Bring Back My Bar

You know what one of my favorite thing about Scentsy is? Bring Back My Bar! Every January and July Scentsy will release 20 scents who have been previously discontinued They will be available for one month only. As a Scentsy Consultant I am able to receive them early and have been busy trying out all the new scents I have never seen before.

Bring Back My Bar

Here are the 20 scents that are returning!

Bananarama – Sweet, golden, ripe bananas.

Berry Blush – Tart açaí berry, sweet peach nectar, and tropical notes of guava, ylang-ylang, and yuzu.

Carrot Cake – Irresistibly sweet, nutty, warm, and spicy, just like carrot cake.

Cherry Almond Pie – Orville’s favorite dessert. Graham crackers, sweet almond, cream, and cherries.

Coconut Palm – A blend of tropical coconut and musky patchouli with subtle green notes.

Coffee Tree – Bold and sophisticated. Wake up to the rich aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans.

Falling Leaves – An earthy blend of clove, cinnamon, and patchouli.

Inner Peace – Earthy wood notes with the unmistakable scent of lemon groves and rejuvenating cypress.

Just Peachy, Ginger! – Mouthwatering peaches, apricots, and nectarines, infused with the essence of ginger.

Lots of Lavender – Calming blend of chamomile and lavender.

Maple Butter – Lightly sweetened maple syrup swirled with whipped butter, earthy pumpkin, and warm, autumnal spices.

Pima Cotton – A light, clean blend of lilies, freesia, and jasmine.

Root Beer Float – Concoction of old-fashioned root beer and creamy vanilla ice cream.

Sage & Sweet Grass – Fresh picked herbs on a background of sandalwood. This sacred Native American herb is said to purify.

Spiced Orange Harvest – Strong, sweet oranges spiced with cloves and cinnamon.

Spiced Grapefruit – Mandarin and bergamot citrus perfectly balanced with spicy coriander, nutmeg, and allspice.

Tahiti Pear – Freshly shaved coconut with notes of sweet pear.

Twilight – A lovely, sophisticated scent, infused with soft romantic florals and ocean air. Romance,

You Go, Girl – A lighthearted, girlish fragrance of apples, berries, muguet, and linden blossoms.

Wild Black Cherry – A sweet and juicy black cherry, like an old-fashioned black cherry soda.

I think my favorites are Coffee Tree and Coconut Palm. Going to be stocking up on those before the end of the month.

Have you tried any of these scents? Since I have been selling for two years now I am starting to see some scents that I remember selling in the past become a part of Bring Back My Bar. If you are interested in any of these scents, you can buy a 6 or 3 pack online. Buying the multi-packs is a great way to save a little bit of money.

I love that even though a scent might be discontinued, there is always a chance that it will show up again.

Does Direct Sales really work?

Sell ScentsyDoes Direct Sales really work?

I admit it.  Before I became an Independent Scentsy Consultant I wasn’t too sure that Direct Sales would work too well.  I didn’t think it was possible to add to my downline.  I just wasn’t sure what to expect when I joined.

I think Direct Sales can work well for you if you put the effort into it.  If you sit back and hope sales will come to you, they probably won’t.  You have to get out there and let people know you sell whatever it is you are selling.  It can be person to person or online.  There are different ways of running a Direct Sales business.

The great thing about Scentsy is that if someone has heard of it, they usually love it.  And if they haven’t heard of it, they usually think it is pretty cool.  I have gotten several sales from people who just see a Scentsy warmer and have to have one too!

Direct Sales can be frustrating at times because you might go through periods of time where sales are slow or not as busy as other times.  Just remember that sales can fluctuate like that but usually they even out.  It also gives you a chance to re-evaluate how you are working your business and what you might need to change.  You can really take the time to think about what works and what doesn’t.

Don’t spend time on ideas that don’t really work!

If nothing else, come back to them later.  For example, say you send out 100 catalogs at every new catalog launch.  From those 100 catalogs you get 2 orders.  Is that worth your time?  If you feel it isn’t, quit doing it.  At least for right now.  Maybe that strategy works best closer to Christmas or at a different time of year?  Maybe postcards work better than full catalogs?  Play around with it but don’t spend too much time on something that isn’t working for you.

Remember that if you keep going and other people don’t, you will come out ahead.  If your Direct Sales climate is like mine, you might just be 1 of 1000s of consultants in your city all selling the exact same thing.  However, not everyone is cut out for Direct sales and not everyone is going to keep at it.  If you keep going, you will come out ahead.

In the end I do believe Direct Sales really works.  Is it for everyone?  No, but I think a lot of people can make it work if that is what they want to focus on.

 

Why I love Selling Scentsy

Selling Scentsy

 

I have been selling Scentsy for 15 months now! For some reason I thought it was a great idea to start with Scentsy right after my third little boy was born. In the end it turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. Now 15 months later I have just become a Director, have a team of 20, group of 47 and have enjoyed selling Scentsy and seeing all the new products as the catalogs change and as new lines and brands get added to the Scentsy name.

Here are my reasons why I love to sell Scentsy!

1) Everybody seems to love it- Because Scentsy is popular and most people either already love it or think they will love it when they hear about it, it makes it a lot easier to sell. You are not having to try to get people to buy something that most people won’t be interested in.

2) I have a great upline- My sponsor is awesome! She is always there for us. She does her best to make sure we have the tools we need to get where we want to get. I know as I start my life as a Director I can learn a lot from her.

3) You can truly work from home- With Scentsy you can do most of everything from home. If home parties are not your thing you can do basket and online parties. You can have Open Houses in your own home and you can sell to friends and family who live in other parts of the country. Our websites make it very easy for us to do this.

4) I love all the scents-I get so excited when I hear about a new scent. I love to smell them and excited to see what Scentsy is coming out with next. I also love BBMB (Bring Back My Bar) where I get to use scents that I haven’t had the chance to try yet or be able to warm scents of bars that I have been missing. You can actually vote for BBMB right now. We will have the bars available for purchase in July!

5) Pretty warmers- When I first picked up a Scentsy Catalog I realized there were so many different warmers I would love to have. There are warmers for every personality and every season. I love that!

6) New items- Scentsy has only been around since 2004 which means it is still considered a new direct sales company when compared to other direct sales companies. Scentsy is still growing and it is exciting to be apart of it :)

If you have any interest at all in Selling Scentsy, please feel free to contact me about it. I would love to answer any questions you might have :) I really think Scentsy is a great way to work from home, start your own business or just enjoy your favorite Scentsy items even more than you already have. Our starter kit is just $99 and it is worth taking the chance to see if Scentsy will work for you :)
