Scentsy Scentsational Start

Launching a Scentsy business can be kind of a crazy experience. I mean, you just started your own business! You are finally your own boss! But that coin has two sides - not only are you your own boss, but now it all depends on you! That thought can be very scary. 

Okay, pause, before you get sweaty palms, sit - let’s break it down.

You Can Do It

First, seriously you got this. Really, I don’t doubt you can rock this. Know this, 1 great party or 2 good parties and you’ve paid off your startup costs. How cool is that? Everything after that is icing on the cake!

Seriously, anyone that can turn on a Scentsy Warmer is capable of earning back the $99 you paid to launch your new biz. 🙂 It’s not rocket science it’s largely persistence and determination. We’ve been doing this since 2008 and we've seen dozens if not hundreds of people join Scentsy - some rock - others roll. The greatest difference between them is whether or not they stick with it. It’s really all in your hands.

Start Strong

If you’re considering joining Scentsy and becoming a Scentsy Consultant, there are some amazing incentives that can ONLY be earned in your first 15 or 70 days as a Scentsy Consultant. Once those days pass they’re gone, you can’t earn them any more.

Shooting Star Award

One of the incentives is called the Shooting Star Award. Basically you sell 500 in PRV (approx. $500 USD) in your first 15 days.  You are then eligible to purchase a kit of Scentsy products at an amazing price. 

This helps you have products to be able to demo at a party, fair, show, Facebook party, or however you want to use them! And that’s great, but in my opinion there is a far better incentive to focus on to really get your Scentsy business off to an awesome start.

Scentsational Start Program

Earning the Shooting Star Award puts you on a good path to earn the Scentsational Start Awards too.  You didn’t ask but I’ll tell you - the single greatest way to launch your business is to take advantage of the Scentsational Start Program. Why?

Scentsy has shared the results of research they’ve done that indicates that those who earn Scentsational Start go on to become Directors. Not only that but earning Scentsational Start gives you product credit, an exclusive warmer, recognition at Scentsy Family Reunion, oh, and did I mention product credit?!

Level 1 starts with $50 in product credit and that goes up to $225 at Level 3, how awesome is that!?

Scentsational Start Award 101

Three Levels to Earn

There are three levels of Scentsational Start and each level can be earned in two different ways. One way is entirely through sales and the other is a combo of sales and recruiting. I’d encourage you to go with the combo just because that puts you in a great position to grow your team and helps you develop habits that give you a foundation for long-term success. After all, you’ve got your sights set on earning a free trip right?! Life as a Scentsy Consultant has taken us to places like Greece, New York, the Dominican Republic, Cancun, Nashville, and more - for free. I have yet to meet someone who hates free travel. 🙂

Level 1

Now, let’s take a quick walk through it. The chart above is pretty self-explanatory but let me add some details. First, notice that if you earn Scentsational Start Level 1 through sales you have also earned the Shooting Star Kit AND promoted to Certified Consultant AND entirely paid off your startup costs AND earned an automatic, permanent pay raise (you go from earning 20% to 25% on your sales). Not bad! Not bad a’tall! 😉

Level 2

Now let’s look at Scentsational Start Level 2. If you earn Level 2 (either method - the sales or the combo) you’ve done all the same things as Level 1 but if you earn it through the combo method (in 1 month) you’ve double promoted to a Lead Consultant and now tap into 3 of the 10 ways you can get paid as a Scentsy Consultant! In addition to the awesome start you have and the glorious commission check that awaits you, you’ll also be awarded $125 in FREE product credit! That’s more than double the amount awarded for Level 1!

Level 3

Now, Scentsational Start Level 3. This is by far the Super Supremest way to launch your new Scentsy business! To earn this level you’ve got 70 days to sell 6,000 in PRV - that’s a lot, not undoable but again I’m going to steer you towards the combo method - 3,000 in PRV and 2 Active Consultants. Active means that your new teammates need to sell 200 in PRV (approx. $200 USD) in your first 70 days. Both methods are great but if you earn it with the combo method you are a Star Consultant! That means you’ve moved from Essential to Certified to Lead and finally Star and you’re tapping into 4 of the 10 ways you can make money as a Scentsy Consultant! And, bonus - you’ve just earned $225 in product credit!

So, it is a lot of work but it’s by no means out of reach.  If you’re going to launch your biz might as well go big or go home.  This helps you really get set up to promote to Director AND you get FREE product credit!

3 Vision Challenges Scentsy Leaders Face

The Three Vision Challenges Direct Selling Leaders Face

Becoming a Leader as a Scentsy Consultant can be intimidating. We’ve even had dozens of Consultants on our team that avoid being a leader! They contrast their perception of what it means to be leader with their own perceived weaknesses and insecurities and get overwhelmed with the gap they see between the two. I’m not going to say it’s easy or that these fears aren’t real but in my experience too many of us shrink in the face of our own, very real potential. In reality, none of us really know what we’re doing. Everybody who is a leader was once not a leader. Every current leaders had a first time being a leader. Our own experience and a willingness to tackle uncertainty goes a long way! A lot of times you just have to fake it ’til you make it! Trust in your own experience, jump in, keep working your business, realize you don’t have to know everything and in most cases, you’ll do awesome.

That said as leaders we want to help our team grow their own Scentsy businesses and striking a balance between working our own business and helping our teams can become a confusing exercise with mixed results. We want to help but aren’t sure what our teams need, what is most helpful, or if they even want our help. We’ve spent hours and hours helping, mentoring, training,  and coaching Scentsy Consultants on our team grow their own business with at best, mixed results. This leads to what we’ve determined is the most universal challenge we think all leaders face, ourselves included, is a matter of vision. These three issues with Vision influence how we spend our time as leaders and heavily impact our team growth.

These three Vision problems are:

  1. We have no positive vision of the new Consultants that join our team.
  2. We have too much vision for the new Consultant that join our team.
  3. We have no positive vision of ourselves.

So, the first one - having no positive vision of our new Consultants. This is pretty self-explanatory but more importantly how does someone get to that point? How do we get to a point where we have not positive vision of our new Consultants potential? There may be people that are just naturally pessimistic and don’t see other’s potential BUT in my experience our natural tendency is to see others in a better light than ourselves. And THAT, ironically, is how we get ourselves get to a point where we don’t see any hope for our new Consultants.

You see, imagine you’re a new leader wanting to help your team achieve their goals so you spend hours training, attending launch parties, explaining the comp plan, and even help them overcome their fears and get that first recruit. They promote to Lead. You have hope for their future and your own as you see your new Lead Consultant walking across the stage as a Director! A couple of phone calls go by and your new Lead is having a tough time completing goals, she’s not hitting her numbers, and her new recruit isn’t doing much. You paint the picture you see of her but it falls on deaf ears, nothing changes and other things begin to take precedence for your Lead Consultant. Two months go by and your unanswered phone messages, PM’s, and texts warning her that she is on the termination list do nothing and she’s gone.

Well, gee, thanks for the depressing story right?! But that’s how we get there. We get burned again, and again, and again. We invest time and energy and become emotionally attached to people and the amazing future we know they can achieve. So after watching that potential crumble with dozens of new Consultants after spending so much energy on them, we get deflated. The reality of direct sales is that one-third of our teams are just starting their biz, another one-third is working it, and the last one-third are on their way out.

How do we address this?

So, I’ve typed this sentence a dozen times but there really is no way to say it without sounding harsh but we have to find a way to provide some custom guidance, point them in the right direction and let them go and do it on their own. It's hard, but avoid the well-intentioned tendency to push or pull your new Consultants to success. You will be able to drag some to promotions but when you ask them to step up as leaders they won't know what that means or they'll think they need to do what you did and get frustrated trying to pull their teams to success. Instead of pushing or pulling, we focus on partnering. We increase our availability and mentoring to match their level of achievement. Sounds harsh but the more we push and pull the less they have to tap into their own creativity and feel the drive to do anything to make it work. No amount of mentoring or coaching can match the power of their own motivation.

Now the second one, the opposite of the first, is having too much vision for our new Consultants. Why is this a challenge? Well, because we do what I explained above - we spend inordinate amounts of time, energy, and emotional investment and set ourselves up for frustration as we see Consultants CHOOSE to let their Scentsy business die.

How do we address this?

Well, as odd it may seem the answer here is the same as the answer to the first - find a balanced approach to provide your new Consultants what they need. I’ll be honest though, it’s still a bummer watching people with so much potential not make it work. But, but that’s their choice and I respect that and wish them the best.

Finally, the one Vision issue we don’t think we have but is the greatest threat to our business - having no positive vision of ourselves. This Vision issue is what keeps so many Consultants from even being a Leader! How do we get to where we don’t have a positive vision of ourselves? Well, nobody knows us better than ourselves. We minimize or even forget our successes and exaggerate our failures. We think we can trust ourselves to be objective about our success rate when in reality we are own worst critics. No one is harder on us than ourselves as we spend hours comparing ourselves to others which only magnifies our weaknesses. All the while blind to the fact that they are doing the same as they look at us.

How do we address this?

Winston Churchill is quoted as saying - “Success is going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm”. Success is not the absence of failure. My favorite BBQ sauce is Heinz 57 - it took 57 attempts to find the perfect recipe to find the awesomest BBQ sauce ever so hey, we can screw up from time to time. Secondly, stop comparing. Accept you screwed up, fix it, don’t do it again, and move on. Give yourself a break. Will Rogers once said that “Good judgment comes from experience and a lot of that comes from bad judgment”. If nothing else, you’ve probably developed phenomenal judgment!

The Focus Map to Scentsy Success

The Focus Map to Scentsy Success

In a clock-in, clock-out world there are things like career paths or management training programs that provide talented, high-potential individuals diverse experiences designed to help them progress towards a particular target job. At the end of the experience, assuming the individual does well, they gain the position they were targeting from the beginning. Knowing what the path ahead of us looks like allows us to focus on the now while still anticipating and preparing for what comes next.

LAUNCH YOUR SCENTSY BUSINESS and HAVE YOUR OWN WEBSITE IN JUST 5 MINUTES!!

In order to get the same kind of clear path as a Scentsy Consultant, the obvious place to start is with the Scentsy Compensation Plan. The Comp Plan tells us rank is next, how we are paid at the next rank, and what key metrics we need to hit in order to achieve that rank. And that's actually really great - knowing exactly what I need to do to make more money AND the fact that it is the same path for everyone - is awesome. But beyond that baseline info, we have a lot of Consultants wondering where their focus should be at each rank in order to make the most of their current rank AND how to promote to the next. So based on our own experience, we put together the below information to give our amazing team of Scentsy Consultants tips on where to focus at each rank.

Perfect your customer loyalty programs to reduce the time and money you spend getting PRV. Remember if 120 people spend $100 2X/year, you have 2k PRV every month. Start some mentoring but avoid the temptation to hand hold to ensure someone else's success, don’t create an entitled culture. Don’t let yourself get overwhelmed with the demands of a growing team and their questions. Avoid pushing and pulling your team to success - rather partner with them. Reward results. If effort isn’t getting results than work on training to improve results.Director

Can I Make Money as a Scentsy Consultant?

Make Money as a Scentsy Consultant

The other day as I was at Costco filling up my car with gasoline. While I filled up, I overheard a conversation the woman in front of me was having on her phone. She was telling the person on the other end that their mutual friend was making a huge mistake; she was signing up for one of those "awful pyramid schemes”.

Is Scentsy A Pyramid Scheme?

She continued her conversation saying things like:

Can You Really Make Money?

So, as I filled up the car with gas, paid for with the credit card our Scentsy Consultant business pays off every month. 🙂 *Scentsy income disclosure.* 

Direct Selling Perception

I couldn’t believe just how much hatred this woman had for direct selling. Honestly, I didn’t think there were still people in the world that held that perception of direct selling. I'm not naive enough to think that everyone loves direct selling, but I was surprised at just how belligerent she was towards it. But I like to think that this woman is really just a victim of misinformation. She has never had the opportunity to actually get to know people working direct sales, and see their success.

Real Success

The reality is that 20 million people are involved in the $36.12 billion direct selling industry.  People involved in direct selling have a higher percentage of annual income over $50,000 when compared to all Americans. (58% vs. 50%)

Contrary to opinion, direct sellers also have a higher level of average education than the average American:  52% of are college graduates compared to 28% and 99% have high school diplomas compared to 85%.

Scentsy Consultant workingBenefits of Direct Sales

Now, let’s talk about the rewards of being a Scentsy Consultant or direct seller. First, as in any business to look exclusively at the money would be limiting and not indicative of the real reasons people choose direct selling.

For example, when I applied for corporate jobs I always asked about things like healthcare, 401k, paid time off, culture, and work-life balance.  All of these were factors when I considered the job. Salary is just one thing to consider. Beyond income, research indicates that individuals enjoy the fringe benefits like the flexibility of being their own bosses.  We get to set our own hours and schedule, as well as ever having to ask for time off!

Income from Sales

When you talk about income as a Scentsy Consultant (or any direct sales) you have to remember that first, direct selling is, well, still selling. We make a commission from the sales we make.  As much as we talk about the other activities we spend the majority of our time doing like mentoring and recruiting, we still sell.  In Scentsy, we have to sell a certain amount to get paid on the production of our team.

Secondly, Scentsy Consultants are paid monthly and every month is different. We don't receive a set salary, or any guaranteed amount.  For instance, some months - like October and November - are huge sales months with consumers gearing up for the holidays.  Those months, the money you make as a Scentsy Consultant will more likely be higher than other months.  Commissions income is dependent on your own sales, so you do have control over your paycheck. You can work to make the amount you want, or to make consistent checks, but it will most likely vary naturally.

Thirdly, there is a large percentage of Consultants who join a direct selling company to buy their favorite products at a discount, NOT to make a living off it. And since individuals are paid based on their work and level of effort and time dedicated to their business, those who are working it like a part-time job earn a part-time income. It's important to remember that is exactly what they want out of it. 

Direct Sales Average Income

The first data I found went back to 2011 when Amy Robinson, a spokesperson for the Direct Selling Association, said that the median annual income for direct sales consultants in 2011 was $2,400. As I dug further I found that research done by Harris Poll in 2014 provided some more up to date information. According to the research -

Doing some simple math, that means that 2.4 million direct sellers earned more than $50,000 based on 2014 figures. The article points out that beats the national average salary for men and women.  It also is more than the national median annual salary for all Americans working a 40-hour workweek as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Dec. 2013.

Now, that’s only 15% of those involved in direct selling, but that’s also about the percentage of consultants actually working their business. The research indicates that 70% of Consultants spend less than 15 hours/week on their business. An important note to add here is that those 15% earning that $50,000 and up are doing it how, when, and where they want to.

Can I make money with Scentsy?

In summary, can you make money in direct selling?

The answer is of course, yes. The most important things to remember are;

When you talk about income in direct selling you have to start with a few key understanding that direct selling is, well, selling. So individuals are paid based on their work and level of effort and time dedicated to their business and every month is different as some months - like October and November - are huge sales months with consumers gearing up for the holidays. Secondly, there is a large percentage of Consultants that join a direct selling company to buy their favorite products at a discount, NOT to make a living off it.

Extra Income

Direct Selling, as an example being a Scentsy Consultant, can provide a good side income.  It can help cover bills, pay off debt, and prepare for retirement. It can also be much more than and support a crazy family of 7 like mine! It just simply depends on your work ethic and what you value.

join scentsyFlexible Side Hustle 

If benefits like a flexible schedule, more time with family, being your own boss, and setting your own hours are appealing to you, then you would be an awesome Scentsy consultant.  As long as you are comfortable as an entrepreneur with risk and have a good work ethic, then it sounds like it’s a great fit for you. If not, and you prefer punching in and out for a guaranteed paycheck, then this might not be your ideal way to make money.

5 Things Every Sponsor Wants to Tell Their Team

Top 5 Obstacles Every Consultant Must Conquer

In the over 9 years I've been a Scentsy Consultant I've recruited over 100 amazing people to join me on this crazy, fun thing I call my Scentsy business. I'm excited and eager for every single one to really take advantage of all the great benefits of making a living as a Scentsy Consultant - flexible schedule, work where & when I want, free travel, etc - and so I jump in and try to do everything I can to help them get their new biz off the ground.

Unfortunately, it doesn't always happen. And not for the reasons you might think.

I've never seen a Consultant close the doors of their business because they didn't know what to do or how to do it. Never. 

Below are the top 5 obstacles I've seen trip up Consultants leading them to not achieve the success they envisioned when they enrolled.

YOU ARE MORE AWESOME THAN YOU THINK 

I've noticed that many new Consultants feel inadequate or have a burdening self-doubt. I just want to say "You are enough. You are more than just enough. You are awesome!" Too often new Consultants bring in heavy negative baggage they’ve acquired from life that weighs them down under a belief they are not smart enough, tall enough, pretty enough, rich enough - whatever it might be - to do well as a Scentsy Consultant. You do not need to be anything more, or anything different than what you are.

Actually, once you allow yourself to tap into your OWN creativity, your OWN uniqueness and free yourself to be your type of Consultant - THEN you will find success. You, all by yourself, can figure out how to win at being a Scentsy Consultant. You have what it takes in spades to be successful. Don’t let yourself give in to the excuse that you - and anything about who you are or your unique situation and circumstances - disqualify you from success. Rather, recognize that your unique strengths, perspective, and personality are the very things that will help you be successful. Stop doubting yourself, or beating yourself up over past or current mistakes and engage your own strengths and you will be surprised just how awesome you are. Sounds cliche I know, but I've seen it over and over and over again.

FEAR

This happens with almost every single new Consultant. It is the number one reason, in my experience, that so many new Consultants give up. This quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson is so true -

Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world.

Fear of failure is the most prevalent and debilitating. They say to themselves, "I don’t want to be the person that tried Scentsy and failed. If I get excited and go out and have parties, and tell everyone that I am a Scentsy consultant, talk about the business on Facebook, maybe even grow a team, and then it doesn’t work out I’m going to look like a schlumpf. All my friends will see me as a failure, I’ll feel like a failure, and they’ll tease me about that one time I tried to chase my goals as a Scentsy Consultant." I see this with SO many new Consultants. After doing this for over 9 years this is easy to recognize but the last thing new Consultants want to admit is preventing their success.

I've found the best way to address fear is to open about it. Every time I coach my team and we're making goals and tactics to achieve their goals, we always talk about any fears or skill gaps that would prevent them from doing the tactics we discussed. It is impossible to be successful as a Scentsy Consultant without overcoming fear. Nelson Mandela once said -

“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.”

JUST DO IT

NOTHING can replace doing it. I’ve had hundreds of goal-making sessions, spent hours training, coaching and even roleplaying everything from how to enter parties in the workstation to how to book parties, recruit a new team member, and take care of customers. I’ve bent over backwards to make sure my team KNEW how to do everything and felt motivated to do everything they needed to do to win. But, all too often, regardless of how much they knew how to do what they needed to do - they still didn’t do it. Consultants with little or no training have awesome parties, and recruit amazing new Consultants. They just simply do it. They host parties, they talk to people about joining Scentsy, they message people about their orders, they just do it. Untrained, untouched, imperfect, yet getting it done. No amount of training or coaching will ever replace an attitude focused on simply doing it. Sometimes we let ourselves get so focused on preparation and practicing that we become paralyzed and fail to actually just go and do it.

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
Dale Carnegie

If you're too worried and focused on preparing and practicing then your focus is driven by fear and you doubt yourself and your training at the first sign of training. The sooner you jump into improvement by practice you are focused on finding your way to success; getting better with each misstep, tailoring your approach to fit you and ultimately finding your own, unique, very YOU type of way of operating. That's when you'll hit your stride and find you're no longer forcing yourself to invite people to buy, host, or join.

MAKE GOALS

In soccer you need goals to win. Literally, if there were no goals no-one would ever win. It’s true with Scentsy as well, if you have no goals you won’t ever achieve them. And how could you? You have no measurement of success, you have no direction, no target. Say out loud what you want from your Scentsy business and write it down. Tell someone, anyone that will be an accountability partner for you, what your goal is - whether it's your Scentsy sponsor (who would love to have that convo with you!) your spouse, friend, parent, sibling, whoever, and then get to work.

Setting Goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible. 
Tony Robbins

If you want Scentsy to pay for a date night at least once a month, or cover a phone bill, the utilities, car, or even the mortgage - say it and write it down. Your Scentsy business can do any of these, and all of these!, but like anything, it takes work and working without a goal is like driving down the freeway just hoping you can correctly guess the exit that will take you to your destination. Pick your destination first (make goals) and then find a map (what you'll do to achieve your goal) to get you there.

BE PERSISTENT

For some reason, we want to believe that any setback is an indication that the whole thing is flawed. Too often if a new Consultant invites someone to have a party, join their team, do a fundraiser, or some other Scentsy-related activity and that person responds negatively they get deflated and give up. If you ask someone to host a party and they say no thanks. Move on. How many people did you date before you found the right one? There’s a million shows on TV yet we ignore the large majority of them and have our own few favorites. They simply don’t interest us. Scentsy isn’t for everyone, it has NOTHING to do with you and everything to do with them. It’s their choice, not yours. Allow people to be different than you and not be interested in buying, or joining WITHOUT taking it personally. A “No” is not a “You suck, I hate you”. It is what it is, someone indicating they are not interested, nothing more.

Giving up on your goals is like slashing your other three tires because you got one flat.

When you feel like you've hit a setback, don't surrender your goals so easily. Stop blaming yourself, you didn't royally screwup, give yourself the benefit of the doubt and try again...and again, and again. You can either keep trying with the aim of getting better as you go on your path to success OR consider everything that doesn't go as planned, as further evidence that becoming a Scentsy Consultant wasn't a good idea. So keep on keepin' on and giving it the ol' college try and I have no reason to believe you won't get better and find a way to make it work.
