Why Selling Scentsy Candles Could Be Your Ideal Business Opportunity

Scentsy, founded in 2004 by two stay-at-home moms, offers wickless candle warmers, scented wax bars, room sprays, car fresheners, and plush toys. Acquired by Orville and Heidi Thompson, it became a direct-selling, party-plan company.

How Direct Selling Works

As an independent consultant, you buy products as you sell—through home parties, online, fairs, or person-to-person. No inventory risk. Build a team and earn commissions on their sales too. Low startup: $99 for a starter kit worth $200+.

Why Scentsy Stands Out

• Safe: No flame, soot, or smoke—just fragrance via low-watt bulb.
• Consumable: Customers reorder wax bars regularly.
• High Demand: 80% of US households use candles; $2B industry.
• Flexible: Work part-time, full-time, or as a hobby around your schedule.
• Growth: Named INC 500’s 19th fastest-growing US company.

Product Appeal

Warmers come in 50+ styles (Art Deco, Classic, whimsical). Wax bars offer 80+ scents. Lifetime warranty on warmers. Safe for kids and pets—wax warms just above body temperature.

Unlimited Market

Sell to homes, offices, doctors, dentists—anywhere flames are prohibited. Online replicated website included. Residual income potential as your team grows.
