Build on a Budget

The saying goes “you have to spend money, to make money”, but nobody ever said you have to break the bank!

We all know that summer means higher gas prices, souvenirs on vacation, waterparks, and lots of other things we spend our money on other than growing our Scentsy business.  However, with a little inspiration and forethought, we can grow our business with out having to cut the fun out of summer.  

Start with what you already have!

Keep it simple, remember that we are in the relationship business, treat your customers well and they will keep coming back to you.  If you provide outstanding customer service, most of your customers will be more than willing to refer you to someone else.  So often we simply forget to ask for the referral.  So provide remember to provide your customers with great service and ask them “Who do you know who...”

Utilize Natural Opportunities

Use your daily routine as part of your summer sales campaign.  When watching the kids Little League Game, speak with who is in charge about hosting a fundraiser for them.  

Bring samples in for the staff in the dentists office and ask if they would host a party.  

If you love Scentsy as much as we do, your enthusiasm and excitement will show through and people will want to be a part of it!  

Social Networking

Facebook, Twitter, or any social networking site is a great way to get free advertising and promote your business.  

You can also network the old fashioned way - hold an open house and invite your neighbors and friends.  Set up the sprinkler and let the kids enjoy the cool water, while your guest enjoy some sweet summer scents!  What a great way to keep the kids occupied now that they are out of school!  

The “Gift of Gab”

Talking, selling, prospecting – all of these skills are learned by repetition, consistency, and trial and error.   The more people you talk to about Scentsy, the more Customers, Hostesses, and Consultants you will have.  You can not sit at home and grow a successful  business  – so GET OUT AND START TALKING!

Increase Your Recruiting Success

 

Looking to grow your team this summer?  Here are a few tips to help you recruit more team members and position you for greater growth this Fall/Winter.

 

  1. One of the biggest mistakes that everyone makes when recruiting is to look for that one perfect recruit.  If you do that you will pass up 10 others who would be good for your team.
  2. Speak to everyone about the Scentsy opportunity, but don’t “try” to recruit everyone. Just have a natural conversation about your Scentsy story and how it has meet your needs.
  3. Don’t wait for someone to approach you about the opportunity.  Most people will not ask you.
  4. Let the people you know who have the right qualities to succeed, why you think they would benefit from their own Scentsy business.  Don’t be fake, but be sure to compliment!  Listen to their needs and show how Scentsy can fill them. For instance, if someone needs extra income and wants a job, don't tell her about the cruises or other prizes. They won’t listen to you if you don’t respond with the information they need to know.
  5. Don’t just recruit at parties.  You can recruit at the grocery store, laundromat, or your son or daughter’s    T-Ball game.  Always be listening for recruiting opportunities!
  6. Listen to the person who loves everything, can't afford much, is looking for a job, bored, and/or wanting something to do because their children are grown or they want to stay home with their children. Please don't overlook people who already have a great job- for these are the people who want to work and make something of their lives.
