The Wickless Sparklers
Welcome to Scentsy and our Team
Welcome to Scentsy & The Wickless Sparklers:
You have just become part of a wonderful opportunity for those who want to get in on the ground level of an exciting and rapidly growing Direct Sales business. Scentsy has been an amazing adventure for me and I am so excited to watch you grow and develop your Scentsy business into whatever you want it to be! I am here to support, guide and cheer you on as you make your dreams become reality.
Please know that you can contact me (info at the bottom of the page) if you have questions or need assistance at anytime.
Your Consultant Start up Guide will be your Scentsy bible and it is full of information you will want to become familiar with. Take some time to read through it.. In addition to your handbook, there are some things that are important for you to know as you get started in your business.
Setting up Your Website Profile - You should become familiar with your Consultant Workstation as soon as possible (web address is workstation.scentsy.us, login with your consultant ID and password). One of the most important things you will want to do is to personalize your Scentsy website by going to Edit my PWS. This is where you can make your Scentsy website your own by checking the boxes of name, phone number, email address etc. that you want to show up when people access your web page. You can also make a personalized message and update it anytime. You will also want to log on to your Workstation almost every day to watch for new, important company news and information in the scroll box. Feel free to “play around” with putting in a party order or a business supply order. It won’t hurt anything and you can delete everything that you do online before it is sent for good.
Additional options from your workstation- You have a few new options to select right from your consultant workstation. One is the “Resource” tab, another is the “Training Center” at the top right hand side of your page. The “Resource” tab constantly updated with new promotions, company events, announcements, monthly newsletters and documents that will help you promote your Scentsy business. Check this site as often as possible….at least every other day. There are additional options, so check it all out! The “Training Center” great ideas to jump start your business in the first 70 days.
Customer Newsletter- Included with your website subscription, comes a monthly CUSTOMER newsletter that Scentsy produces and manages for you, all you have to do is add your customer emails. This is a “permission-based” newsletter, so before you add any emails, you must be authorized to do so first. Once you start building up a good customer base, your customers will receive a very professional looking newsletter and will give the monthly product specials, what new things are happening, and if you want you can add your photo and message to personalize it. There are instructions on your workstation on how this newsletter works, so take some time and look over it.
Your First 15 Days – Scentsy offers a great Enhancement Kit (also known as the Shooting Star Award) to Consultants who reach $500 in personal retail volume (PRV) in their first 15 days (from signing date) with Scentsy. When you reach the $500 PRV mark within the 15 days, you can then purchase within the next 90 days.
Your First 70 Days – Scentsy offers you the opportunity to reach one of three levels in your first 70 days (it’s actually 70 because they give you 10 days for your kit to arrive and to get organized and started) called the Scentsational Start. You can achieve the levels by hitting specific Personal Retail Sales Volumes, recruiting new consultants or a combination of both. At each level you earn a merchandise credit ranging from $50-$200. If you have questions or need clarification, please ask! Set your goals in your Scentsy business for the first 70 days around the level of Scentsational Start you want to achieve!
Monthly Sales Award – You can earn this award by achieving $2,000 in Personal Retail Sales each month. The award is a 5% override on your total PRSV, so if you reach $2,000 in PRV, you will receive a $100 bonus. If you reach $3,000 PRV, your bonus would be $150, etc.
Scentsy Marketing Materials through the Scentsy Family Store – In addition to the marketing items that Scentsy offers directly, there is also Scentsy Success that has created a lot of wonderful marketing material for us. I love the personalized business card, invitations and their mini-catalogs. You can access Scentsy Success through your workstation.
Supplies – You will want to determine what kind of supplies you are going to need to hold parties. What do you want to store and transport your party testers in? Do you want to use clipboards or folders for the catalog, order form, scent list and door prize drawing form you will give customers at your parties?
Do you want a tablecloth and other décor items to use with your warmer display etc? Feel free to ask me or other consultants what they do and what works best for them and then adapt it to what will work best for you!
What’s considered a party? 150PRV or $150 in sales prior to tax/shipping. Shipping is free for party orders of $200 or more in retail sales within the contiguous U.S. Direct-ship orders ($5 minimum charge) and orders to Alaska, Canada, Hawaii, U.S. territories, or APO/FPO’s will incur a charge. I suggest that all local parties be shipped directly to you. This gives you the opportunity to quality check the product and label each bar and warmer with your information (consultant labels attached). Especially with basket parties, usually you do not meet the customers, it’s great to place a ‘thank you’ card in their bags (provided in every order from Scentsy) to let them know your hostess specials.
All of the above are just some of the most important things I want every new consultant to be aware of as soon as they begin their Scentsy business. There are many other things that will be covered in your New Consultant training and other things that you will just continue to learn as you move along in Scentsy and begin to gain experience.
Again, welcome to Scentsy and best of luck as you begin this wonderful new business venture! The Wickless Sparklers will be here to support and encourage you as you get started on your Scentsy journey! This Facebook page will be your communication hub. Everything you need will be here. We are always here for you.
