Info from directors call

You all should have received an email from our director Lindsey. If you didn't, please take a moment to read the important information below. Great job team!!

Hello to my Wonderfully Amazing Team!

I hope you are all doing well! This could be a long but very important email (hopefully not to overwhelming) . I just got off the Director call and need to share....

First of all: Welcome to the Busy Season!

There is so much changing with Scentsy this week that Orville says the next few days will be the Most Eventful EVER with the new website & workstation, Canada launch, NCAA warmer launch, etc... These changes are going to make things so much better!
OK
Jack O Lantern warmers-they are back ordered big time! You can still order them for $27, HOWEVER, your customers will not get them until late November. I personally am not even offering them anymore.
NCAA Warmers-will be available Oct. 1. Currently there are only 3 schools participating (Boise State, University of Utah and Brigham Young) but Scentsy will be adding schools as fast as possible. There are 2 styles for each school. Check out the flyer in the Business Builders tab.

November Monthly Specials, Holiday Plug-ins and Warmers! Yeah! They will be posted on Oct. 1st on the new workstation in the resource section for you to see. There are 4 holiday plug-ins and several warmers (not sure how many several is but I'm super excited) We can purchase flyers (don't know if we can download them?) starting on Oct. 15th. I'm also not sure what exactly we will be getting if we subscribe to the warmer of the month-I'll see if I can find that out.

Tour Stops - I strongly Encourage you to check the News and Events tab of the work station and get to a tour stop if one is coming anywhere near your town!! In November there is one in Dallas and I can't wait! It is undoubtedly worth your time and money!

Paycards- We are currently paid our commission on the 10th of the month and sent a check via snail mail. Beginning with our October commissions, we will be paid using a pay card system. Look for your paycard to arrive in the mail the week of 10/26 along with important information. It will be a Scentsy/Visa card and work like a debit card.

Canada - With the launch of the new software on Oct. 1st, we will be able to sponsor Canadian consultants after signing up with Scentsy Canada. This is very Exciting! I'm not going to go into it here, but if you have ?'s, call me.

NEW SOFTWARE TRANSITION - This is the Big One!- Beginning Oct. 1 we will have a new Consultant Website/Workstation . IT IS GOING TO BE SOOOO AWESOME!! I understand that change is not always easy, but I PROMISE you it is going to be so worth it to us and our customers!! I encourage all of you to get some training on this to make the transition easier. We will be getting an email with training times and the subjects that will be covered during these trainings that will begin on Wednesday, Sept. 30th. There will be webinars covering editing our personal websites & order entry on Wednesday, party manager/party assistant and enrolling new consultants on Thursday, and accounts & resources on Friday. These webinars will be recorded (I'm sure) for our convenience.

Scentsy will be posting a website tomorrow that we all need to check out. It is transition.scentsy. com .

Things we can do to get ready:
1.Get your September orders in ASAP! Please don't wait until the last minute because you may lose your orders. Orville suggested by noon on 9/30. Same thing goes for any events you have set up on your current website. Our current websites will be disabled for ordering around midnight MST. You will still be able to access your 'old' website in a view only mode to check order history, commissions and downline reports.

2. Pay attention and watch for email communication from Scentsy! Don't want you to miss something important! And get some training at least on placing orders. You don't have to know everything the first day.

3. Download the silverlight application now. You all should have gotten an email from Scentsy with this info. If not, let me know and I can forward it to you. FYI, currently you can not download silverlight on your iphone. Scentsy is aware of this and is looking into iphone applications. One good thing about our new software is that it can be changed, adjusted, tweaked and improved upon!

4. Be patient, this is going to be a process. Our workstation will populate immediately but our website (where customers can place online orders and potential recruits can sign up) could take up to 72 hours to go live. This is due to the refreshing of the internet, nothing Scentsy can do about it. Also, all of our info (customer info and everything else) will have to be transitioned over a period of time. They can't switch it all at once.

Booking Rewards and $5 Hostess Fee - Scentsy is doing away with the exhausting process we currently use to redeem booking awards-yeah! !
Basically, every party order($150 or more) we submit on the new workstation will have an available booking award(half price item) to use as we wish. And the $5 hostess reward fee that is currently applied to all party orders will be waived as long as all half price and booking rewards are redeemed. THIS IS FABULOUS!

Scentsy is such a blessing in my life. I am so excited that you all are on this journey with me! There will be some confusion and we will all have lots of questions. Let's enjoy the journey and ride this wave!!

And now the INCREDIBLE monthly numbers! (those of you who have been around a while know that I really like this part )
