My Story
FIRST & FORMOST---I do NOT do DSM, at all, no way, not me, never, not at all, all that pressure selling subscriptions to products, pushing overpriced items to get your cut, your friends not wanting to take your calls. When I was in retail I hated commission sales jobs-No Way, direct sales companies are not for me… Now that that’s clear I must admit Scentsy is VERY appealing. I contacted some of my local representatives, received some positive feedback. I placed an order with each consultant that replied to my email inquiry (I contacted 8, 3 were very timely). While waiting for my orders to arrive I scowered the internet for information on Scentsy and with every passing day, enchanted into the wee hours of the night 11pm,12am,1am…I could not get enough of the information, the excitement of the consultants, the encouraging stories..I was jazzed, energized, inspired; on fire to sell Scentsy-mind you I hadn’t even received my original orders yet. I am a BIG BIG lifestyle fragrance enthusiast! Ever since I was a little girl I have memories of my home scented with something, incents, potpourri, warming spices on the stove in a pot of water, plug-ins, cleaning products, aerosol air fresheners, my parents amazing cooking, CANDLES… I used to work for a VERY popular candle company; I was a customer since I was a teen into my late 20’s when I became a manager of one of their retail stores. When I lived in an apartment, friends joked that they could smell my unit from the curb. I have always received compliments on my personal fragrance choices. A friend once told me “I don’t wish you any ill-will but you have so many candles that if your building burned to the ground it would be the best smelling fire EVER” morbid I know but a complement sill, I’ll take it =0) …. My products finally came in & the warmers are BEAUTIFUL!!! The wax is strong!!! No, I was not happy with all 7 of the scents I picked but: 1) there are 73 others to try-Awesome and 2) The other voice in my house loves the scents that I don’t like, which I still count as a plus for Scentsy (something for everybody). It is August 2010 a transition month a 10% OFF EVERYTHING month, I am excited to see where Scentsy takes me… My friends and family are excited, I have yet to steer them wrong with my zest for home fragrance, the new items coming out for Fall/Winter are so EXCITING!!! I think this Scentsy, Inc. has to be heaven “scent” it stood on its own to consume and overwhelm me to make a platform for it in my life-a product, a company I am very excited to promote! P.S. I am writing “My Scentsy Story” and I haven’t even ordered my kit yet, I meet with Abbie my soon-to-be sponsor this week. Now this is EXCITEMENT!!!
