Us bakery and pumpkin lovers are getting spoiled this season.. Scentsy was getting tired of hearing us complain 😂
Squeaky wheel gets the grease!!!😂 We’re going to be in bakery paradise this season!
I would LOVE a Scentspirations on Silver Bells! Wonder what the wattage is on the September warmer of the month because I love that thing!
Silver Bells is the best!
I don’t think we’ll get wattage info until the warmers start rolling in. I do wish they’d share that in the Warmer of the Month brochure!
Great update, Robyn! Thank you so much! Scentsy needs to focus on updating Club. If you have a bar in club, you should be able to increase the amount or select the bars in an existing club, that you want to ship, rather than getting the entire club.
I feel like being able to increase bars at least would be a great change and one that hopefully they can handle logistically. I’ve got my fingers crossed we see that in future!
Thank you for keeping us up to date. I also think perhaps Beetlejuice might be replacing Nightmare Before Christmas. As far as licensed products, I made the decision to give those products up when they increased the pricing last catalog change over. Great video, and awesome job of keeping us in the know! Thanks for all you do!!
Like always a pleasure to see and hear you clear and informative videos ! Thank you we appreciate your time and effort!❤!!
You’re at 3k subscribers! 🎉
💜🥳 Thank you guys for getting me to that!!!
I have ordered bars without bundling so many times! I am glad to see they are going to auto bundling. It makes sense
Great update video, Robyn! I’m bummed about the changes to scent circles and licensed bundles 😞 I think the Gourdy Goodness bundle is this season’s version of Scent-spirations since they said the scents are based on Pumpkin Roll. Sounds like a bakery lover’s dream lol! Sad to not see Nightmare Before Christmas returning. I’m hoping they are keeping the limited edition holiday warmer as a surprise for later - it would be sad if they didn’t bring one out this year!
I really hope there is an LE holiday warmer in the works too!!!
I've been biting my tongue after learning of the scent circles change. I can't hold it in any longer. I HATE the change. As a Consultant that does in person events and uses a small inventory for it, this change is BAD!! I would buy 4 6-pack Scent Circles to sell. So now instead of having 24 amazing individual scents for the customer to choose from, I will only have 8. 🤬🤬
Can't wait for September. I pray they didn't change the packaging of the Scent Circles. 3 plastic sleeves stapled to 1 card. They do that and I think I will stop offering them at my Vendor Events.
Trying to think why 3 of the same Scent. One idea I could think of is... easier to pull when getting the order put together.
For events the 3 packs being stapled together would be a real issue for sure. I really hope they keep the same packaging so at least you can part them out and sell them individually!
I won't be grabbing scent circles anymore. I saw the holiday brick scents and was disappointed in this year's scents. I just normally go nuts over them and was like, eh, at this year's scents. I'll probably just grab the tree scent and pick another for one bundle, but nothing jumped out at me. I am glad the big cotton clean ups are back. I did stock up on tons before they left so I have had them. I wouldn't bother with the small ones.
Oh man the bricks sound SO good to me - except the Christmas Tree one😅.
Yes, I agree they all sound good!! I love tree scents too. ❤@@RobynH
Hey Robyn, thanks for all the updates. I am so glad they are doing the auto bundle on the bars that is such a great change.
I agree. I am SO glad they finally did this, it is a HUGE improvement!
Another great update Robyn. I Always look forward to them! 😊
I let my daughter pick out some bars today and it auto bundled for us already so that was nice :)
That’s fantastic!!!!💜
I agree about the scent circle. BIG BUMMER
Its almost like they don't want us to buy licensed bars. Without the bundle and save I don't think I will buy the bars any longer.
I likely won't buy anymore either. If I do buy an occasional one, it will be in my club. I need to get the bakery disney ones coming in October though. 😂
@@LeticiaWorboys oh I forgot about those. Darn I want those too.
I will just place a Club order a couple times a year for the Licensed bars I want. It’s often hard for me to come up with 6 Licensed bars I want anyways, so I usually do just purchase the odd one I really want.
@@RobynH I feel exactly the same Robyn.
I'm hoping Scentsy is just holding out on the product to leave some surprise for us later. i would really love a warmer with Zero and his Doghouse or gravemarker.
They did say they were keeping back some surprises, so we’ll see!
Thanks!! I believe the auto-bundle feature is already active on our PWS!!
I would not be suprised if Scentspirations goes. I’m a new consultant just under a year now. But I’ve been purchasing regularly for 16 years. 👵🏻😂 In the scheme of that 16 year span Scentspirations is a newer concept. I remember when it was first beta tested as a concept. I think it’s a fun creative process but it may not stay necessary given all the fun projects they announced. And I do think they are very responsive to feedback and there has been a fair amount of feedback about all the overlapping LTOs. I will be sad if there is no limited edition holiday warmer 😢 I’m holding out hope tho because they said that there are still suprises to come. 🎉I’m so pumped for the large cotton clean-ups!!! Looove seeing your growth. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.
Yes, I could see Scentspirations not going on for years and years. It’s had 4 iterations now, so we’ll see if that’s it! It’s a fun idea but they tend to have a lot of fun ideas so I’m open to whatever else they’ve got up their sleeves too!
I would love a very snowy spruce scentspirations!!
If they have it, I think they will pick Johnny Appleseed. I think Welcome Home would be good too.
I think they still have some surprises up their sleeves.
Oh I’d LOVE a Johnny Appleseed scentspirations!!!
Thanks for always keeping us in the loop!
I hate losing single scent circles but do love the auto bundle!
Those warmers of the month are so cute ☺️ great thing about the auto-bundles! Congrats on 3k Robyn! 🎉
💜💜💜
I love that new bundle feature! Makes things so much easier!
Thanks for the updates. The automatic bundling feature has already started on the website, I was pleased to see the last time I was creating an order.
*Just did a quick check and licensed products do not automatically bundle currently; I guess because of the change coming in September.
That is excellent. I’m so happy about this change and am glad to hear it’s already working!
Congratulations on 3k! Thanks for keeping it all clear and concise!
Thank you Martha! 💜
My bar orders have been auto bundling for me for about a month or two already 🤷🏽♀️
Thanks Robin for sharing all the info.😊
I read somewhere that 2 bundles of scent circles are 18 US. its an increase of $3 US total on a 6 pack.
I haven’t seen that anywhere, but the paper copy of the catalog probably lists the price, so that is likely correct!
I’m guessing it’ll be around $24 CAD if it’s $18 USD.
Thanks for the update video, it was very informative and helps us plan ahead! I did buy 1 Limited edition Holiday warmer, it was the Skating Rink, its very neat to watch the Skaters go around....its beautiful! 🇨🇦
I remember the skating rink warmer, it’s very cute!!!💜
Thank you for the update Robyn! Looking forward to a nice selection of bakery coming up from Scentsy - and yay for the larger cotton clean ups! I like to choose my scent circles and have a number of different ones. Sometimes it's a good way to try the scent out before I grab the wax....the auto bundle will be a good feature for sure.
I love all your videos so much Robyn! Always keeping us up to date! That ghost warmer of the month for September is adorable! Might have to get that one 👻
Ooh I’m so glad you mentioned that the Nightmare Before Christmas may not come back. I swore I saw a sneak peek pic of that bundle like they had last year with the Jack brick. But I can’t find it again so maybe I misunderstood. I was about to take Jack’s Obsession out of my club, I better not!
I’ll miss the single circles but it’s not the end of the world. Thank you for the updates Robyn!
Definitely keep Jack in your Club for the time being!
I was using individual scent circles to let myself and customers test new scents. So I won’t buy them anymore. Some are so light or only last a day or so, that I really don’t want to chance 3 of one scent, unless it’s a known good one - like Aloe Water & Cucumber.
Thanks so very much for all the great info! Excited about the full size cleanups!
I agree, I’ll be looking hard for scent circle reviews before committing to a 3 pack now, or sticking to ones I know do well.
That great news about the bundle notes
These update videos have been awesome! You are so thorough and I appreciate all of the thought you put into them.
I agree with you about Nightmare Before Christmas being replaced by the new Universal products. NBC has had its time, in my opinion, and it's fun to see some new things being offered. The Christmas movie poster warmer is a highlight--I watch all three of those movies every year!
I wondered about the limited edition warmer you showed us the stand alone ornament, since the warmer usually has an ornament that comes with it. That is a toss up for me--I feel like it's almost always a hit so maybe it's just that it's still in production and they couldn't show it at SFR.
Thanks for sharing all of this, Robyn!
I agree, the limited edition warmers tend to be a popular item so hopefully there’s one in the works!
I'm so glad to have Jack's obsession in my club!
Me too! That is such a great classic apple spice bar.
Thanks for the updates. I’m thinking they are still gonna offer SOTM circle as a single during its month, curious to see if true. Circles are such a useful way to sample a scent, so eliminating single selection seems it hinders its function; wonder what was the deciding factors on that change. The cart prompts to bundle and save is a win-win. It will help them sell more and help us customers remember that option. I do hope they continue Scentspirations. It’s fun seeing all the review videos of who likes what in the sets. With all that is scheduled already, it will be an interesting fall season this year!
I’d love if they kept SOTM as a single circle. Because I agree, it’s a fun low commitment way to try a new scent!
Thanks for the information Robyn! Going to keep my negative opinions about all this to myself lol but appreciate the video! 😉
Very informative as always! Thank you Robyn!
You read my mind! I've watched several videos with SFR highlights and thought I just missed the limited edition warmer. I've never been able to purchase one, but I always get excited to see it and dream lol. I wonder if they're doing more element warmers of the month because they are typically at a lower price point. Especially with the higher price points of the licensed LTO warmers. It gives everyone options. I've noticed it's been prompting bundles on bars at least - a message saying 3 more bars to a free bar, or something like that. I don't typically add multiples of other items to my cart, so I don't know if it prompts those as well. I'm guessing they are giving NBC a break since a lot of those products ended up in clearance - and the Oogie Boogie warmer is still there. I have Halloween Town safely in my club which was my favorite of the group, so I'm grateful for that! Thank you for all your terrific videos!!!
That’s true - I’ve noticed a lot more element warmers this last year and I think it is because often they’re a lower price point and it gives a variety of price points for folks to choose from. There was a lot of flack for warmers being expensive, and they are. But they’re also the best warmers on the market, in my opinion. AND they’ve got the lifetime warranty so they want them to be well made or they’d spend a fortune on warranty replacements.
So I think they’re trying to offer elements as a lower cost option in some cases.
Thanks for these updates!!!
I think the change to bundling is a great idea. I know that I would definitely think about buying the 6th bar if the system prompted me that I was close to getting one for free.
I feel the same way about the Scent circles....picking different ones etc.
You did a great job Thanks
I love the new auto-bundle feature on the website. It took me by surprise last month when I ordered a 6 pk of circles but is really helpful. I am so sad about the change to 3 pk. I test the new arrival scents by circles to see if I like it before committing to a bar. I guess I have to go in blind now. As for Nightmare Before Christmas I think it's gonna alternate years with Sanderson Sisters. Keep people on their toes, to create FOMO but still be a little predictable.
I love your idea of alternating NBC and Hocus Pocus - that would be a great way to keep it fresh but still keep those great collections going!
I do wish they would switch up the bricks in the Scentsy Club. I have gotten all the bricks now. So we need a switch up. I’m liking the light up element warmers.
I agree it’s time to refresh the Club bricks! It’s been a couple years at least since they changed them up!
I'm bummed about the Scent Circles - I don't want 3 of one kind - I always buy 6 and usually get 6 different ones. If they wanted to raise the price fine, it's fine but I'm not going to probably buy like I used to now.
Having the auto bundle option may trigger people to round up and purchase more
Im wondering if Lord of the Rings is going to replace it? 🤔 They mentioned more to come with that one. I so hope we get the limited edition Christmas warmer! Great vid!
when you put items in your cart at old navy they hold for 30 mins scentsy should do the same when they do a flash sale thx for all the info😃
I love the mistress of evil bar the Maleficent one however I really don't want to pay the $7 price for a bar. Do you know about a bar that's close to that scent? Love your videos!
I can’t think of anything currently available that’s super similar to Maleficent - but Raspberry Hibiscus Tea is a tart berry, but has a hibiscus note that Maleficent doesn’t.
They’re not super similar but if you like one you may like the other.
I think they are either holding out for surprises or they aren’t ready yet. The Scentspirations I think maybe in the works but I do think they throw out so many new things that it’s too much to keep up with. The constant shipping charges is painful so I have not been ordering as much because I wait until I can add as many lines at once as I can.
Yes, I often hold out an extra week or so to wait for the next launch so I can combine collections in one order!
I have never purchased a 6 bar bundle of licensed bars. I like to add a bar here and there into my club for the 10% off so this change won’t affect me at all. If they ever up the price of the regular bars that will really affect me and my club I would have to bring down my club alot
Robyn, I am seriously tempted by the $20 join offer. I sold Scentsy about 10 years ago and stopped when they imposed unrealistic sales quota. I don't want to do this as a job, just as a convenience for people I know who like Scentsy. What is the current sales quota? What happens to my current club if I join Scentsy? There are mostly discontinued scents in my club, so I can't start a new one. Thanks!
If you’ve been a consultant in the past, you can actually rejoin for free anytime! I think the $20 join offer is only for brand new consultants.
They reduced the requirements during Covid and they’ve kept them pretty maintainable. All you need to do is sell/spend 200 PRV in one calendar month one time in a 12 month period. So if you place one large order a year, or a bulk order for your friends/family, you’re basically golden.
If you have a team, the requirements go up a bit to keep your team. But if you’re just doing it as a little hobby for yourself, 200 PRV one month per year is it!
If you have any other questions you can email me at robyn_harris@outlook.com! 💜
@@RobynH Thank you!
Hey Robyn, I think scent- spirations is the gourdy goodness collection since those scents are based off of pumpkin roll. I do not think that nbc will be back this f/w because of beetlejuice and the return of hocus pocus. Not a fan of the changes to the scent circles. Surprised to see forever flannel and cashmere leaves didn't make a comeback. I took a chance and removed them from my club thinking they were popular enough to return😥 I have a hard time believing based on feedback that dutch apple bread was more popular than either of those scents.
Here’s my theory on Dutch Apple Bread - because I agree, it was a polarizing scent.
My theory is, apple bakery scents sell well. Everyone will try those, because fruity and bakery fans love that. So the number sold will be SUPER high compared to other scents. BUT I bet Dutch Apple Bread had lower numbers of RE-purchase compared to other scents. But I don’t know if they consider that when cataloging bars. Just my guess, because that one was surprising to me too.
@@RobynH interesting theory and you could very well be on to something. I also think they love to keep around scents that don't sell as well to get rid of their overstock (ie: fairytale pumpkin). I'm going to be salty for a little bit over losing forever flannel. I hope, Scentsy realizes they did us dirty by bring back dutch apple bread and brings back a couple of the scents we want in an LTO 🤞
I did notice that the bakery Mickey bundle is 5 bars if the bundle was still available then we would get one free. Maybe they took the bundle option away and they are going to start doing Disney collections with 5 bars
I noticed that too - and wonder if they’ll do 5 bar sets of Licensed bars at a bundle price for those.
Thanks for sharing.
I saw that Harper James did a dupe of Jack.
We’ve had auto bundling in region 2 for a while now. Perhaps we were the test
It seems like so many of the warmers of the month are element now. Not a fan of the throw on most of those. 😕
I agree - warmer elements tend to be hit or miss for performance. And I generally prefer bulb warmers most of the time. I love the glow!
When I ordered a couple weeks ago, they automatically charged five dollars a bar when I hit six bars and it was noted as I was ordering that it was going to happen once I hit six bars
I’m so glad this is already in effect!!!
Is the fall winter transition kit available on workstation now?
Aug 1!
I seen a couple people on utube showing the catalog and the prices on everything was crazy ? So this isn’t true?
Whatever pricing you’ve seen in catalog is likely accurate - but there have been no increases since last season except for the scent circles.
Does anyone know which warmers are leaving the catalog soon?
I haven’t seen a list yet but I’ll figure it out when my catalogs arrive and do a video!
My name is Louisa Jones try white Christmas
❤
I think we will still have scentspirations they will just wait to tell us. I think they want to keep some things as a secret. I think that nightmare before Christmas is done and that they were phasing it out
Fingers crossed for Scentspirations!
