If you are considering starting your own Scentsy business or are currently a Direct Sales consultant this is for you. Whether you are having a hard time growing your team, or even just catching the vision of why you should recruit, hopefully this will help!
When I say "recruit", I am referring to the intentional actions of growing your team, but of course that implies that you will mentor and help them have success along the way.
I will show you why you should grow a team, the income potential from maximizing the compensation plan to take advantage of earning Leadership Bonuses, and tools for recruiting, along with some challenges to put it all in practice.
The same reason that you decided to join is the reason you should recruit and grow a team! Most likely you had some goal in mind for your business, and that helped you sign up. Your efforts toward those goals are multiplied and made possible only by recruiting and growing a team.
Here are a handful of reasons someone might join, and how recruiting is the key to attaining those purposes:
CYCLE: recruit and help them grow, continually recruiting to grow and expand (always better than a sale! Lead with the join opportunity). Grow wide (increase your own personal recruits) and help them grow deep (help them all recruit). I missed out on many downline bonuses because they promoted Directors before I could tap into that bonus by being SD or SSD, but growth and momentum is always good! Help THEM be as successful as they can...even if you miss out on their bonus… and continue to grow so you can capture that downline bonus as soon as you can. It’s a LONG game mentality.
GOAL = SSD just means that you find four people who want to get to Director and you help them get there!
Make sure your goal is to always be paid at title. (You’ll never miss a paycheck, you’ll never miss a promotion and get tons of points for incentives!) What does it take to be Paid At Title (PAT)? There are three requirements each month to be PAT. If you have promoted to a higher rank but don't have all of the requirements that month to be paid at that rank, you will be paid at the level you achieve for that month. There aren't any penalties for not being paid at title, you just only earn the leadership bonuses based on your current rank for that month.
This is Scentsy's Income Disclosure Statement showing maximum annual pay for each Scentsy rank. You can see the vast difference in pay as you climb the ranks, with the huge jump in max annual commission at SuperStar Director. (This is WHY you promote and aim for SSD!!)
*I am required by the government to post this Scentsy Income Disclosure Statement stating that results vary, and nothing is guarantee of income. Having said that, these are my real income graphs so it really is possible if you work hard!
This chart below is MY actual income graph showing the breakdown of where my paycheck comes from: income from personal sales vs. downline leadership bonus pay. My graph in particular is from being paid as Escential Consultant through all of the ranks up to Star Director.
Imagine your life if it were everything you dream of! What is keeping you from that dream? What is keeping you from recruiting?
Recruiting is about MINDSET, not even necessarily the SKILLS. If you WANT it badly enough, you’ll find a way to make it happen! YOU have your own unique personality, which means your own unique way of recruiting! If you use someone else's way, it will get you started, but you have to make it yours to be effective and non-spammy! That comes from passion and practice!
Put on your recruiting glasses! You see what you look for. When I DECIDED to strive to earn Annual Mentor, my whole business completely changed. When I joined in 2008 and didn't really make much progress in growing my team until I started my recruiting focus in 2012. I was determined to grow my team, and I earned Annual Mentor in 2012!
I earned the Annual Mentor Award again in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and missed 2017 by my last recruit to put in 30 PRV… but I earned it again in 2018. Choosing to focus on growing my team and recruiting changed my business in every way. I also earned my first incentive trip in 2012 to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and haven't missed earning a single incentive trip since then!
Once you decide that you WILL grow, you will find and create the best ways for you to recruit. Whatever you do, it must be authentic and genuine so it doesn't feel spammy.
Recruiting can be a natural, generous way to offer something amazing that you have found. Don't decide for them; our job is to invite and offer the opportunity to join you, then let them decide.
Here are my 2 TOP SECRETS to how I do it! When I started using these two methods, my recruiting completely changed and was way more effective. These are the keys; you have to apply them in the scenarios you choose.
“You are so organized and would be so great at running a business! I can see you really being so successful as a business owner, you would be perfect at this! I will be here to help you the whole way, we can do it together; it’ll be so fun! Have you ever thought about starting a business?”
Scenario role play practice: (which approach are you going to use, what are you going to say?)
It was Scentsy Convention 2009 in Salt Lake City and I had been a consultant for about 18 months. My rank at the time was a Lead, and at that even they were presenting big awards and even giving away cars on stage. This got me wondering about my potential do be successful with the business too, and I asked my husband, “Do you think this will ever be me?”. My reason for joining was to pay off grad school student loans and have a little money for extras. However, I didn't have the vision or belief that I really could make it work much bigger than just the helpful little income I was making at the time.
I had no idea that I would go on to earn my own awards, trips, and even support my family with our Scentsy income after my husband was laid off from his job. I couldn't see it then, but it really would be me... and it can be you too!
DREAM BIG! You CAN do it! Don’t be afraid of success, don’t be afraid of failure, don’t be afraid to share this awesome opportunity! You love Scentsy enough to be a consultant and make that investment and commitment to build your Scentsy business, so don’t keep it to yourself! Share and let them decide if the time is right to join. Our job is simply to extend the offer!
What are you going to do differently? What’s your plan? Take-away or ahas?
WRITE down your own Direct and Indirect Approaches and practice. Practice with your family, your neighbors, your dog, your team.

I love home parties and think they are a great way to run your business, but there are many ways to sell Scentsy in addition to home parties.
Have you ever been interested in starting a Scentsy business (or other Direct Sales business), but found yourself wondering if you had to have home parties to make it work? If so, here's an article just for you!
I have compiled a list of 10 ways to grow your Scentsy business without having to host tons of home parties... or bug your family and friends.
These are just a few ideas, but of course there are many ways to run your Scentsy business. (Just make sure you stay in compliance and avoid things like selling on eBay.)
Realtors - you can work with them home staging, as well as new homebuyer gift baskets. We can bundle their purchases to get them the best deal. They will most likely be buying a bunch at once, so you can really help make the most of the bundles for them. Enter the items they want as a party order to give them the host rewards and shipping discount.
Make sure you label the products with your consultant information, so the homebuyer can come back to you to buy more Scentsy.
Another spin off to this approach is to work with a housing or apartment complex. See if they will allow you to leave a warmer in the office with your info, a ballot box to draw for a prize, or even to add a flyer or samples to a new tenant bag.
Vendor events are perfect for networking and getting outside of your current circle. Make sure you don’t just use it as a way to sell Scentsy, but also look for new team members.
They are also a great way to schedule other party bookings so you get multiple benefits from the event!
Corporate gifting includes working with business owners for their gift giving or incentives. Find professionals like orthodontists who give gifts to referring dentists, or companies who give work anniversary gifts, holidays, business giveaways and incentives, etc.
This is a fun one. Bring the Scentsy party to them! Lunch work parties are a simple party setup you bring at lunch in the break room.
Nobody has to go anywhere or clean their house, and it's a fun way to spend the lunch hour.
Fundraisers are a super way for any organization to make money for their cause. Some ideas of where to look for fundraiser groups are sports teams, schools, choirs, pet rescues, dance teams, etc.
Online is a great way to expand your business. This includes creating a blog, finding bloggers to do a product review for you, or making videos for a YouTube channel.
It can also include social media efforts, with things like creating a following on Instagram, sharing to a Facebook page, creating a private Facebook VIP group, or even hosting facebook parties online.
Referrals are such a great way to leverage your happy customers. They love you and will introduce you to their friends as well. Make sure to ask your current customers for referrals, sometimes they won't even think to share.
Another great source of referrals is to have customers post pictures of their new products on social media and tag you. That way their friends can see their personal recommendation and decide they need it too!
Good customer care and follow up will make a big impact in your business. Taking good care of current customers allows you to keep the customers you have. That way you don’t have to find as many new ones. Make it easy for them to continue to buy from you!
Basket parties are basically a catalog party, with a basket of samples or product testers. You can book local basket party hosts, and also mail them away if you choose.
Many consultants have multiple sets of simple basket parties circulating all the time to keep sales coming in. It also helps you expand your network and find new customers and hosts.
Recruit! Build your team! This one is kind of cheating, because it's technically not a way to sell Scentsy. It is, however, a great way to make more money with your business. Scentsy offers leadership bonuses that can greatly increase your paychecks as you lead and grow your team.
You can’t stop selling and building your team, but recruiting and leading your team will multiply your efforts. You couldn’t possibly sell nearly as much as you would need to make a full-time income from your business. Leverage the leadership component and find the joy in leading your team to success along with you!

Still hesitating? Well, that's understandable. Starting your own business can be intimidating. It kind of reminds of jumping off the high diving board at my local pool when I was growing up. It looks SUPER, CRAZY scary. Especially as you're climbing up the stairs to the top. It feels freakishly high. And then you get to the top and, if you're like me, you don't really dive off it, you just kind of step over the edge and let yourself fall straight in. (I save my flips and twirls for the Olympics 🙂 And then after that, you're like, let's do that again! And with Scentsy it is very, very easy to pay off your startup costs in one month which means anything after that is icing on the cake! Sell just $500 PRV in your first month and you've more than covered your startup costs.
Think you've got what it takes? Become a Scentsy Consultant!
