What can Scentsy do for you?

I became a Scentsy consultant at the end of November, 2010. Since then; I have sold over $7000 worth of Scentsy products, been promoted twice, and met lots of new people. This weekend, to reward my hard work (and to help me with my Scentsy business), I bought myself an iPad2 with my commission money.


I joined Scentsy because . . .
  • I'm a Scentsy addict
  • I believe in the quality of Scentsy products
  • I like the core values Scentsy promotes: Simplicity, Authenticity, Generosity
  • I like to meet new people (really--it's true)
  • I wanted to have my own home business

Why Scentsy?

Scentsy is one of the fastest growing direct selling businesses. Scentsy joined the Direct Selling Association in 2004. It is one of the top 100 direct selling companies as identified by the Direct Selling News. In its first 7 years, Scentsy generated more than $700 million in revue. Scentsy is sold in the US and Canada--and now is expanding to the UK and Germany!

The US start up costs for joining Scentsy is reasonable at $99 plus tax. The starter kit includes:
  • 80 party testers
  • 1 full size warmer
  • 1 Scentsy Buddy
  • 1 Scent Pak
  • 1 Room Spray
  • 1 Fragrance Foam
  • 1 Travel Tin
  • 1 Scent Circle
  • 4 light bulbs
  • 50 catalogs
  • Discover Scentsy DVD
  • Start-up guide
  • Planning calendar
  • 100 business cards
  • 100 invitations
  • 100 order forms
  • 5 host guest lists
  • 5 host rewards brochures
  • 5 host envelopes
  • 5 Buy brochures
  • 5 Host brochures
  • 5 Join brochures
  • 1 folder

Additionally, the start-up costs include a free website for 3 months ($10 a month after that), free credit card processing (and no credit card fees), free shipping on orders over $150, and a free online workstation. There is also great consultant support and training. When someone joins Scentsy, he or she must join under (i.e., be sponsored by) another consultant. This allows the new consultant to have an immediate support system. There are weekly training conference calls, web-based trainings, an online forum (one of my favorite training tools!), annual and seasonal trainings, and a consultant support department.
Commission is based on ranking and is no less than 20% of a consultant's personal retail volume. The more a consultant sells and recruits others to the Scentsy team, the more the consultant can earn. Commission is paid monthly via a VISA debit card--how cool is that?
