … I was thinking and I decided that this year I was going to do something new with my Close to My Heart business…. Until now I have been not doing a whole lot – okay, well nothing really and so I thought this year I am going to do something for those of you who have ordered from me in the past and for those of you who are “new” customers… Close to My Heart offers a great incentive program to be a hostess and I thought …. Hey!  Why not offer this to your customers on an individual basis…. So, I am beginning my own “Simply Rewards” Club (okay, so I stole this idea from another consultant – but, I thought this is a GREAT idea!! I think I will try it!!!)  So, if you commit to purchasing $150. this year (you have to let me know in advance – and I will keep track of your purchases - not including shipping and handling costs.)  

New Club Greater Flexibility More Options More Rewards You’re in Control  

CLUB ONLY SPECIALS FOR FEBRUARY
Place an Idea Book order of $50+ in February and get the February  Stamp Of The Month for $5 (no added shipping or tax) and a second TOTALLY FREE stamp set !!  Unfortunately, you will not get to choose the one you get but, hey, surprises can be fun!!!! 
ONGOING CLUB ONLY SPECIALS

FREE mini stamp with every order. Every time you place a $50. order you will get a FREE mini stamp from me! 

Place an order every month of your membership no matter what size and at the end of the year I will boost you to the next rewards level.

Remember there are rewards at every $50 beginning at $100.
 

Have a Close To My Heart party and I will add the Idea Book sales from the Simply Rewards Club to your hostess total.

The first club member each month to schedule a party will get this incentive.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I SPEND MORE THAN $150?

There are reward levels beyond $150 at every $50.

PURCHASES … HOW MUCH & HOW OFTEN?

The only requirement is $150 in purchases in one year. You may choose to order all of it at once OR budget your purchases at regular intervals.

ARE THERE OTHER PERKS?

Yes - two free Idea Books (one in February and one in September – these can be mailed to you if you include your address with the note when you join), $2 Tombow refills (these must be ordered directly from me!  This is the only way I can control this price!!)  and preferred customer service.

WHICH PURCHASES EARN REWARDS? Order on-line through my website or contact me directly to order from the current Idea Book. All Studio J orders also qualify.

CAN MY FRIENDS ORDER UNDER MY NAME? Sure, but you will be in charge of ordering, receiving and delivering your friend’s order since it will be placed under your name to get credit.

WHAT IF MY FRIEND WANTS TO SIGN UP?

For every friend that signs up under your recommendation I’ll add $15 to your balance. Sign up 5 friends … get to $75 closer to the next reward level.
