Biggest Single Sale and Largest Party total?
 
OK, just read the post about the total cost,; if you purchased everything in the catty excluding personialized stamps and it was like $13,000 and some odd dollars. Anyways it got me thinking: "Whats the biggest single sale" anyone's had from a single customer?? Second, "What's the largest party total?" you've had. I'm not a SU demo so I can't speak for a single sale , but I've had PLENTY of parties and my biggest party was $750. I was very excited but I know there has been MUCH bigger parties out there!!!!

I am not a demo either, but, and I hate to admit it, I ordered over $300 one month on my own. It was one year when I really liked a lot of things on the retired list and didn't want to go without them.

OK a while back there was a story in the stampin succes about a top gal having a HUGE new catty open house- and I mean HUGE!! I think she had a $10,000.00 (not a typo!!)or so party!! And I think she left it as a huge order so she could be the one with the largest order ever!! WOW! One level 3 set for a 10grand order!! lol but think of the freebies she got!!! 15% over $750 is......LOL

Doodah 07-04-2006 11:58 PM

My first year in a 10-club my party was $1150. Almost everyone in the club broke $1000 that year.

I'm not a demo, either. My blockbuster party was last year - $1300 +!!!! Have no idea how it happened (other than having a friend who buys lots and doesn't want to do a party herself!). I split hostess bennies with her and we each had level 3 hostess! :D Probably will NEVER happen again, but it sure was neat to experience it once!

My biggest workshop was $1300, and single order $350.

basketwilma 07-05-2006 06:15 AM

Wow! Congrats to everyone! Most of my friends don't stamp and I'm lucky if I get to $150! Boy I have to find some new friends!!! :) I've recently found some new stamping buddies so I'll have to try a party out sometime soon!

Froma regular ws show just over $1,000 (maybe ($1,100-around there) and the boggest single order was over $600 form one person. She went to Micheal's to compare prices and then bought SU out the wazoo. The person who hosted the party became my very 1st recruit. Her friend still stamps and is a great customer:mrgreen:

Doodah 07-05-2006 06:56 AM

WOW, It looks like around $1,000 - $1,300 is the average on the BIG parties, so far. Anymore?????

Kerilou 07-05-2006 07:16 AM

Wow! I am amazed...I have had an SU party for the past 3 years on Columbus Day weekend...I usually average about a $750 party...I thought I was good...These numbers are awesome!

Michellelovesscrap 07-05-2006 08:30 AM

My biggest single order was 450.00. my biggest party total was 825.00.

veganf 07-05-2006 09:05 AM

My biggest party was before I became a demo. The party at my house was over $750 and it was also my demo's largest.
My personal largest single order was my own, placed for retiring sets last month: just over $500.

The party I hosted a few months back had $2300 and my demo said it was her biggest party ever. Her largest one before that was $1500 a month previous. I was amazed at how much free stuff I earned because I only spend about $400 on my order.

WHEN SU use to show the HIGHEST HOSTESS ORDER TOTAL on the back cover of ON STAGE (a demonstrator achievement and recognition magazine), $9,333.01 (US) and $8,524.79 (CAN) were given. This ocurred in Oct-Dec 2003. It's difficult to fathom how many people were at those workshops!!

EM+MM 07-07-2006 08:00 AM

My biggest party total before S+h and txs was $1395.60. One person ordered $852.95(with a final total of $1069.64)! It took up two order sheets to list what she bought! I was so amazed to see someone live out what I only dream of doing.

craftygirl04 07-07-2006 08:47 AM

My highest party was about $825.00 Canadian. I'm only a customer but I was happy with the free stuff.

twilamooneyham 07-07-2006 09:14 AM

almost $4000.00
 
It was a few years ago, I called a customer who had moved back home...we are military, and her husband had died in a car accident a few months before. I had sent her the retirement list...she sent me her HUGE WISH list from the entire catalog. I then called her a few days later to see if there were any stamps she wanted before they were gone, and she asked how much to get them...so I added up all the retiring ones on her list and called her back...it was about $700.00. She then asked me how much for everything on her list...so I hung up, added it up and then called her back. It was almost $4,000.00. When I told her how much everythin was she said okay...just put that in for me...I was like WHAT!!! She said, yep just order everything on my wish list and have it sent ot me...I was so excited...I came out of my stamp room doing a happy dance...and hollerin'. My husband thought that I was crazy..I said I just made over $700.00...he said 'huh?!?'. I told him what happened. He was excited for me and I got to order stuff out of the NEW catalog when it came out. I did split the order up into seeral smaller orders so she could get more hostess sets, and for her free stuff she got cardstock and accessories that I got to pick out for her...

Very Exciting Day for me...
