tbowers8403 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 (edited) I'm boggled - simply boggled. Has this happened to you or anything similar?I'm trying to get some wax melt testers to make sure they scent well for someone else and in a variety of melters. I have gotten two questions:1) (from my cousin) do you need a melter. Yes...yes you do. So I didn't think my cousin was that bright.2) (from a person on my birth club - Yup I'm about 8mo preggo) Can i put it on my windowsill, it's south florida I am pretty sure it will melt.................................................I don't get it. I guess that is why you should have insurance. I was honestly debating against it since I decided not to go about selling candles.

SuzyK Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Oh that's funny. You definitely want people who actually know how to use the product to be your testers. I have received some funny questions too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlc Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) We just got back from a trip to Death Valley. On our way home we stopped in Beatty to have a bite to eat. Inside the cafe/saloon ( wasn't drinking THIS time ) the owners had a small section set up by the pop machine for the usual Avon stuff. I noticed a wax burner and of course I HAD to go look. I thought I recognized it and yep it was a Sentsy and had a no smell tart going. I don't know if the cafe was selling them or they were letting a local place them there but I had to fight off the urge to say something b/c afterall I was supposed to be on vacation and not thinking about work in any way. Now, I have to be prefectly honest in that I've never smelled one (Scentsy tart) before and I'm thinking this "tart" must have been going for a while b/c it has ZERO aroma. This thread reminded me of how people can be so sheepish and un-educated about certain things. I know I'm probably in the same boat as them with things that I know nothing of and I'm sure someone out there is laughing about me. The way I figure it this all makes it OK for me to laugh at them (customers) for their dumb (and sometimes scary) questions.So far, your customer/tester takes the cake TB.

My mother bought me a pack of Scentsy melts at a craft fair (yeah, real crafty) and it did not have a throw at all. I used to sell Partylite for a short time (didn't do well) and the scents had a better aroma than Scentsy, but didn't last. What got me making my own was a company that is local and had a stand at our flea market. It was Soy Melts and they are wonderful!! They now have a shop in town but I have yet to go in.
