Today we’d like to introduce you to Sharon Scott.
Hi Sharon, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
My story is just like everyone else’s story that with through quarantine not knowing if they have a job or not after it’s over. 2020 hit us hard! Luckily, I was able to go back to my daily job which I have been working there for 15 years but I always had that worry in the back of my mind of being laid off in the future. My good friend and co-worker introduced me to the Scentsy life.
Scentsy is wick-less candles and scented fragrance wax for electric candle warmers and scented natural oils and diffusers. I have used it in the past but never thought about selling it. Then I remembered quarantine and I need a second income just in case. April 2022, I started to sale Scentsy with the help of my good friend. I realized that online sales are very hard to come by if you don’t know your customers so I started to do pop-ups at market nights. Since April, I have done over 30 pop-up events. I love how I get to meet new people and share Scentsy with others.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It has not been a smooth road. Scentsy is mainly online and there are consultants everywhere. Over 10 consultants that work with me alone. I knew for my business to take off, I need to get my face out in the world. I start my social media but still, I didn’t stand out. That’s why I started to attend farmer’s markets and market nights!
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I’m a certified independent consultant for Scentsy. I have named my business “ Sharin’ Scent”. Scentsy is a Wickless candles and scented fragrance wax for electric candle warmers and scented natural oils and diffusers. Sharin Scent is known at the local market events with all your Scentsy needs. I’m most proud of conquering my feelings of deciding to sell Scentsy. I became really good at it. What sets me apart from the other consultants is I do pop-ups event almost every weekend. I’m not just available online.
Alright, so to wrap up, is there anything else you’d like to share with us?
Scentsy is a job that you can do anywhere and at any time. Why Scentsy?
OUR WARMERS WARM, NOT BURN
Wax is only heated to body temperature meaning it will be warm to the touch, but not warm enough to burn.
NON-TOXIC, SAFE FOR KIDS AND PETS.
All our wax is made from food-grade paraffin. Totally safe and nontoxic if eaten by mistake by kids or pets.
WICKLESS, FLAMELESS SCENT
Unlike candles, all our scent is wickless and flameless meaning there is no soot, smoke or lead and best of all – no open flames.
