"Holiday Hits" Early Publishing Discounts Available November 1st with Heritage Makers!

"Holiday Hits" Early Publishing Discounts Available November 1st!

During November you can double your discounts by taking advantage of two great specials! The first you already know about–the “Gotta Try It!” publishing points packages. This is simply the best way to get started in Heritage Makers. Save 40% when you buy packages of 25, 70, or 150 points combined with a 3-month Premier account.

Now “Holiday Hits” provides a second way to save! Each week during November we are featuring a different group of Heritage Makers products. If you complete and publish these items within the specified weeks, you will getan additional 10% discount at checkout. In other words, the points required for each item will be reduced by 10% when they go to publish. What a great way to stretch your dollars during the holiday season! Here’s an example: The regular price for a 16 x 20 wrapped canvas is $89.95, but if you publish during the second week of November (7th-13th) you will only be charged $80.95.

To help you plan for the holidays, we have created a special “Gift Publishing Planner.” It lists each product included in the promotion and indicates the time period during which the project should be published to receive the 10% discount. It also has a weekly planner/gift list with blank lines so you can fill in names, specific gift ideas, and the number of points required for each item. Total the points for all of the items on your list. If you need more points, consider purchasing one of the “Gotta Try It” options (if you need Premier), or a regular points package (if you already have Premier). You can download the Gift Publishing Planner here.

Holiday Hits will be officially announced November 1st. A special home page ad will link to further details on the early publishing specials and several helpful resources. For example, there will be links to specific project suggestions in the template gallery. Furthermore, Lynda Angelastro has recorded special 15-20 minute video demos for each week offering gift ideas, tips and tricks, and more! This is the best time of the year to be a Heritage Maker. Don’t miss this opportunity to create holiday gifts that will be cherished by everyone on your list!

Note: The current “Card Crazy” special is creating a lot of excitement. Guess what’s on the list for an early publishing discount during the first week of Holiday Hits – that’s right – greeting cards! Buy cards now and get a double discount (or increase the discount they already received) by publishing your cards early!

THE POWER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

“Many people can say Oprah has made a difference in their lives. But not many people can say they’ve made a difference in Oprah’s life!

With this small storybook, I had a huge impact on a very influential person. Now, that’s the power of storybooking. And that’s why I am a Heritage Makers consultant.”

- Brenda Kruse

Take a look inside the storybook Brenda created for Oprah. “Gracie’s gift” to Oprah was a valuable lesson we all could learn—take time to slow down.

As I am watching the STORY that is unfolding as Heritage Makers is growing, changing and becoming a formidable player in the space of digital story and scrapbooking, I am amazed! I am amazed at how many fantastic, talented and committed consultants we have, who have not only have a great passion for the product, but a vision of what this company can be and do!

As I read this quote this morning, I thought back several years to when our own little Sharon Murdoch, co-founder of Heritage Makers, made a courageous decision. She chose to take scarey and unsure ROAD to create a new company based on her love for STORY. She made the courageous decision to leave her secure job as a Professor, take a financial and personal risk, and create a company that we now all love and have so much passion for.

She has seen many miracles, as have I, as her little idea has become part of a movement of people looking for ways to tell their stories, and preserve their precious memories.

I am so glad that I had the courage to join her, and that you have had the courage to join me!

This is a VERY exciting time to be involved with this company!! I can see so many things coming together, as this company is just the beginning of what I believe will be one of the biggest direct selling companies ever!

Sharon had a dream and had the COURAGE to step out and pursue it! What are you dreams? Are you ready to take the steps needed to make them come true? CREATE your own SUCCESS story by taking thost steps, and don't wait for tomorrow!!

I challenge each of you to overcome whatever FEAR is stopping you and have the COURAGE to make your HM Business whatever you want it to be!!

Be like Sharon and take the first step, make those calls, book your celebrations, set goals to advance, set goals for you personally and for your family!! Step out and make it happen!! Be the person who makes your own STORY, a SUCCESS!!!

I have faith in each of you and I am cheering for you!!

Preserving Heritage in Her Neighborhood

Preserving Heritage in Her Neighborhood

"Last April, Iplaced an article in my neighborhood newsletter telling people what I do with Heritage Makers. One of my neighbors, Chris, asked if Iwould be willing to put together a book for her two children. We met together and agreed upon the book type, the time frame and the price of the project. Iwas very nervous about the project because this was the first time I had created a book for someone other than myself.

My neighbor organized all of the pictures, told me which pictures should go on which pages, and gave me text to go with each one. The only design advice she had for me was to keep it simple and classic. She handed everything over to me in the beginning of September. Iwent to Reunion looking for ideas, and Icame back with so much more, including the option to create the book in the new 11x13 Legacy Edition! My neighbor and her husband loved the new size and the leather cover with dust jacket.

Now it was time for me to get started. Iscanned over 225 photos and created a beautiful book of over 100 years of their family history. Iwould meet with Chris to review what Ihad completed and she would proofread my work.

This book was intended as a surprise Christmas present for Chris’ two grown children, Sandy and Todd. During the creation process, Ihad to be discreet when Icalled or met with my neighbor, and Ihad to check and make sure the kids’ cars weren’t in front of the house.
During this process, my neighbor became very ill. Fortunately, gall bladder surgery provided some relief. Chris called me on Christmas Day to share how much her children loved the storybooks about their heritage. Chris’ daughter Sandy explained that one day, during this book creation process, she had called her mom’s house while Iwas there. Chris’s husband, Bob, answered the phone and told Sandy that her mom couldn’t come to the phone because Laura was here. "Oops," said Bob, "Iwasn’t supposed to tell you that." Sandy thought Iwas a nurse and that her mom was much worse than she had been letting on. When Sandy found out who Ireally was, she was elated and relieved.

Before working on this book, Ihad only known Chris as a neighbor. I’d wave or say hello or talk to her about neighborhood issues, but that was all. Working with her on this storybook, Ireally got to know her. She is a wonderful woman who cares so deeply about her family. Ifeel blessed that she chose me to help her preserve her heritage. Heritage Makers made it possible for me to develop a friendship with someone Imight not have gotten to know otherwise."
