Have you noticed? As I promised last month, my newsletter is now coming to you in a brand new format. Hopefully you've received your first two editions and found them informative and easy to read. You will always find at least one photo to inspire you, news about products, events, and promotions, and a special box containing current specials and free monthly gifts.
As with any upgrade, this one also brings a few changes with it. One is that your Internet provider might be marking the newsletter as Spam and not delivering it to your inbox. If you haven't received the last couple of issues, you might want to check your Spam or Junk Mail folder, then mark the newsletter as "Not Spam" to make sure you get it promptly in the future.
Another change is that I will no longer be posting the entire newsletter here. Instead you'll find a link to the most current issue in the side bar. You will also find a link where you can subscribe to my newsletter and have it delivered directly to your inbox. Of course, once you subscribe to my newsletter, you will also have the option to unsubscribe. One thing that remains the same is that I will never share your personal contact information with a third party.
I've made these changes with the aim of improving the service I provide to you, my valued clients. I hope you will contact me with your feedback on the new newsletter format and suggestions for what you'd like to see in future issues.

Happy New Year! January Preview
Hooray! It's New Year's Eve. It's been a great year in so many ways. But, I have to admit, I'm kind of ready to get all this year-end hoopla over with and get on with 2011 already! Here are just a few little things I need to tell you before 2011 officially ends:
- Free Shipping on orders of $50 or more ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. Make sure you submit your order before the ball drops to take advantage of it.
- January's special is Buy-Two, Get One FREE! It applies to absolutely everything, so dust off your wish list. The sales period doesn't officially begin until January 4th, but you can contact me with your pre-orders right now. Pre-orders are not available on my website.
- I am now scheduling parties for January and February. It is a great time to share the Buy Two, Get One Free special with your friends, so reserve your date and get ready to socialize, share ideas, and earn free products! February promises more specials, so choose your date before they fill up.
- My personal special for January is FREE Installation. If you are in my area, I'll happily come over to help you install any Uppercase Living expressions. There is no fee and no purchase requirement. All you have to do is schedule a time.
- I'm working on a brand new look for my newsletter. If you'd like to receive it (1-2 times/month and your email address will NOT be shared with any outside party) you can sign up here or let me know to add you to my mailing list.

Late December Newsletter
Happy Holidays!
I hope all of you are enjoying the holiday season, despite the awful weather that most of us seem to be having. With just a few days to go until Christmas, I want to take this opportunity to wish you all the happiest of holidays, thank you for your support this past year, and tell you about some great deals, special offers and changes coming in the new year.
FREE SHIPPING and CLEARANCE SPECIALSFrom now through Dec. 31, get FREE SHIPPING on all orders over $50! Whether you've had your eye on some pieces for your home, have some gifts to get for January birthdays or want to get a head start on Valentine's day, save on shipping when your total order, before sales tax, reaches $50. Getting to $50 will be easy when you check out the great clearance deals in the Special Offers section of my website. You will find a variety of items with deep discounts, including a pre-painted photo board set. Our popular card sets are marked down to $3.95 a pack! There's a lot more that you'll have to check out for yourself, but don't wait because all clearance items are in limited quantity. FREE Shipping and Clearance Discounts are a double deal that you won't want to miss.
LAST CHANCE To Purchase Items from Holiday Mini CatalogDecember 31 is also your last opportunity to order from our popular Holiday Mini Catalog. The exclusive items in this catalog may or may not return in the future, so if you've had an item in mind, don't let it slip away. Among our most popular holiday items have been the Halloween Countdown Set, Mr. Bones, Pumpkinhead Activity Set, Gratitude Tree with dry erase leaves, Holiday Decor Sets, Build-A-Snowman Activity Set and the fantastic Christmas Countdown Kit. But don't forget that so many of the items in this catalog are designed with an everyday option as well as a holiday one. Certainly the Gratitude Tree is lovely year-round. Other great choices are the Double Frameworks Kit, Sentiments Photo Frame Kit, Welcome Kit with Red Vintage Embossed Metal Board, Chalk Wall Placemats and of course, the iron-on vinyl sets. There are also everyday options with the coaster kits and gift tin kits. It's worth taking a final look through this catalog before the 31st to make sure you won't miss anything you've been wanting to get.
Buy Two, Get One Free Special Makes January Parties Even More FunThink about January: the holiday decorations are down and your home looks a little more bare than you remember. Plus with all the holiday activity, including family events, you're kind of ready to get the kids back to school, catch up with friends and resume your daily routine. A really great way to get back into the swing of things in January is to host your own Uppercase Living party. Get some great new decorating ideas (and fill up those bare spots you're starting to notice in your home) and get your friends together to catch up on the holiday news. Put out some light refreshments (no cookies or eggnog!) and I'll bring a fun craft so you and your friends can ease into the new year at a casual get together.
The only way to add to the fun is a great offer from Uppercase Living, so here it is: Buy Two, Get One Free!!! From January 4 to 31, you can choose one item FREE for every two you buy. This promotion applies to all of our catalog items, Photo Prints and even Custom Designs! There are no limits to the savings, so start planning your shopping list. Of course, you don't have to attend or host a party to take advantage of this special. Just place your order with me or online starting January 4. However, a party is always more fun!
I'm now scheduling parties in January and February, when our Inspirations Incentive will be offering more great benefits for customers and hostesses alike. And since it's the season of giving, I'll have a bonus gift for each person who contacts me to schedule a party and mentions this newsletter. The two incentives will definitely make me very busy in January and February, so don't hesitate to contact me to get your preferred party date.
FREE INSTALLATION Special Coming in January!I'm so excited to offer my first ever FREE INSTALLATION special throughout January. If you are one of those people who have purchased some expressions and left them in a back corner of a closet, waiting for the day you get around to putting them up, this special is for YOU! All through January, I'll be making house calls to get those expressions out of the closet and on to the walls! While this offer is limited to those in my immediate area, please let me know if you're a little further out and would like some installation help. I'll do my best to accommodate everyone. Appointments are first come, first served, so contact me now to reserve yours.
Birthday Greetings!Happy Birthday to the following ladies who celebrated their big day in November and December: Irina M, Mary T, Mimi C, Robyn P, Melinda M, Stephanie V, Caroline B, Kristy L, Nancy S, Kristy F, Marcy L, Vicki S, Maria A, Bonnie C, Charissa B, Heather K, Susan F, Gina H, Gina H,Jane M, Pam S, Sharon B, Patti M, Jean B, Holly F, Laurie G, Jessica D, Lauri M, and my sweet friends Amanda, Liz and Jennie. My gift to each of you is 10% off any item of your choice.
Looking Ahead
Hopefully, the next edition of Torreh's Uppercase Living News! will come to you with a brand new look. I'm working on moving my newsletter to a new provider and plan to have it ready for you by the next issue. Please bear with me if there are any hiccups during this transition.

Other things to look forward to include the Uppercase Living Inspirations Incentive, and hopefully a large scale fundraiser to be announced in January. Of course, I never know just what's around the corner, so stay tuned to this newsletter, my blog and Facebook for all the latest information.
Your Double Up Rewards Are In the Bank!
If you've purchased anything from me in the last 6 months, your purchase amount has been doubled and is waiting to be applied to the next Uppercase Living party you host! For many of you, this can increase your FREE hostess rewards by one or even two levels. During the last several months, my hostesses saved an average of $150 to $200 just by hosting a casual Uppercase Living party! To check your Double Up Reward amount, just reply to this email or give me a call and see just how much you have already earned!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
I'd like to extend a special "Thank You" to all of you customers, hostesses, friends and cheer leaders who have supported me and my business this last year. I appreciate each of you and don't take for granted that you allow me into your homes and your lives, tell me your family stories, and use the products I provide to enhance the spaces you live, play and work in. The best part about my job is working with so many wonderful people and watching them enjoy their homes even more when their expressions are applied (I even got a hug from a customer when I helped transform her kitchen this month!). I look forward to working with you all in 2011 and well beyond.
May you all spend the holiday season surrounded by those you love and have a happy, healthy New Year filled with special moments.
All the best,
Torreh

October 2010 Customer Newsletter
Hostess Center Helps Maximize Your Hostess Rewards
Ever since the new Hostess Center on my website was unveiled this summer, hostesses have loved using the tools it provides to help them maximize their free benefits for having a party. It's easy to send out invitations, keep an eye on RSVPs, send reminders, and best of all, watch your rewards add up as your guests place online orders! By far the most exciting part of the Hostess Center is that it allows you to invite friends and family from anywhere in the US or Canada to place orders associated with your party and earn hostess credit for those purchases. This not only gives hostesses maximum flexibility, but it also lets them have online-only parties no matter where they are located. I'd love to help you earn the most hostess benefits possible by using the fabulous Hostess Center. Contact me to schedule your fall party and I'll make sure to help you navigate this fun tool.
Limited Time Left to Take Advantage of FREE Starter Kit Special for New Demonstrators

No matter where you're located, I'd love to talk with you about joining my team (my goal is to have team members in all 50 states!). Call or email me today so we can set you up to take advantage of the FREE Starter Kit and more!
Coaster Extravaganza Coming November 15
My first project party of the season will be a Coaster Extravaganza on Friday, November 5 from 9:30-12:30. Each 4-pack of coasters will be only $15 and you'll have dozens of choices for words and designs to decorate them with. You can even customize them by pre-ordering custom letters, monograms or designs. Don't forget, you can break up a set of coasters for individual gifts (think office gifts, teachers, hair stylists, manicurists, etc.). Email me with your order before Monday and you can also get the FREE Customer Celebration Sampler. Please RSVP as I won't have many extra coasters on hand. If you'd like to have your own project party with your friends, contact me to set it up. A fun time for everyone, completed projects to take home, and hostess rewards for you!

Congratulations Raffle Winners!
Thanks to everyone who attended my Open House last Sunday and Monday. It was great to see some friends I hadn't seen for a while and meet new ones too. It's always fun to tell people about all the ways Uppercase Living can help them in their decorating and gift giving, but it's also great to hear fresh ideas that I haven't thought of. As you know, I love to spoil my customers and hostesses, so I had lots of raffles and giveaways. Here are the lucky winners:

Late August Newsletter
I hope you've all enjoyed an enjoyable and restful summer. Whether you spent it far away or right at home, those long summer days will soon be ending and will be replaced by crisp fall weather, thoughts of the holidays and, in my home, a busy school schedule during the week and juggling three soccer games each Saturday. I also plan to see many of you this fall, whether at one my Uppercase Living Open Houses or Project Days, at your own UL party or perhaps at a friend's. It's going to be a very fun and busy season and I'm really looking forward to reconnecting with my customers and hostesses and meeting lots of new ones too.

My former hostesses will receive their copies of the catalog in the mail as soon as I get them. Everyone can view the catalog on my website starting on Sept. 1. I would also be happy to email a copy of the catalog to you. I will have them available at all of my fall parties and I can also mail you one. Just let me know if you'd like one.
Early birds will be able to save on their purchases from the mini catalog. The 15% off orders of $40 or more discount will also apply to all purchases from the holiday mini catalog through Sept. 9. I can't wait to show you all the cute ideas in this catalog. With lots of different styles, price points and ideas, there is something for everyone here. If you see so much that you can't choose what you'd like, just schedule your own UL party with the goal of getting your wish list for FREE. I'd love to help you earn great holiday decor and gift items while you spend an enjoyable morning, afternoon or evening socializing with friends.
When: Sunday September 26 1:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M.
Monday September 27 9:30 A.M. to 12:30 A.M.
Where: My home in Westlake Village (please RSVP for address and directions)
If you've been thinking of having your own party but haven't gotten the chance, you can invite all of your guests to my Open House and have their orders count as your party. I'll do the cleaning and make the snacks, all you have to do is bring your guests!
Coaster Extravaganza PartyOur coasters are one of our most popular accessories and just about the perfect gift, either as a set or individually. To kick off the holiday season, I will be holding a Coaster Extravaganza at my home on October 15th. I will provide the snacks and supplies to make coasters in lots of different designs. Each set of four glass coasters is $15 (plus tax) and includes your choice of words or designs from my large selection. Word choices include: Thanks (perfect Thanksgiving hostess gift or teacher present), Hope, Love, Peace, Ho Ho Ho, Family and more. I will also have Pink Ribbons (Don't forget: October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month), Poinsettias, Pumpkins, Snowflakes & other seasonal and botanical designs.
You can also order customized monograms, embellishments or even the Coaster Kits in the new holiday mini catalog. My favorite is the Cheers! set which can be used year-round. Contact me for details and pricing on custom orders. All coasters must be ordered by Sept. 25th but if I receive your order and payment by tomorrow, August 31, you will receive an additional 10% off your order. Just let me know how many sets you'd like and plan to come over to have a fun morning creating one of a kind coasters.
If you work during that time, you can still order your coasters and work on them at home. If I get enough requests, I'll be happy to schedule an evening or weekend Coaster Extravaganza too! You can also design your own craft or project party. They are so much fun and everyone leaves with their finished projects! Watch my newsletter for details on an Ornament Extravaganza in December!
Don't Wait to Schedule Your Fall PartyWith so much great holiday product from UL, my Fall calendar will fill up quickly with smart hostesses who prefer to check off their holiday lists with the FREE products they earn with their hostess benefits! For many of you, school has started, sports are underway and the schedules are starting to fill up. Before it gets too hectic, schedule your Uppercase Living party with me so you and your guests can have your orders well before Halloween. Please contact me as soon as possible to reserve your preferred party date. Your hostess kit will include a FREE Fall/Winter catalog as well as the Holiday Mini Catalog so you can start your wish list before your party date. Don't forget: out of town friends and family can now place orders on my website and associate them with your party to help you earn even more rewards!!
It's A Fantastic Time To Join Uppercase LivingJust ranked #138 in the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing companies, Uppercase Living has been achieving tremendous growth. Our innovative products, exceptional promotional materials, and wonderful home office support make us a truly great company to represent. While the economy on the whole has been challenging, direct sales companies have done well, perhaps because many people need to supplement their traditional jobs, or realize that it's no longer enough to rely on steady work from traditional employers. In my business I've noticed that my customers are no longer spending many thousands of dollars on big home remodeling projects but still want an affordable way to personalize their homes with unique custom decor.
With the busy holiday sales season just ahead, it's a great time to consider joining my team and enjoying the wonderful benefits this great "job" offers. Whether you want to use the discount for yourself and a few friends or plan to make this a career, you'll have so much fun sharing our products with enthusiastic clients. Start your own UL business for as little as $99. I'd love to help you get started so just contact me for more information!
Double Birthday WishesHappy Birthday wishes to my customers and hostesses who have birthdays in August and September: Denise B., Jenny W., Marissa H., Wendy G., Laurie R., Sunny B., Erica N., Leah A., Lauren M., Katie C., Kathie F., Gail F., Joyce W., Elsa D., Erin E., Jodi H., Stacey T., and Sarah G., A special Happy Birthday to my sister and my wonderful neighbor Wendy. Ladies, my birthday gift to you is 10% off any item. Please email me directly to take advantage of this discount as I can't apply it to website orders. Happy Birthday to you all!!
Referral BonusAs I work to grow my business, and earn my Caribbean Cruise!, your referrals are my greatest resource. From now until the end of the year, I'd like to thank you for any referrals with a special gift. If you refer a new customer you will receive a mini vinyl sampler. If your referral hosts a party, you will receive a FREE expression from my exclusive collection. And if you refer someone who joins my team, you will receive a Mini Punched Metal Tile in your choice of color and an expression to go on it! I'd love to give away lots of free gifts so please let me know who you think my next best customer, hostess or team member will be. Perhaps it may even be YOU!!
Thank you all for making my job so much fun. I'm looking forward to a terrific fall season with you all!

Late July Newsletter - All Kinds Of Updates!
I know you've all been waiting for all the latest updates from Uppercase Living. Our convention was earlier this month in St. Louis and it was an extravaganza with one exciting announcement after another! The new catalog has been live for about a week and everyone who has seen it has one thing to say: WOW!!! The new Hostess Center on my website is an invaluable tool for hostesses to send invitations, track RSVPs and watch their rewards add up. I have so much great news to share with you all so I'll jump right in!
New Catalog, New Products, New Accessories, New Colors and MORE!
There is so much to love about this great new catalog! If you haven't had a chance to see it yet, you can flip through it right on my website. Of course, there are plenty of new expressions for a variety of spaces and tons of new designs. If you know someone who loves Peace Signs (my daughter is currently obsessed) you will love all the different options incorporating them. There are also new products that you will love:

Of course, there are plenty of new expressions for a variety of spaces and tons of new designs. If you know someone who loves Peace Signs (my daughter is currently obsessed) you will love all the different options incorporating them. There are also new products that you will love:
- Not only are the very popular Chalk Walls back with lots of new designs, but they have a new name: Erasables. That's because now they're available in your choice of chalkboard or dry erase vinyl!!! Both dry erase and chalkboard pens are available to complete the package.
- A gorgeous new Double Frameworks is just one of the great new additions to our Foundations accessories. Frameworks now comes in chocolate brown and our Punched Metal and Vintage Metal Embossed Boards come in gorgeous new colors. We have a beautiful new Frameworks Photo Frame with plenty of room for you to embellish it with UL expressions. For those of you who love to hang our Foundations boards, frames and tiles on the wall, we have two new medallions, including a beautiful Fleur de Lis. Finally, our brand new Shimmer Effects lets you add a little glimmer to any off the wall project quickly and easily.
- New Grande Format and Decorative Print designs give you more decorative options than ever before. I love the 2-part choices and chandeliers in Grande Format and my favorite Decorative Prints are all the interactive choices for children's decor (check out Transportation Central, available in 3 colorways!).
- New clocks! Our clocks have been so popular that we've added 3 new designs. I'm having a hard time deciding which to get for my family room!
- New colors! Our brand new colors are very decorator friendly. You purple people are going to love Concord Grape. I personally think Wild Raspberry and Stone Cottage are both beautiful. And if you've been looking for a true blue, I think our Royal Blue will work nicely for you. We also have more Shimmer colors than ever before. I can't wait to use some of that Shimmer Orange for Halloween!
Of course, you can always view the catalog on my website. But you can get your own FREE copy in your hostess kit simply by contacting me to schedule your own party date. You'll be among the first to see all of the great new stuff and your friends will love having a girls' night out to see what's new and socialize while you earn FREE and HALF PRICE products.
Online Hostess Center Makes Hosting Parties Easier and More Rewarding Than Ever
You asked for it and now it's here: the new Hostess Center on my website gives hostesses a portal to invite their guests, track RSVPs and send reminders, and watch as online orders earn them more hostess rewards than ever before! The most exciting part is that your guests no longer need to live nearby to have their orders count toward your party total. Using the Hostess Center you can now invite guests to your party from anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. They can associate their orders to your party right on my website and have their products shipped directly to them. Meanwhile, you get credit for their orders just as if they were at your home party! There is no longer any sort of geographic limit on who you can invite to your Uppercase Living party. With so much to choose from in our new catalog, your guests are sure to find something that they'll love and you'll love checking off your Wish List as you earn FREE and HALF PRICE items.
I'm currently forming a Focus Group of hostesses who would like to have a party in July or August and use my Hostess Center. I'd love to get your opinions on how you enjoyed using the Hostess Center. If you would like to take part in this Focus Group and earn some bonus products for participating, please contact me to reserve a party date asap.
New Facebook Page
In order to reach more people and serve everyone better, I've created a new Facebook page. Come join me at http://www.facebook.com/ ultorreh for ideas, updates, photos and more. Among other things, I've posted the hostess and customer FREE monthly rewards for July, August and September. If you're planning on hosting a party, take a look and see which month's freebies you like best. It might just help you pick a date!
Complimentary Design Consultations
With an eye toward improving my service to my wonderful customers, I am now providing complimentary design consultations. You can make an appointment to have me come to your home to provide ideas and guidance for some unique ways to decorate using our products. You can also just send me a photo of your space and let me suggest some ways to transform it with Uppercase Living. Simply call or email me to find out more.
Aloha!!!!!!I will be spending some time in Honolulu in August and will have limited time to talk to people about joining my team or placing orders. If you'd like to get together while I'm there, please contact me ASAP so I can fit you into my calendar.
Looking Ahead
Not surprisingly, there will be lots of great ideas and products still to come from UL as we get closer to the fall and (gulp) winter holidays. I'm not going to give away all my secrets, but I promise that you will LOVE them. I will be holding my annual Open House at my home in September and its not too early to start planning your fall parties. If this year is anything like last year, my calendar will start filling up early and I would hate to see anyone miss out on sharing our great products with their family and friends and earning tons for free. I've come back from Convention with tons of new ideas that I plan to put in place in the coming months. Look for more updates to come in the next few issues.
I hope you all enjoy browsing my new catalog either online or in person. I'd love to hear from you and find out your favorite new expressions, colors and products. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Mid-Summer Splash Customer Newsletter
Happy Summer everyone! I hope you are enjoying warm weather, relaxed days and a little extra sleep each morning. Summer is absolutely my favorite time of the year, even more so since I joined Uppercase Living. Every summer, we have the eager anticipation for our annual Convention, where our latest products, colors and expressions are revealed and our newest catalog is unveiled. I can't wait to go this year and come back to share the news with all of you. But before Convention, there are a few things you need to know about now:
Summer Splash FREE FOR ALL Continues!
Our richest promotion ever, BUY ONE GET ONE FREE! - is going strong, but the clock is ticking on the fantastic deals, hostess bonuses and FREE STARTER KITS. Not only are we offering FREE expressions, but all of our accessories (all the tiles, blocks, paints and everything else you all love so much) and the kits in our mini Celebration Catalog are 20% OFF. Luckily, you still have a little time to take advantage of this great opportunity. Summer Splash will end on July 12, but as you know, those last few days of every promotion are crazy, so if you know what you'd like, don't wait to place your order. If you'd like to schedule a party, you still have time...but not much, so let's chat ASAP and get your party on my calendar. Don't forget, any Double Up Rewards you've earned will count toward getting you even MORE free and half-price items.
Retired Expressions List Now Available
I've heard rumors that our next catalog will be the biggest one yet. To make room for all of the new items it will contain, many of our designs are being retired. Frankly, I'm shocked at how many favorites are on the list! The file is too large for me to attach to this email, but I'll be happy to email it to anyone who'd like it. You can also download your own copy here. It's worth taking a quick glance to see if any you've had your eye on are on the retired list; I'd hate for you to miss out on getting one that you really wanted. All of these are part of the BUY ONE GET ONE FREE promotion, too! As I get more information about retiring colors, I will also share that with you. You can always check my blog www.pleaseuseyourwords.com for the latest information.
New Catalog Release
You can begin placing orders from our new catalog starting on July 20 at noon MST. Any parties you schedule after that point will showcase the new goodies! If you've hosted a party previously, please look for an email from me with a special offer. Because I'm so excited to show you and your friends the new catalog and everything in it, I am offering an extra $10 in hostess free rewards to the first person who confirms a party date with me later than July 20th. Don't wait. Free stuff is good, but more free stuff is even better!

Heading to San Diego
I'll be in San Diego in early July for a few days. I have some limited time in my schedule for a home party or to meet to set up a catalog party or discuss the opportunity to join my team for FREE! Please contact me ASAP if you'd like me to add you to my schedule. I'd love to work with some San Diego people!
WANTED: YOUR PHOTOS!
I need your pictures!! I need new photos to post on my blog, include in newsletters and share with my colleagues at Convention. I particularly need photos of your custom designs and unique applications. Pretty please send them to me at torreh@gmail.com. I will be so grateful that you just find a little UL gift from me in your mailbox!
WANTED: YOUR FEEDBACK!
I want to hear from you! How are you liking your products? Did you enjoy being a hostess? Did you have fun at the last party you attended? Do you hate my presentation? Love the make & take project? I'd love to get some feedback from you so that I can make the parties more fun, the ordering process more simple and Uppercase Living even easier to use. Feel free to call or email anytime!

It's a Summer Splash FREE FOR ALL!!! More free products, hostess rewards and FREE STARTER KITS.
Thursday, June 3, 2010
Hello Everyone!
Summer Splash is in full swing and already my customers and hostesses are enjoying the benefits of the Free for All. I also have a couple of ladies who are considering getting the FREE Starter Kit and enjoying the fun and benefits of joining my team . I'm excited to get them on board and share this great business opportunity with them. There is still plenty of time for you to take advantage of all that Summer Splash has to offer.
Making the Most of Summer Splash
The Buy One, Get One FREE special can not only save you a ton of money, but it also allows you to make a big statement by getting more UL for lots less. Perhaps you've been wanting to decorate a large wall with a UL Theme Pack, but didn't want to spend the money on multiple packs. Now you can basically get half of those theme packs for FREE! Maybe you've wanted to do a grouping of Grande Format trees. That would certainly get expensive, but now with Summer Splash it's totally affordable. And if you've been dragging your feet on ordering some large Photo Prints (we parents of multiple children know how quickly "I want one too" can add up) you don't have to wait anymore! With Summer Splash, you can give your home a makeover, create some great gifts and make a big decorating statement....all with Buy One, Get One FREE!
Summer Parties and New Hostess Benefit Program
The Summer Splash promotion has already been popular and my calendar is starting to fill up. This special only lasts until July 12 so there is a limited time to share the great deals with your friends by hosting your own party. Some dates are still available, so don't wait to grab your preferred one. Summer Splash gives all hostesses with qualifying parties BONUS FREE REWARDS and my new hostess program allows you to earn unlimited free products. Just contact me to schedule your party and get all the details.
San Diego Parties
I will be in the San Diego area in early July and will have limited availability to do a party or two. If you or a friend are in that area and would like to get on my schedule, please contact me. I'd love to help you introduce UL to your friends and get all the great deals and rewards we have to offer.
Customer Spotlight: Flash Frozen Photography
This month's customer spotlight is on Flash Frozen Photography in Woodland Hills. The owner, Kathy Rappaport, is a friend from way back. She's set up a beautiful studio space where she takes everything from family portraits to pet portraits to boudoir shots. She also travels for outdoor shoots, weddings and other special events. She chose the perfect expression for her studio:

To save even more, schedule your own Uppercase Living party to share the great deals with some friends and earn free and half price products for yourself.

Customers Love Celebrations Catalog
With ideas for everything you'll celebrate this Spring and beyond, our Celebrations mini-catalog showcases several popular items. Brides are rethinking their wedding decor to incorporate some of the gorgeous ideas it contains. Kids love the magnetic birthday countdown kit (and I have to admit, it's my favorite item in the catalog, too). It is great to select the colors of the lettering to match your decor, party theme or just your favorite combination.

Customer Spotlight
Customer Spotlight
This month I'm starting a new feature in my newsletter: I will showcase a client who uses Uppercase Living products in her/his home or business and tell you a little about the client. This month I'd like to introduce you to Joanne Marek. I met Joanne earlier this year at a UL party at her neighbor's home. She loved our products but was concerned about how the lettering would look on her wallpapered walls. I went over for a home consultation where we not only made sure that our expressions would adhere to her wallpaper, but also chose a color that would complement the pattern, rather than work against it. It's difficult to see in the photo below, but the Vintage Bordeaux expression picks up on the slightly red tones in the wallpaper design. Now that her expression is on the wall, Joanne loves it and is picking out what to get next.

In addition to being a busy mom and grandma, Joanne is a jeweler with Premiere Jewelry. She is available for home parties where her hostesses earn free items just for inviting friends over to shop for lovely, affordable jewelry. To find out more about Premiere Jewelry you can contact Joanne at

There's so much news to share with you that I just couldn't wait until next month to tell you about it.

There are also great opportunities for hostesses and new demonstrators as well as our brand new fund raising program. Here we go!
Final Weeks for Buy 2 Get 1 FREE
As always, our Buy 2 Get 1 Free promotion has been very popular. The special applies to ALL catalog items including accessories, Photo Prints and custom designs. This is a great time to stock up on things like party favors, wedding decor, or anything you'll need multiples of. We love anything that makes gift giving and decorating affordable. The deadline to take advantage of this fabulous promotion is Monday, April 5 at noon (MST). However, I will be celebrating my son's birthday on the 3rd and away on the 4th and 5th with very limited access to our ordering system. If you need my help placing an order, please don't wait until the last couple of days of this busy promotion period. Of course, you can place orders on my website through the morning of April 5th.

NEW! Spring Celebrations Mini Catalog
You can begin placing orders from this new catalog starting April 6. I'll be mailing or dropping off copies to former hostesses this week. I do have a pdf file of the entire catalog which I'd be happy to send to anyone who'd like it. I didn't want to attach it here because it is quite a large file. I can also mail a physical copy to you if you'd like one. Just let me know!
Bump Up Rewards for Hostesses
For a short time in April, qualifying hostesses can bump up their rewards one level to earn even more free and half-price items. To take advantage of this bonus, your party needs to CLOSE between April 6 and April 23. With so many great products not just in our regular catalog but in the Celebrations mini, your friends will have lots to choose from to help you earn big rewards. Because this bonus period is so short, my available dates will fill up quickly. Please contact me ASAP with your preferred dates so we can get your party on the calendar.
Bonus Incentive for New Demonstrators
Through the end of March, I am offering a $25 sign up bonus to anyone who joins my sales team. Here's the simple math: your starter kit, which costs $99 (Essentials Plus kit is $199) comes with a $25 product credit and a $25 bonus from me. That means you're essentially spending $49 on your kit. You choose how you'd like your bonus: cash, products or supplies. UL has so much to offer this spring that your business is sure to get off to a quick start and you'll soon be enjoying working your business the way I do: on your time, around your family's schedule and however you like (in your pajamas, at Starbucks, with friends, ALL OF THE ABOVE)! To learn more about why now is a great time to join my team, read my blog post on this very subject. I'm pleased to tell you that so far this month 3 smart ladies have taken me up on my offer. If you'd like more information about this fun business, just let me know. And if you mention that you read my monthly newsletter, I'll add an extra bonus for you when you join my team.
NEW! Fund Raising Options
Calling all team moms, cheer moms, dance moms and anyone who has a cause you need to raise money for. UL has just announced a fantastic fund raising program for your team or group. Reasonably priced embellishments with custom lettering put money right back into your group. Customized flyers make this process easy to manage. Just contact me so we can discuss how our great products can benefit your group!
Project Night
I'm tentatively planning a Project Night in early May where everyone can work on any kit from the new Spring mini catalog. As always, there will be plenty of refreshments and good company. If you'd like to participate, please send me an email or leave me a comment here. Also, let me know if you have a preferred date, day of the week or time of day. We all had a good time at my winter Project Night/Ornament Party. This will be lots of fun too!
Texas Ladies
I'll be in the San Antonio area briefly during Spring Break. Although my time and transportation are very limited, I'm always up for talking UL. If you'd like to get together to discuss our products or fabulous business opportunity, please let me know. I will do my best to work it into my schedule.
April Birthdays
Happy early birthday to Sabra, Becki W., Barbara Z., Tammy W., and Debbie K. You can each choose one item for 10% off as my happy birthday gift! If your name isn't on my birthday list just send me an email and let me know when it is.
Thanks for reading this far. If you'd like this newsletter sent directly to your inbox, leave a comment and let me know.
I'm looking forward to all of your Springtime parties and can't wait to show you all that's new in our mini catalog.

Happy New Year!
Now that the Holidays are over, it's nice to look ahead to the new year with the anticipation of all that's yet to come. Between the snow, ice and/or rain that we have all been dealing with, it's a little hard to believe that spring is just around the corner. My sense of anticipation for the new year has reached full-blown excitement with the release of our new catalog and a terrific Inspirations Incentive. Having just seen our fantastic new Decorative Prints in person, my mind is reeling with all the possibilities they provide to easily transform practically any space. That's not the only new idea you'll find in our latest catalog. From new formats to great rewards for customers and hostesses, there is lots of news this month.
NEW! Grande Format Expressions
So often my customers try to find a way to combine several small designs to fit a large space. Often this involves some guesswork, perhaps some cutting and repositioning, and an end result that still might not be of the scale required for the space. Our oversized Grande Format expressions solve this problem beautifully. Available in several designs in sizes up to 8 feet high, these are perfect for large walls, vaulted entryways and any space where you want a big impact. View all of the designs here, then visit this post on my blog to watch a short video on how to install these multi-part expressions. Make sure you watch until the very end; the end result is beautiful. While you're there, cast your vote in my poll about our new catalog items.
NEW! Decorative Prints
Our new full-color Decorative Prints are FANTASTIC! Printed in vibrant colors on thick, removable vinyl, these designs are great not just for decorating, but for party decor, business applications, classrooms and anywhere that can use a punch of color and style. The variety of designs, from whimsical to upscale to intricate, give you lots of options for your unique space. I love this "Fun with Fish" print because you can remove the fish over and over and replace them anywhere you want; what a fun choice for a playroom.


Big Rewards for Hostesses
If you've purchased any products from me within the last 6 months, you're on your way to earning great benefits through our Inspirations Incentive. Just host a qualifying party that closes before Feb. 25 and UL will triple your purchase amount and add it to your party total up to $375! You've already earned the rewards, now it's time to enjoy the FREE and HALF PRICE items you will earn when you invite your friends over for a casual lettering and decorating party. Make it even more fun by making it a theme party: cookies and cocoa, wine and cheese, weekend brunch, chocolate lovers' or whatever you'd think would be fun for your friends. My available dates are quickly filling up, so if you'd like to take advantage of this great promotion, reserve your preferred party date now!
NEW! Opportunity
With this new year comes some great new opportunity from Uppercase Living. The most exciting is that we will soon be expanding into Canada!!!! I've already spoken to some ladies who will be among the first Canadian demonstrators for our company. I have information for anyone in Canada who'd like to purchase our products or become a new demonstrator. What an amazing opportunity to introduce our products to a whole new market. Incentives abound for this unique chance.
Here in the States, our Inspirations Incentive makes it even more affordable to become an Uppercase Living demonstrator. Our Essentials Plus kit, regularly priced at $199, is now available for just $129. It includes all the materials you'll need to introduce our innovative products to your friends and family. Plus, it includes a $100 Product Credit! Use the credit to decorate your own home or stock up on display items. This offer is only available for a few more weeks, so please contact me if you'd like more information.
Coming Soon: 2nd Annual Super Bowl Sale
It won't matter which side you're rooting for; everyone wins during my annual Super Bowl sale. I'll send out the details just before the big day and will offer specials and discounts throughout the game.
I Need New! Photos
I love featuring pictures of Uppercase Living products in my customers' homes on my blog. As often as I can, I take pictures during parties or when I help with installations. But I want MORE! So please send me your pictures and you just might see them posted prominently for all my readers to enjoy. Just email them to me at torreh@gmail.com.
