Dachshund Dog Warmer

By Leave a Comment

Doxie, doxy, dashound, weiner dog, weener dog, wiener dog, weenie, or any other way you say or spell the German canine – I’m talking about the adorable, small, long dog.

Scentsy’s new on trend doggie decor, the dachshund dog wickless candle warmer is waiting for a forever home.

It is an element warmer, which means no light bulb to warm the wax. Instead it uses a safe, heating element.

The finish on this puppy is a white crackle glaze, and this pup longs to be adopted.

Take this doggie home today. Order here.

Frenchie the French bulldog shown above is also available for adoption.

Get Scentsy At 25 Percent Off

Love Scentsy, But Would Rather Not Pay Retail and Don’t Want to Host a Party?

When I joined Scentsy in 2006, I told my sponsor, “I’m not building a business, and I’m not holding any parties. I just want to buy for myself. I will be consuming a lot of it, so I don’t want to pay retail.”

That was “my why” – the reason I joined. Fast forward 12 years, I am a top-ranked Scentsy consultant, still loving the products, and I have built an international Scentsy business with fellow team members around the globe. But that was definitely not initially the desire.

Consultants Get 25 Percent Off

Technically, it’s not a 25 percent discount, it’s a 25 percent rebate.  As consultants, the prices you see in the catalog or on the website are what we pay. The difference is that once a month we get paid commissions on sales made to customers and to ourselves over the previous month.  The end result whether you call it a discount or a rebate is the same.

More Than 25 Percent

We can be the both consultant, and earn commissions, plus we can also be the host, and earn host rewards of free product, 50% off and free shipping in the US contiguous 48. That equals more than 25 percent discount, 25 percent off or 25 percent rebate.

There are additional percentages available to earn even more of a discount or rebate but right now I’m mainly talking about those who join for personal use.

Shop From Yourself

Holidays are coming up. There are always birthdays, thank yous and other gifts someone needs. Scentsy has something for everyone – from babies to great grandparents, for guys and for gals. If you’re going to be spending money wouldn’t you rather pay it to your own business and get a percentage of it back?

What Do You Have to Lose? Nothing.

In the United States, the starter kit is $99, plus $10 shipping, plus your local tax – so roughly $116 (+/-) depending on the tax. In your starter kit you will receive products and business supplies valued at more than (almost 3x more) your start up investment. The Starter Kit includes everything you need to start your Scentsy business: a best-selling Warmer, more than 80 scented wax testers, catalogs, order forms, three months of your own personal Scentsy webstore, product samples and more. (Contents may vary.)

Look at worst case scenario – you decide to try it, get some holiday shopping done for yourself, get at least 25% paid back to you, maybe even sell a little to friends, coworkers, and family, and then after a few months you decide to move on. You still have a new Scentsy candle warmer, scent testers for every scent we have and other products to use for yourself. You can melt the scent testers for your personal use.  And that’s the worst case. Best case, is 12 years later you’re still here and loving it!

Here’s Your Nudge

Need a little encouragement or nudge to help you decide? Here’s your nudge, and here’s the link you need to join Scentsy and start getting at least 25 percent off (rebated back.)

I’ll see you on the inside!

 

Helping Someone Is Not Bothering Them

By Leave a Comment

If you’re a Scentsy consultant who thinks asking people if they’re ready for more Scentsy is bothering them, then this post is for you.

How many times have you sat at a restaurant wondering where the server was because you wanted a refill on your beverage, or needed ketchup?

You probably looked all over trying to find her, or at least catch her attention as she came near your table, but never stopped long enough to see if she could get you something.  Irritating, isn’t it?

Yet on a daily basis Scentsy consultants will not “stop by the table” of their customers to see if they are ready for more.  Why? Because most feel that they are bothering their customers if they ask them how they are enjoying what they ordered and if they are ready for more.

Helping Someone Is Not Bothering Them

It doesn’t matter if you’re checking to see if they need more water, coffee, ketchup, or Scentsy. You’re helping them with what they may or may not know they need. It’s being proactive so they don’t have to spend their time trying to find you or catch your eye.

Say it one more time: Helping Someone Is Not Bothering Them. That is what customer service is all about.

Now go help someone today.

Spend Time With Family While You Can

One of the many benefits of being self employed is freedom of schedule.

Whether you want to stay home to raise kiddos, or care for elderly or disabled loved ones, or you simply want the freedom to be available for your family when they need you, working for yourself can afford you that.

I left my federal government career in 2000 to raise my children. As a single mom, who had an excellent job with the feds, leaving all that was almost unheard of. I didn’t have children so someone else could raise them. It was a choice I made and I have never regretted it.

Now that they’re grown and flown, over the last two decades I’ve become extremely accustomed to my freedom.

Sad Day

Gerald B. Ayers

This morning my father-in-law died. It’s a very sad day in the Ayers’ household. It doesn’t matter how old someone is, or even if you have advance notice, you cannot prepare to grieve. You can only go through it.

It is on days like this that I am extremely grateful to have my own business, and to have the freedom to be available for my children, as they mourn the loss of their grandfather.

As they wrestled with what to do today: go to work or don’t go; take time off now, or wait until the funeral; go sit with the family or stay busy, it made me realize that I didn’t need to make those decisions. Instead, my loved ones know that I’m here, to go or to stay or to take care of whatever they need.

Freedom of schedule – as far as I’m concerned, there’s no greater benefit.

Thanks for the memories, Jerry Ayers. You will be deeply missed.

3 Keys to Direct Sales Success

By Leave a Comment

Recently a group of Scentsy Superstar Directors (top leaders) were asked, “What three things would you say were key to your success?”

Take a look at some of the responses. You’ll see that nothing comes easy, but there are common themes among all who have achieved the top rank of the company.

  • Determination, willingness to fail, passion
  • Consistency, determination, originality
  • Consistency, determination, being will to get uncomfortable
  • Mindset, tenacity, authenticity
  • Never stop working, being 100% “all in” no matter what, positivity
  • Consistency, grit, and being willing to learn
  • Consistency, hardworking, willingness to learn new things
  • Fake it until I make it, humility, never give up
  • Consistency, stubbornness, long term vision
  • Consistency, hard work, being kind
  • Determination, getting out of my comfort zone a lot, if something didn’t work I figured out a new way
  • Setting goals, consistent effort, and willingness to work beyond the struggles
  • Willingness to fail, accepting rejection, authenticity (stay true to who you are – no matter what)
  • Planning, passion, products
  • Not quitting, not quitting, not quitting
  • Passion, hard work, belief
  • Consistency, perseverance, determination
  • Relentless, being broke, focus
  • Being teachable, stubborn, living by golden rule
  • Strong why, clear goals, consistency
  • Determination, love and loyalty for the products and company, dream of working for myself from home
  • Consistency, strong way, not just learning but doing

It’s never too late to relaunch your business and give yourself a fresh start. Are you determined to wholeheartedly go after what you want?

I believe in you.

If you’re not already part of the Scentsy family, I’d love to have you join our team.

If you’re a former consultant, you can come back for free. Contact accountservices@scentsy.com to request a reinstatement. You can select a sponsor; you’ll need to provide that person’s name and consultant ID. (Laurie Ayers #505)
