Distributor Information & Application
|
Thank you for your interest in
becoming a Distributor for The Blessing Project™.
We’re excited to provide you an opportunity to become
part of this global endeavor, one that will enrich your
life as well as those whose lives you will touch.
Distributors connect our products to our customers
and serve a very vital function in expanding our network.
Distributors are independent marketing/salespersons who
operate their own businesses within the framework of our
basic agreements and guidelines.
We set the ground rules for how things will
happen; i.e. pricing, marketing materials and sales forms
you will use. Within those parameters you are free to decide
how to manage your business depending on your schedule,
contacts, etc. This could include part time involvement
with something as basic as providing your Distributor number
to others who make their orders via our internet web site.
Or perhaps you’d like to make this a full time endeavor
and make presentations to groups, sell at art fairs/holiday
exhibitions and encourage others to become Ambassadors of
The Blessing Project™ by hosting events where the
story is shared and products are available for purchase.
As a Distributor you determine when and where
you conduct your business and are free to determine how
much time you want to devote. Our Distributors come from
all walks and stages of life. You have the opportunity to
create a marketing plan that fits your lifestyle and interests
as well as the flexibility to connect with those groups/sectors/networks
that exist in your life—or to create new paths that
appeal to you. You’ll be able to put your unique skills
and abilities into play as well as have the opportunity
to learn new ones.
Our experience is that once the story is told
the products truly sell themselves. Their uniqueness appeals
to everyone purchasing for their own use at home or work.
They make very delightful gifts for friends and family,
and are used by businesspersons as a special “thank
you” to their customers/clients. Some examples of
customers include:
|
• Boutique gift shops, art galleries
and specialty bookstores
• Spas, resorts and exclusive hotels and Bed &
Breakfast Inns
• Upscale and specialty restaurants
• Retreat, spiritual, educational and holistic wellness
centers
• Hospitals, clinics and hospices
• Upscale caterers and event planners
• Companies that are passionate about employee productivity
and loyalty
• Executive coaches, counselors and retreat facilitators
• Real estate professionals, home stagers and home
blessers
• Medical professionals including veterinarians, physicians
and holistic wellness practitioners
• Funeral, memorial and transition arrangers
• Nonprofit organizations and others wanting to thank
and encourage their volunteers or auction the products
• Individuals buying in bulk for personal use or gifts
• Groups that purchase for fund raising efforts in
their organizations
|
Distributors can
be volunteers (without compensation) or commissioned (with
compensation). Commissioned Distributors earn 20% on direct
sales and 5% referral commission sales to wholesale customers
that purchase large quantities for resale at a discounted
rate.
Distributors purchase marketing/sales kits that
include high-quality, professional materials. The kits are
sold at our cost of $175 and include:
|
• an artistic display case that holds
six mounted blessing art cards and information, which opens
to 31” wide and makes an instant display to show your
customers or to place on a table at sales events. This display
folds down to 14” x 20” x 1.25”, fitting
into the included fabric carrying case making it convenient
for transport.
• six sample blessing art cards, each in a different
design (mounted in above display case)
• description of The Blessing Project™ on logo
paper
• pictures of current projects around the globe
• a fabric binder with an initial supply of order
forms, project descriptions, business cards, etc.
• a black fabric carrying case that holds the display
case and fabric binder with The Blessing Project™
Logo
• a shadow box (6 3/8” x 6 3/8” x 1.75”)
containing one of the designs and blessings

You will be provided
a Distributor number which may be used in the following ways,
depending on how you decide to run your business:
1) You may order products at the wholesale price
when you want to have quantities available for immediate sale—you
keep the difference in the sales you make and the wholesale
price you paid to us. This will be your best way to be prepared
to meet your customer’s needs and take advantage of
bulk sales you’ll make at art fairs/holiday exhibitions
or Ambassador-hosted events. (Volunteer Distributors would
order and pay the retail prices and be reimbursed through
sales made to the customers.)
2) You may provide your customers your Distributor
number or (preferably) assist your customers in ordering products
on our internet web site. This allows you to minimize your
cash outlay and once the products are ordered we take care
of the rest by filling the order and sending it to the customer.
Your commissions will be tracked and sent to you regularly.
(Volunteer Distributors would operate the same way but would
not be paid commissions.)
3) A combination of both methods which will
allow you to maximize your profits.
If you would like to let
us know of your interest in becoming an independent Distributor,
please complete and return this application form.
