A little bit about Scentsy:
Scentsy began with a simple idea — a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles — and quickly grew into one of the most successful direct selling companies in the world. This wickless concept is simply decorative ceramic warmers designed to melt scented wax with the heat of a light bulb instead of a traditional wick and flame. Entrepreneurs Heidi and Orville Thompson encountered the product line at a home show in early 2004, purchased the tiny company, and moved Scentsy to Meridian, Idaho, where the company’s first home office was a 40-foot ocean shipping container on a small sheep farm. The Thompsons were inspired by how the fragrance of wickless candles could bring powerful emotions and memories to the surface — without the safety risks of a burning candle — and launched Scentsy as a party-plan company that same year. Scentsy joined the Direct Selling Association (DSA) in 2004 and enrolled its first Independent Consultant. Since then, the company has expanded operations, hired a strong executive team, extended its product line, innovated around the Scentsy business opportunity, and received numerous awards for its growth and ethical business practices. Scentsy was named the number one consumer products company on the 2010 Inc. 500 list, ranked among the top 100 on the 2011 Inc. 500 list, appeared in the 2010 Direct Selling News Global 100 list of top direct selling companies, and received the DSA’s 2010 and 2011 Success Awards and the DSA’s 2009 Rising Star Award. In less than eight years, Scentsy has generated more than $1 billion in revenue. Along with Scentsy warmers we also carry a line called Layers. This is a body care line that includes, hand soaps, body lotions, and shower care. Scentsy also branched out this September into Greeting Cards which are scented. They can be personalized, have a photo added, pretty much anything your heart desires it can do. A little bit about me: I am a stay at home mom and this is a great way to supplement your income while on mat-leave or to pursue as a full time business. A lot of people I know who are with Scentsy are doing that today. I've been with Scentsy for just over a year and am having a blast with it, as I love the product and everyone around me does too! There are great rewards for hosting, and there are two ways to host a Scentsy Party. One is at your home, I come in talk for a bit and we go through all the wonderful scents available. The other is when you take some catalogues, scent samples, and order forms and collect the orders yourself. If you work in an office building or school this is a great option if you're just too busy to host at your home. On top of the host rewards that Scentsy gives you, I also offer a bonus gift to each of my hosts! It's your choice either a plug-in warmer or mid-size warmer, just think you can keep it for yourself or give it as a gift! Please contact me if you have any questions, or are ready to host or join. This is a great time to do it with the holidays just around the corner, as this is a great gift idea for those though people who you just don't know what to get. If you host you can get a lot of it for free! I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for your interest in Scentsy! Erika
