THE IMPRESSIVE TIMES
November, 2001
Hi Everyone,
Firstly I would like to thank everyone for their understanding and patience during our move, and I am happy to say that we are almost installed in our new premises. Our new contact information:
Address: 6 Julie Street
Beenleigh
QLD 4207
Phone: (07) 3804 5066
Fax: (07) 3807 4320
(the fax number will change later when the second line is installed).
Email: Unsure of new email as yet. However both older emails will work for the next month or so.
Website unchanged: http://go.to/impressivestamps
Just a small word of warning we will be renovating and making improvements over the next few months, hopefully this will be progressed in a way that does not affect the efficiency of orders etc.
Sales Contest
We are happy to announce our final Sales incentive for the year. This contest will run from Thursday, 1st November, 2001 up to and including orders received by 5pm on Thursday 6th December, 2001. Those who have placed an order this week will already be on their way towards qualifying.
The prizes for this contest will be distributed at the Christmas Party or the week after for those unable to attend. To qualify for this contest the minimum wholesale purchases from Impressive Stamps Australia during the period must be $500.00 in resellable products (excludes Postage and Demonstrator Sales Tools). This is a very low qualifying amount; only 2 – 3 parties in the 5-week period and you would qualify.
The twist for this contest is that everyone who qualifies will automatically receive a gift (approximate value of $30.00 retail). When you do qualify I am open to your suggestions as to what you would like for your qualifying gift!!! If you do not give me a suggestion I will choose something nice for you.
Apart from the qualifying gift we will have three major prizes:
First Place: The prize for most sales will be a Crop In Style - XXL Tote. Retail value approx $370.00
Second Place: An assortment of accessories including Coluzzle, Brilliance Pads and some stamping books. Retail Value approx $150.00
Third Place: The Coluzzle Cutting System; Coluzzle Knife, Coluzzle Mat and three Coluzzle Templates. Retail Value $90.10
I hope everyone will work towards one of the major prizes. That means to start booking parties now!! Remind people that now is a great time to have a party before the silly season starts!!

Finally after much deliberation we have arrived at some starter kits that I am sure your customers will be happy with. Thank you very much to all at the last sales meeting who helped design the kits.
