My Story




I want to preface my story by telling you the honest truth: I am not a salesperson.  I had never been in sales before starting with Scentsy, had zero experience in selling a thing. Well, truthfully... I once worked retail in a clothing store for a total of two days back when I was 20 but was fired for not being pushy enough. Sales aren't my thang so deciding to take the leap and join up with this amazing company was definately out of my comfort zone to begin with.

But I knew one thing: the products were dope. I used them myself and absolutely loved them.

December of 2012 was a difficult time for our family, probably the most difficult time we have ever endured.  My ex-husband had already been gone on a deployment with the US Navy for 6 months and just as he was scheduled to come home to the USA we found out that his deployment was extended.  Not just extended, doubled from 6 months to 12 months (a full year!), so just as we were expecting him home we realized that we were now not even halfway to his homecoming.  I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis and was struggling to do everyday chores.  I was in San Diego, where Adam is stationed for his job, while all of my family and most of my friends were clear across the USA in Pittsburgh, PA.  Our children were young, 3 and 9 months old at the time.  To top it all off, we fell in to serious financial problems and were struggling to make ends meet. The hits just seemed to keep coming.

 
I had met Heather Gorsuch at a party, the very first Scentsy party I ever attended.  She was SO upbeat, positive and helpful in marketing and showcasing what Scentsy had to offer.  I thought to myself "Hmmm, maybe I could do this?" but didn't take the thought seriously.  A month or so later, however, it clicked in my head: Scentsy might be able to help my family and is something I could do while being at home with my kids.  We needed the money, day care was expensive and Daddy was already gone- why should Mommy get an outside job and always be gone as well?

 

I took the leap January 1st, 2013 and have never looked back.  I want to kick my own butt for not joining up with Scentsy sooner! Right from the get go I threw myself in to my new job.  It wasn't hard to get started as our products virtually sell themselves and are wildly consumable.  I shared my newfound love for the company everywhere I went and with everyone that I came across.  I started building a team of wonderful ladies and gentlemen who loved the products and were excited about the company as well.  In April, 2013 (4 months after starting) I became a Director with the company.  I named my Team "Team Purple Reign" after one of my favorite Prince songs and also because Scentsy's signature color is purple.  Over time, my team grew and grew.  In March of 2014 I promoted to Star Director with the company, a goal I never thought possible.  Currently, there are over 200 members or former members of Team Purple Reign and I am amazed at how much my group and team continues to grow.

If you have any questions about joining up with Scentsy or would like more detailed information PLEASE feel free to contact me.  I would absolutely love to hear from you. I shoot it straight, don't sugar coat things and will answer everything the very best I can.

Have a great day!
