Cheat Sheet for Earning the You-Pick-It Promo!

As you and your customers plan what you’re going to order to meet the qualifying spend amount, use the handy checklist of ALL that’s launched so far in 2026! There are two ways to use it:

Something big is about to arrive — something Advisors who purchased Vote Box #3 have known about for a year! Now it's every Advisor's chance to be among the first to explore the all-new Die-Cutting & Embossing System on the Launch Preview page.
And this isn’t a one-and-done launch — it’s the start of a system you can build and collect as we expand with new metal dies, embossing folders and designs coming throughout the rest of this year and into next. Even better: Special launch pricing is coming! For the first 5 days, save 15% on the Starter Set Bundle and 25% on the Decorative Set Bundle.
We're making shopping easier, too! Next week, find everything in one dropdown under Adhesives, Tools & Storage > Die-Cutting & Embossing System. Plus, next week look for the Build-A-Bundle option on select products to make building your system even simpler. You’ll be prompted to easily add everything you might want — from bundles and individual metal dies and embossing folders to add-on tools and storage.

Ever heard the phrase “work smarter, not harder?” This mindset is vital in a thriving business; you don't need to reinvent the wheel — you just need to find what works and excites your customers and then repeat it! Today, we're going to craft 1 piece of content to advertise your upcoming Croptoberfest or any event, and then use it in multiple ways. Here's a top hint — look at what you did last year, what worked. Resurrect it and do it again!

The CM Collective is your hub for resources, training, community connections and business support — and we're excited to help you get even more value from it! Whether you're a new Advisor or a seasoned leader, these quick trainings will help you save time, discover valuable resources and connect more confidently within our Advisor Community.

Watch for new episodes every Tuesday (AU: Wednesday) in the “Mastering the CM Collective” space, as well as in the Advisor Update and Advisor Facebook Groups!

Twelfth Annual PA Convention “And it’s a wrap! For 12 years we have pulled off training that excites, ignites and propels amazing women forward! The work poured into is all worth it when they register again, bring their new team members and tell us about their successes! It’s beyond anything I ever dreamed of!
In 2019, I thought we had maxed out attendance and where we could take this event.
2020 taught me that I had a lot of learning to do as I curled in a ball and cried after the first hybrid event.
Then my husband, Tracy Parrish Robinson, and Joan Marso reminded me that I don’t quit.
2021 was better. It’s now 2026. And wow! I round up the speakers, the classes, coordinate, get Zoom boxes out, and many other crazy things. Tracy keeps virtual running smooth as silk. Joan ties us together and keeps it humming. And together we ran what registrations and comments tell me was a darn good event for over 200 Advisors!
Thank you to Esther Hulshizer, Caroline Rouen Dixon, Annalisa Smola and Sheila Conlon for doing some amazing training!
Our trip panel full of first-time trip attendees from my first-line team was very enlightening! Linda Wright, Carole Tice, Sherry Hammaker, Mary Jo Murrell Keiter rocked it. I loved how they all started and ended differently and got exactly what they wanted.
And Tammy Gerrits-McEwen, Lanita Medina, Bev DeBono, Barb Brand Best, Beth Saunders and Mary Beth MacClaren for putting together some amazing classes that weaved in training too.
Of course sooooo many people helped with a million little things, including five of my customers who took care of the store and the feeding and care. What I’ve learned in my life is that no matter how BIG I dream, I can always dream bigger. No matter how much I do, I can always do more. The secret is having the right people in your life. ❤️❤️❤️” - Advisor Cassie Oelberg
