Make Your Own Scratch Off's

So I put up a link to Megan Sommer-Perfect Parties-Booking Bag Demo 2011-Talking the Talk in an earlier post, and yes this technique of stacking the hostess has worked like a charm for me. The portion of this presentation that I want to talk about are the gift bags.

I have my pretty gift bags all set up and reuse them for my parties. Inside each I have a coupon just as she suggested as an incentive to book a party. Just starting off I found that a lot of the same people are coming to my new parties along with new customers.

So after searching the wonderful Scentsy forum for new ideas I found the suggestion for scratch off tickets. Amazing! I am going to keep my pretty hostess gift bag but I think the next party I am going to change it up a bit and offer everyone a scratch off ticket who is interested in booking a party with me.

I am hoping this will create some new excitement. Ok so I found a great link to some scratch off stickers and the bonus is they have a few free templates to work with. They are even as helpful as giving step by step instructions on how to customize them.

I of course am starting with a template but now that I see the measurements my mind is racing with all kinds of possibilities. Use any incentive you wish and use a few to keep up the excitement and anticipation. Maybe have them all scratch them at once and shout out what they got? Ok, without further adieu here is the link and my examples for you.

I ordered the 1" silver circle stickers here.

1. Save template to your computer
2. Upload template at picnik (free to use)
3. Customize with fonts, pictures, colors etc.
4. Save your file
5. Open Microsoft Word and use a business card template (My template is on the left)
6. Insert your file and repeat in each box
7. Print
8. Adhere sticker

Make Your Own Scent Books

Here is a cute way to hand out your samples, promote yourself and the wickless alternative of Scentsy.

1. Open a word document for a custom label
2. Set it for 2x5 will print 5 to a sheet
3. Buy Host Join on edge
4. 1"down your information 
1. change text direction
5. 2 3/4" down for heating not eating
6. 3" down Scentsy logo
7. 4" down picture if wanted

I took it one step farther and made a second sheet so it would print on the inside cover what scent it was. Print on card stock, I used plain paper for demonstration only. You can download my template on the left.

New Scentsy "Gift Giving" Program Coming Soon

Scentsy customers and Consultants will be glad to know we are developing a new "gift giving" option to allow customers to send Scentsy products as gifts.



During last year's Spring Sprint, Consultants let us know that sometimes, when a customer would send a gift to a friend unannounced, they would find a Scentsy package they weren't expecting and wonder who sent it.



With the new gift giving order option, customers will be able to send an email to the gift recipient letting them know a gift package is on its way. Customers and Consultants will be able to choose from 20 different email templates, falling under the categories of Birthday, Special Occasion, Holiday, Care and Concern, and General Scentsy Gift.



We expect to launch the gift giving option later this fall and make it available in all Scentsy markets and languages. The print version of the gift giving order form will be downloadable from the Resources tab of the Workstation.

SCENTSY MAKES THE INC. 500 LIST

The new Inc. 500 list was published in late August, and Scentsy was listed as one of the top-ten fastest growing consumer products companies in the country—for the second year in a row!

This year, Scentsy ranked number 85 overall on the Inc. 500 and number 9 in growth among consumer products and services companies. Scentsy was also the largest company by revenue among the top 200 Inc. firms this year. And because we are a large and fast-growing company, Scentsy stands out among the companies on the list.

Businesswire.com reported that "Scentsy also ranked as the number one fastest-growing direct selling company on the 2011 list and number nine among all consumer products and services companies. Last year Scentsy was number nineteen on the Inc. 500 and the number one fastest-growing consumer products & services company."

In the article, Heidi Thompson, President of Scentsy, Inc. said, "We are pleased Scentsy is again among the fastest-growing companies in America, and also the largest company in the top 200 firms on the Inc. list. We have our Consultants and employees to thank for maintaining the focus on quality, value, and service through Scentsy’s rapid growth."

Piece By Piece Update

Scentsy's Spring/Summer 2011 Charitable Cause Warmer, Piece by Piece, has accomplished what it set out to do--and then some!

As you know, Scentsy donated 100% of the net proceeds from the sale of this warmer directly to Autism Speaks™, an international organization which funds global research, spreads awareness, and provides hope to families whose children receive this complex diagnosis. Our ultimate goal was to raise $500,000 for Autism Speaks, and thanks to your outstanding efforts, Scentsy was able to donate a total of $500,696 (USD) and $16,738 (CAD) to the nonprofit organization.

In addition to this donation--which was generated entirely by sales of Piece by Piece--Scentsy is donating all proceeds generated by the sale of the 2011 Convention Commemorative Warmer to Autism Speaks. With this added gift, we will have significantly surpassed our original goal.

We are exceptionally grateful for each of our Consultants and customers who supported this important cause. And we appreciate everyone who wrote in to tell us how this charitable contribution has affected you and your family and friends.
