Q: I've heard a lot about memberships and subscriptions lately. What's the difference?
So that's it -- our first installment. You can expect me to periodically update this blog with all things Breezy. Until then -- keep on scrappin!
A: Let's start with memberships. Breezy Design is, for all intents and purposes, a shopping club. Membership in the club is divided into two types of members: Standard Club Members and Choice Club Members. To become a member, you pay an annual membership fee -- currently $25.00 per year. Once this fee is paid, you become a Standard Club Member, and you are entitled to a 25% discount on all of your purchases. To receive a higher discount, you need to subscribe to our monthly autoship program.
Autoship subscriptions are based on month-to-month single purchases. Our autoship subscription offers two choices: the PaperSeeds Monthly Kit, and the BreezyD Monthly Certificate. The kit is always $25.00 per month, plus shipping/handling, and represents a retail value of $40.00. The certificate is $25.00 per month and provides you with Breezy Design credits on account (there is no cash value to these credits, they only have value when used within Breezy Design's shopping cart system). Once this purchase is made, your discount rises to 35% for the entire month. You can participate one month, and not the next, and then resume your participation the following month. As long as you subscribe to autoship, you receive the higher discount.
Autoship subscriptions are managed through the Autoship Update Utility (located in the purple navigation bar on the website). This provides a secure and reliable way to modify your subscriptions from one month to the next. We'll talk about the Autoship Update Utility in more detail in a future post.
So that's it -- our first installment. You can expect me to periodically update this blog with all things Breezy. Until then -- keep on scrappin!
