One of my Mommy Must Haves!

       I am a mother of three awesome children, and I love anything that can make my job easier (who doesn't?). I have been a member of many different groups and websites over the years but there is one that has stood out to me most of all. That website is Amazon Mom. I love Amazon to begin with and have loved and used it for years, but when I heard about a new (at the time) group that was being built to help moms get everything they need in one spot, I was so excited and just had to become a member.

    If you have never heard of Amazon Mom let me explain...
It is just an extension of Amazon Prime. The Prime membership gives you FREE 2-day shipping on all   prime items, unlimited streaming of movies and TV shows, you get to check out one free book a month on your kindle, and you are also able to sign up for Subscribe & Save. If you are not a Prime member when you sign up for Amazon Mom you have the option to pay the ($79.00) to become an Amazon + Prim member, this gives you all of the perks of Prime as well as all of the deals that you get for being a mom member. Amazon Mom gives you everything you need in one location. At this point you might be saying to me, "But Kristi, I can get everything I need in one location at Target or Walmart too, so what's the difference?" The difference is, when you go to Target to get a pack of diapers you more then likely don't leave with just a pack of diapers, you find 4 or 5 things in the dollar section right when you walk in the door, and then, in order to get to the diapers you have to go by or through the baby clothes section and you know you will NEVER make it out of there without something accidentally falling into the cart. So to avoid a $100 bill at checkout shopping on Amazon is the way to go. Also if you have multiple children sometimes running to the store to just get diapers is just out of the question. With Amazon Mom you can get 20%off of diapers wipes and other baby items with Subscribe & Save. Amazon Mom gives you 15% off of the items in the Amazon Baby store and signing up for Subscribe & Save gives you another 5%. 
   When you use Subscribe & Save you select what items you want to have delivered to your door and you tell them how often you would like it to arrive and Amazon takes care of it for you every month so you don't have to think about it. As en example I subscribe to Diapers and Wipes, they show up at my house every month during the first week of every month and I never have to go to the store to pick any up. I don't always use all of what gets delivered so that helps build up a stockpile for those times when you need more then normal.
  Amazon Mom..... In my opinion it's worth every penny. The downside is that I have a million boxes in the garage that need to go to the recycling center, but I think that that is a small con to all of the pros that go along with this program.
    When you first sign up you get to try it out for 3 months for free. YOU CAN"T BEAT THAT!!! Amazon wants you to know that "Despite the name, you don't need to be a mom to join. Amazon Mom is open to anyone expecting a baby or caring for a baby or young child, whether you're a mom, dad, grandparent, or caretaker. We just thought "Amazon Primary Caretaker" didn’t have the same ring to it."

Scentsy Sunday Week 2


Happy Sunday! 
This week's post is all about using personal promotions to help build your business. I am going to go over one promotion in particular that I am using, hopefully it can help you and your business. 

I was very inspired by the popular trend of subscription boxes. I know they are very big in the beauty community right now, but also as Scentsy Consultants we get to subscribe to the SOTM or WOTM Kit. As I received my SOTM package one day I thought how cool it would be if my customers could experience a Scent of the Month kit as well. I asked a few of my loyal customers if they would like to have something like this and got a very good response. I then went online to www.vistaprint.com and designed my post card that I was going to mail out to my customers. Once I had the design that I wanted I paid for a proof copy so that I could send it into Scentsy add approval. Once I got en e-mail back saying that my design was approved I had to submit a third party printing authorization form. After all of this was done I was able to have my design printed :) I designed this card to look like a post card so that I could just put a stamp and an address label on it and it would be ready to go into the mail.

The name of my promotion is called "What's That Smell?!?" I offer it for 6 months costing $30.00.  The customer will get one bar at the beginning of every month when the Scent of the Month is sent to me. The cost of $30.00 includes tax and shipping, the customers love that!! As a consultant I get my SOTM subscription about a week or more before the moth begins so, as soon as I get it I send out the bars to the people that are subscribed to my subscription box.
Just a few disclosure points....

~You should make sure to tell your customers that this promotion is a personal one so it is NOT available on you PWS.

~If you are having a third party print your flyers you MUST have a form signed an approved before you have them printed.

Here is my YouTube Video explaining everything...........
