Talking What to order??

Hi, Everyone!
I am a brand new SU Demo! Yahoo! I am doing my first order today and wondering what stamp sets are the best to demo. And maybe the colors that look great with it. Anything else...
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

You might want to ask this over on the demo forums for more exposure as well! I'd guess you'll get a lot more answers. I don't have much advise as I'm mainly a hobby demo and just buy what I like (which is a lot, haha). Have fun and good luck!!!!

I'm a new demo too and I'm pretty much a hobby demo, but I may start a club at some point. Just order what you love because the projects that you make with your customers will reflect your style.

Welcome to the SU! family!! Definitely pick sets that you like and colors that you like. If you pick stuff you like you'll make great samples!! And sign up for the demo only side of SCS. There's a lot of great info over there!

Like Minders said, jump on over to the Demo side and you'll get your questions answered.

Smile Thanks!

Thanks, Everyone! I didn't know there was a SU Demo side...so I've requested to join now. Thanks for the info!

I was mainly wondering if there were any sets that people knew were very popular in sales at workshops.

I know what I like...I've picked out one set and have asked two of my friends, both wrinkled their noses at me. :rolleyes: Guess we have different tastes. That's okay, though...SU appeals to everyone's tastes with such a great variety!!

Thanks again! I'm anxiously awaiting being accepted on the Demo side.

Have a blessed day!
Annette

I've wrinkled my nose at a few sets and then saw them made up and they went to the top of my list. Sometimes it's hard for people to see how great a set is until they see the finished product.

I used to buy stamps that I "thought" the customers would like even though I didn't like them only to find the customers didn't buy them either. Also, I found it's really hard to make cards/projects with stamps I didn't like. Now, I buy what I like and it's the cards/projects that sell the customers on the sets I demo. The plus side is that if the customers don't buy the set I still have a set I'll use instead sets I'll never use again.

The most sold for me are: Just Belive, Simply Said, Vintage Vogue, Flight of the Butterfly, Growing Green, and Pocket Silhouettes.

Welcome to SU and you're gonna love the demo side.

Smile Thanks again

Hi,

Thanks so much for your imput! Funny...Vintage Vogue is the set I love that I showed to my two friends. :rolleyes: So glad you are having success with it! I'm gonna get it! And I love Just Believe, also! Just sold that set to someone this week. Think I'll get it too, now that you've said it's a good one.

Oh..I can't wait for the Demo side! Still waiting...haven't heard anything back yet from the Moderators.

Thanks so much again!!! You all are wonderful!
Annette
