5 Ways to Get Your First 10 Scentsy Customers
# 5 Ways to Get Your First 10 Scentsy Customers
You signed up, you got your kit, and now you're staring at your phone wondering: "How do I actually get customers?" Don't worry — every successful Scentsy Consultant started exactly where you are. Here are five proven approaches to landing your first 10 customers.
1. Host Your Own Launch Party (Virtual or In-Person)
Your launch party is your debut. It doesn't need to be fancy — it needs to be fun and personal.
In-person: Invite 15-20 people to your home. Have warmers running, wax samples out, and a relaxed atmosphere. Think "wine night with fragrance" not "sales presentation."
Virtual: Host on Facebook Live or Zoom. Show products, do a "scent quiz" where viewers answer questions and you recommend scents, and offer a launch-exclusive deal (like free Scent Circles with every order).
Why it works: Your warm network (friends, family, coworkers) is your first and most willing audience. They want to support you. Make it easy and fun for them.
2. The "Sample Strategy"
Order Scent Circles and hand them out. Literally. Give them to:
- Coworkers (break room, desks)
- Your kids' teachers
- Your hairstylist, dentist receptionist, dog groomer
- Anyone who provides you a service
Attach a small card with your name, PWS link, and "Want to try the real thing?" This turns $3 investments into potential lifetime customers.
3. Leverage Facebook Marketplace
List "Scentsy warmers and wax bars available" on Facebook Marketplace. People actively searching for Scentsy products will find you. This isn't cold outreach — these are people already looking to buy. (More on this strategy in our dedicated Facebook Marketplace guide.)
4. The "Favorite Things" Approach
Instead of posting "Hey buy Scentsy!" on social media (please don't), share genuine favorite-things content. Post a photo of your warmer in your living room with a caption like: "My house has smelled like Coconut Lemongrass for three days and I'm never going back. DM me if you want to try it."
This is authentic, non-pushy, and positions you as a fan sharing recommendations — not a salesperson making a pitch.
5. Offer to Be the "Fragrance Person" for Small Businesses
Approach local businesses that care about ambiance: hair salons, yoga studios, boutiques, real estate offices, Airbnb hosts. Offer to provide a warmer and wax for their space. They get a better-smelling business, and you get a display location plus referrals from every person who walks in and asks "What's that amazing smell?"
The Mindset Shift
Your first 10 customers won't come from being a great salesperson. They'll come from being genuine, generous with samples, and easy to buy from. Make your PWS link accessible everywhere — social media bio, email signature, business cards — and let your enthusiasm do the selling.
