Guess what? I've been a Scentsy Consultant for more than month now.
Here are some things I've learned so far:
1. Big Brother loves you.
"My blog was up for less than a week before my Super Star Director called and asked me to register it. I panicked pretty bad before I figured out that everyone was just trying to help me. Turns out Scentsy has a pretty good sense of humor. Don't be scared Scentsy. It's okay to laugh at yourself a little bit. I promise that your product quality won't dip because I may or may not have referred to Orville's dance moves as 'Dad-ish'. Try to remember that I'm married to guy with even sweeter 'Dad' moves than Orville. I find it very charming."
2. You smell like your product.
Guess what happens when you use Scentsy? Everything smells good. I know. Shocker. The other day I was in Wal-Mart and the lady in front of me turned around and told me, "Sorry if this sounds weird, but you smell amazing. Is that a perfume or a lotion?" "Neither." I told her. It was Washer Wiffs.
3. You can't shut up.
Seriously, you know how consultants talk about their products all the time, and you're annoyed because you really don't care about how your house smells when you're trying to eat lunch or throw in a load of laundry? Well, consider this. That laundry detergent you're using is actually more expensive than Scentsy Laundry Liquid. You should try some of these Washer Wiffs while you're at it. Seriously, Jet, Set, Go is the best smell of all time. Gain doesn't even come close... Oh crap. Sorry. What were we talking about?
4. You lose your 'embarassed to be direct-selling' complex pretty quickly.
The first week I joined Scentsy I didn't tell anyone. Now everyone knows. My neighbors, the FedEx delivery guy, everyone who has been or ever will be my facebook friend, and even a couple of homeless guys. When I first joined I was all like, "I'm never going to be one of those nut-jobs who has the Scentsy sticker in the window and wears a sparkly Scentsy shirt to PTO". Now, I'm all like, "I wonder how much it would cost to shrink wrap my car?"
5. It's still fun.
No, the excitement hasn't worn off. No, I don't regret joining. Yes, Scentsy really does smell as good as I'm saying. Smell my shirt. Come over to my house. Try these testers GOSH DANG IT. Yes, it's fun to party with your team. YES I DRANK THE PURPLE KOOL-AID!
6. I HATE SCENTSY WORKSTATION!
OKAY, IT'S NOT TOO BAD ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT. YES I SEE THAT. OKAY I'M GETTING IT. YES I SEE THAT BUtton... Hey, look what I learned here. I didn't know you could access all of this online. See what happened when I closed my first party? I got free stuff. This is awesome. You're the best director ever. (You really are Mandy Z.)
I'll let you know how the next month turns out.
Viva La Scentsy!
