How to Sell Scentsy at a Country Show or Why You Should Lay Down in a Field of Cows

My Scenty Website

This weekend, I packed my car and drove down to The New Forest Spring Show to sell my Scentsy wares. Doing big shows can be really daunting so luckily my fellow friend and Director in Southampton was able to put me up for a couple of nights and we did the show together.



It was a REALLY early morning! We split all sales, all customers and bring stock and just replace for whoever's stock sold more. It's a totally 50/50 split and it works very well and the company is invaluable. I find that as we get going talking to people, they really enjoy joining in with the banter. It becomes a fun experience for everyone and we aim to have a laugh.

And when it's been a long day and you're driving out of the New Forest, you find a field full of cows. So of course, I had to try that trick my husband has told me about a million times. He says if you lie down in a field with cows, they will all come over and stand around sniffing you. He was right!



So another fun weekend, with a friend I never would have met without Scentsy and sharing some lovely fragrances with brand new people. How is this not the best job in the entire world?!

Wax Wax Baby, or How I Gave up Candle Melts

I gotta admit that I was a product junkie going back a long time. I'd done the candles, and the tealights with the melts and I'd done the oils with the tealights and the plug-in air fresheners and the aerosol air fresheners and the weird battery operated scented shades smuggled from the USA. I'd tried all the scented home fragrancing options because none of them gave me exactly what I wanted.

But Scentsy... oh Scentsy.



Scentsy bars come in these delicious smelling bars formed of 8 cubes. All you do is break off a cube of wax, a bit like breaking off a square of Dairy Milk and throw it into the Scentsy warmer.



That one itty bitty cube of wax lasts for ages, the smell is stronger, the scent is more true because you aren't burning off the top notes of the fragrance. I love candles and how they look, but if you are going for fragrance, you gotta try the Scentsy wax. They are delicious. Over 80 scents to choose from, what is your favourite?
