Welcome!

Thanks for joining me! A few years ago I stumbled into becoming a sales consultant for a children's clothing line, and I've since been hard at work organizing & hosting biannual trunk shows, all the while having lots of success & fun. I've experienced steady growth from each season to the next, and I'm currently the company's #2 area coordinator! I proudly contribute my success to continuous efforts towards improving my shows & furthering my customer reach.

"Home Sweet Home Show" is a blog I'm working to develop. Although I've got many tips & tricks of my own to share, I'd love to hear what other moms "in the business" are doing...and hope to include your wealth of knowledge in my HSHS content!

I appreciate your willingness to share & look forward to getting to know you!

Comment by Beta on March 13, 2011 at 10:16pm: Just joined this group...Thanks for creating it. I work with Vault Denim as an Independent Fashion Consultant. This is my first experience with direct sales but while working with them for the last 6 months I have grown my business to something bigger than I ever expected.

What's not to love about having access to premium designer jeans, many of the same brands you see the celebrities wearing, but at a Vault Denim event you'll find them for up to 50% off retail.

I look forward to getting tips because as successful as I have been. I still have lots to learn. For me it has been a bit overwhelming how fast I have grown this business but I am willing to take it on. This is my future. It's been amazing.

I just made a landing page...please check it out and let me know what you think. I feel like it turned out. I can't actually say the name in my landing page. But I think people get the point and can ask for more info if they need it.

Comment by ESTELA SAGREDO on August 29, 2010 at 2:17pm: Hi Emily! I'm new to this group, and wanted to introduce myself. I'm a U.S. Marine, and a Scentsy Independent Consultant as well. I'm working on really building my Scentsy business in order to generate extra income to support my family, and as a form of stress-relief from the demands of a military life and being a Mom to two toddlers!
Scentsy is an amazing direct sales company to work for. We sell Wickless Candles, which are a safer, more affordable alternative to traditional candles. Check out my website at www.iheartscents.com. I'd also absolutely love it if you could LIKE my Facebook Fan Page. When I hit 50 members, I'll give away a Scentsy prize!!
