Join us for our Friday Night Crop - Friday February 14th - Our Hostess Janet L.

Cannot make this month's Crop?  Not to worry!! 

Club Members and friends of the hostess can still place their order either Online using this month's CLUB HOSTESS CODE TVVFKMQF  so that our hostess gets credit for your purchases. 

Please ensure that your order is placed on Crop day or before, to allow our hostess plenty of time to pick out her goodies.  ~ Thanks in advance!  

Choose Scrapbook – or Rubber Stamper (Card Making) 

This club is near and dear to my heart, as it was formed at the request of some of my dear Scrapbooking Ladies who have been with me since I first made the switch from being a hobby demo to teaching classes.   

The Midnight Crop runs in conjunction with this club – the club portion lies in the 6 month commitment that entitled you to the extra perks of CLUB. 

This club is unique in that not only do you get all of the benefits of the Midnight Crop, and having 6 hours to catch up on your unfinished projects, or work on a project you have on the go, but you also get the perks and bonuses of being a CLUB member as well.  These may include (but are not limited to)  discounts on classes,  and crops outside of club, sneak peeks, advanced notification of sales and promotions offered as well as other perks and treats. 

You do not have to join club in order to attend this Midnight Crop - in fact, "Guests" are welcome!  Pay a $25 class fee, or place an order of $35 or more, and your Crop is FREE.  Space is limited however, so RSVP is required. 

To facilitate the productivity of my Scrappin’ Girls who don’t want to be interrupted, but would still like to play with new projects and ideas; your projects will be packed into a convenient package that you can either put together during the Crop, or take away to complete later.   

This package will also include a document that you can put away with your crafting supplies that will remind you of the products and tools that you used to make this card when you come back to recreate it later. 

Class Schedule 2^nd Friday night of each month:  6PM – 12PM

Dates for this Friday Night Crop Club:

Feb 14  -  Hostess: Janet

March 14 - Hostess: Jennifer
April 11 - Hostess: Could it be YOU?
May 9 - Hostess: Could it be YOU?
June 13  - Hostess: Could it be YOU?

What is Club? * The Fine Print*

Join for 6 months,  purchase $35 each month and during one of those months you will get all of the hostess perks and benefits plus many other specials from Tammy Wilson.

Club will meet on the 2^nd Friday of each month from September to February 2014.  The class will be held from 6PM – 12PM  in my Cardinal Craft Room. 

Check my calendar for other "Club" dates,  or contact me to choose a date that works better for you! 

Please indicate if you consider yourself more of a Scrapbooker, or Rubber Stamper when you sign up.  Additional “kits” will be available for those who would like to have the best of both worlds.  Please bring your own adhesive or plan to buy some at the start of class. 

Want the perks of being in a club but can’t afford the time to stay and play?  Sign up for my To-Go Option!  You’ll still get all of the perks and benefits,  and I’ll pack your projects to go so that you can do them at home at your leisure.  If you prefer, we can also assemble your projects for you!  

Need to miss Club night – No problem – Just make sure your order is In before Club night (you can also use the Monthly Hostess code if you prefer) .  Complete your projects at home,  or plan to come out to one of my Open Classes or Crops to work on your “UFO’s” (Unfinished Objects). 

Club members receive a discount on all of my classes, and crops outside of their own Club.  First notification of upcoming promotions and sales,  and additional Club-Only perks throughout the course of their membership.  You will also receive copies of all of our current catalogs and idea books for the duration of your membership FREE!

Maximize your hostess perks and FREE PRODUCT by sharing our convenient monthly hostess code for YOUR Hostess date with your friends and family across Canada. 

During Sale-a-Bration - get a Sale-a-Bration Promotional item FREE for every 60.00 you spend.  It's our most wonderful time of the year! 

Orders can be shipped anywhere in Canada for no additional charge.  Ask me about an Online Class or Online Catalog party for you and your friends and family near and far.

Notice: We Are No Longer Associated with "Group Ordering One Company A Month" on Facebook!

It is with a heavy heart that I need to announce to my customers, that I am no longer affiliated or associated in any way with the Facebook Small Business Networking Group:  "Group Ordering One Company a Month". 

The premise of the group is that each member of the group would order $30 a month from the demonstrator of the month.  Each demonstrator would then have a turn to be the featured demo of the month.  Unlike other groups I am in, and have been in, this group left the demonstrator of choice as the hostess. 

I joined with both of the companies that I represent, which meant that I would spend $60 each month.  Pretty straight forward.  

The first month I was in, I placed an order with the hostess and waited weeks for a total, finally got the total and asked about sending an EFT.  I never heard from her again.  Next thing I knew she wasn't in the group any longer. 

The next month was better, I placed my order, and the items arrived as expected, but then came December..  it was a grab-style month where every demo got an order from someone.  One order came in for the one company, the other I never heard from.  When I asked the moderators what happened I was told that she'd left the group.  I'd placed an order and was awaiting a finally tally so that didn't happen either.  The moderators were not only not interested in doing anything about it, the one moderator actually berated me for daring to say anything about it.  I was gobsmacked. 

I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt, though I watched several demos leave, and heard from a number of ladies how unimpressed they were with the group and how it was being run.  I figured my month was coming so I'd try to give it a little more time. 

Just a few days ago I was told that February one of my companies would be up - would I post my information.  So I did.  Yesterday I logged in to add something to it as our annual sale is upon us, and noticed that there was yet another posting about changing things up.   Our group and another were gone and were being arranged again.   When I couldn't find my name anywhere I asked the moderator.  

I was told that she had to make changes for the betterment of the group, and instead of addressing my questions and concerns with some diplomacy and caring,  I was once again berated for daring to question what she was doing with her group.  I explained that while I didn't envy her having to move things around yet again,  that she needed to understand also that this is our businesses that are being shuffled around and that this latest move had now cost me $300 in sales for February.  Surely she could understand that.  

I'd excused myself and said that I had an early morning and would be heading to bed.  Hoping that by morning she'd have a chance to consider what I'd said and it could be revisited.  

She never responded but this morning I found that the group was no longer listed,  and the moderator was now marked as Facebook User which would normally indicate that they were no longer on my friend list.  I messaged in the thread where she had added her co-mod (daughter) and I,  and it indicated the message had been seen but noone responded. 

The long and short of it is that by all accounts this group is an absolute nightmare.  The moderators involved truly have no concept of how to run a group, or how to communicate with the members that have joined.  There is NO networking, and absolutely NO concept of working together among the group.  Many of the demonstrators didn't post their information, and were missing out on the potential of a group such as this because they weren't checking posts or answering questions from potential clients.  With the lack of an administrator at the helm to direct traffic, the group becomes a mess --  with the constant unscheduled changes - -  the group, a complete train wreck. 

Like many that joined the group hoping swap sales with other demonstrators, and like many before me.  I'm now in a position of walking away empty handed and frustrated.  There was truly no need for all of the drama and garbage from someone that's supposed to be in charge.  Such a waste. 

If you are a member of this group and would still like to place your order with me, please let me know.  If I haven't already placed an order with you, I would be happy to reciprocate to fulfill at least that much.  Let me know..
