BASKET PARTIES!

yay BASKET PARTIES!!! something that i do ALL the time and actually carries my business! :D

in fact, today i sent 3 mini's off in the mail! all over! one to rapid city, sd - one to michigan - and one to JAPAN!!! and unfortunately we all know that Scentsy doesn't send to APO addresses YET... but hopefully soon. my friend Steph lives on the military base in Okinawa and is going to share the product with her bunco friends! yay! so i'm charging them 10% shipping and getting it shipped here... then i'll out of pocket anything that is beyond the 10%. i'm willing to give my commission because once scentsy decides to start shipping to APO addresses... i want that military base to think JARI SPRY when they hear SCENTSY! so... that's my story! with basket parties you can ship them ANYWHERE!!!!!! :D

(oh and one basket it going to st louis missouri tomorrow! - hoofta! i need to start keeping track of where they're at!)

ok so now you ask... how do you get basket testers? well... you can order a full basket party set thru the business supplies on your work station. they are $60 plus tax and shipping. i have 2 sets. but we've ALSO started making mini testers... half the size of the testers scentsy has for the basket parties.left to right... party tester, basket tester, mini tester - see how little they are... less expensive to ship too!
i make these sets for $30 + shipping (which only covers the cost for jars, wax & labels) and i would be happy to make you a set. please let me know. it takes a little while to get the jars and filled and sent. a couple weeks.
ok... next question... how do i get people to do basket parties for me? well... ASK! ask your family, friends, co workers, neighbors, old neighbors, internet friends... ask them to HELP you! when you ask people who care about you to help you out... they will be willing to try. and they'll fall in love and be addicted and *poof* you have a new customer who is telling more people about scentsy. and who knows... maybe someone they share scentsy with will want to start and business and you have a recruit! and a new friend! wooo hoooo!
ok so now i'm going to email you all what i include in a basket party. documents... anyway! :D
but in my basket parties i include all scents 86 now that mays oxford is out (talk about yummy guy smell! mmmmmm!), a room spray, car candle, scentsy bar (can be used) and sometimes a plug in... just so they can test it out. business cards, 4 catalogs, 10 order forms, specials sheet, wish lists, door prize sheets (to get their information and email to add to my monthly newsletter - and to see if they'd be interested in hosting a show too :D) - oh and return postage!
ok... i hear my little one waking up (every night between 11 & 1230 and she's 4!! ha ha!)
so i'll send the email of documents i include in the box.
have an excellent day!
you girlios are AWESOME!!!!
xo!

  1. Hi I was wondering what size container you used for your mini testers. That is if you don't mind telling me. I was interested in making my own, I am not on your team obviously but if you would allow me to purchase a set of mini testers I would be honored.
