Summer Update - Bring Back My Bar, Big Announcement, New Cancellation Policy

Hope everyone is having a great summer.  Just wanted to remind everyone that July is our Bring Back My Bar Month.  If you are finding yourself in a bind to get your $150 sells before July first, you might consider picking up the "Bring Back My Bar Sampler"  which gives you one of each of the bars for a price of $85. This sampler can be ordered during the month of June, if you would like.  All individual bars are not available to order until July 1st. You can download a flyer from the Resources section of your Workstation (located in monthly promotions).  Take a look at the bars that are returning for the month of July, listed below.  (Grapefruit Pomegranate is one of my favorites)

Also, looking ahead, watch for some big fun surprise announcements coming up sometime this next month.   Also, new catalogs will be coming out around convention time.  During the month of August, everything in the Spring/Summer catalog will be available for 10% off, with the exception of some of the big packages.  This is a great time to book parties, especially because in August we will have availability of the New Fall/Winter Catalogs, so everyone can have a sneak peak at what is around the corner for the holidays.  Ordering from the Fall/Winter catalog for Scentsy will be available on September 1st.  If you have someone who is thinking of signing up late into July, you might encourage them to wait a few days and sign up in August, so they will get both the old and new catalogs and testers. (A great time to sign up!)


If you have questions in regards to the new Scentsy Cancellation policy?  Make sure to sit in on the training that is set up on the Training Center of your workstation (you will find a link on the right side of the page).  To read the cancelation policy, go to Resources on your work station,  click on Scentsy Documents, and there at the  you will find the Scentsy Cancellation Policy.

If you are ever in a rut, take 5 and go to the training center of our work station, and do a short training.  You will be motivated, inspired and excited to light the fire.

Bridal Scentsy Shower Ideas

This question was submitted by Kendra Lewis:  

 

I am doing a bridal Scentsy Party tomorrow night. Anyone have any cute idea's? Games...gifts...anything?

 

These fun responses were shared:  (feel free to share additional ideas)

 

Have them write a "Love Story" using as many scent names as possible? As a game.

 

Are you sharing Velata too? We set out the fondue chocolates and a paintbrush and a note pad nearby it so people could guess why it was near the fun fondue. Many interesting answers developed LOL

 

You could do a "guess the scent" type game with the testers, take the lids off and have them write the name of the scent using lucky in love, love story, satin sheets , honeymoon hideaway, etc.

 

Also the bride warmer, flower girl and bridesmaid Warmers make great wedding party or shower gifts. One bride used the bride Warmers as centerpiece giveaways and travel tins at a recent wedding!

 

Use the story that has all the scents in it from last summer I believe it talked about surfer chick etc... I don't know what it was called or where to find it but that would be a cite one and have them fill in the blanks

 

Lets go on our honeymoon.....and do the Hawaii story as an ice breaker.

 

Hawaii story?

 

Yes...where you have everyone close their eyes and picture they are in Hawaii.....then they draw with their eyes closed the items you read.    

New Consultant Cancellation Policy

Just wanted to make sure everyone was aware of this new policy that will greatly affect each of our businesses.  Please take note:

"After careful consideration, discussion, and input from Scentsy Family Consultants, we have decided to update our policy regarding Consultant cancellation for inactivity.

Starting April 1, 2013, a Consultant needs 150 or more points in PRV in at least one calendar-month within a contiguous three-month period. Consultants who do not meet this activity requirement will be cancelled on the first day of the fourth month. For example, if a Consultant doesn’t achieve 150 PRV points in either April, May, or June, their account will be cancelled on July 1.

If a Consultant doesn’t reach 150 PRV points for two consecutive months, in the third month, a checkmark will appear in the “Will Cancel” column in their performance report on the Workstation until 150 PRV points are earned. The 150 PRV points can come from individual customer orders, party orders, or online orders made through the Consultant’s Personal Website (PWS).

Consultant downline loss will still occur in April, May, and June. Effective July 1, 2013, any downline loss will occur at the time of account cancellation.

An FAQ  on this policy is available on the Resources tab on the Workstation."

Looks like Scentsy is going to go back to their prior policy, that they started their company with.  This puts a little pressure on us to be actively engaged in our Scentsy business.  I guess we can't sleep anymore, being passive Scentsy consultants.  I think this new policy will benefit each of our businesses, and help us move forward.

Wishing you all a wonderful summer.

Marilyn

Way to go!  Congratulations on your great efforts in selling.   A drawing for a free fondue warmer has  been awarded Emily McNeal as our Winter Fondue Winner!

Our team has been a little sleepy with recruiting lately.  Maybe you have all taken a break along with me.  I think it is time to light the Scentsy Fire, and share it with others.

Welcome to this Awesome Scents Team Page

Wow. This year has flown by so fast. It seems that I have put my focus on some new adventures in life, which means I have had to neglect other responsibilities. I think my challenge in life is to continually try to find the proper balance in life, because I have a tendency to want to do everything, and my 24 hours in each day get filled up quickly, leaving many things put off to the next day. Do you ever feel like this? Well, I need to apologize for neglecting my Scentsy team through these last few months. I hope your lives have been good. I appreciate your patience with me. On the flip side, I am so happy to be connected to most of you on facebook and our "Awesome Scents Team" Facebook Page. I love to see post's from each of you, to check into what is happening in your life. If you are not presently linked to our team page, please do so right away, by requesting me (Marilyn Hanks Hilton) as a facebook friend, and I will send you an invite to join our team page. Many simple ideas and conversation will be shared hear. This Blog, I set up about 3 years ago, to help advertise my personal Scentsy Website. Basically, I set it up and did nothing with it. Bah humbug!. Recently, I decided I should use it as my Team blog where I can keep my newsletters, recognition, and links for helpful documents, etc. Everyday, I am trying to simplify, which in turn hopefully will be passed down to each of you, to operate your businesses in a the most simple way. So, you can have your life, and enjoy rather than be burdened with extra from Scentsy. So, welcome to this Awesome Scent Team blog. I hope you find it helpful. Please feel free to comment, ask questions, or give suggestions. Have a great day. Marilyn
