My office has a meeting every week where we all get together, watch a presentation, and then tour the new listings from our office. Most weeks, the presentation is about something real estate related like a presentation from an appraiser, home stager, inspector, representative from local business organizations, etc. A couple of weeks ago, I walked into my office meeting and saw someone with a candle display set up, and I nearly walked out the door.
I mean....seriously...a presentation about candles??? I stayed for the meeting because I wanted to go on the tour, but I was skeptical about the amount of my time that was being wasted listening to someone trying to sell me candles. Much to my amazement, the presentation actually showed me a product I had never heard of that I actually anticipate being helpful in my business.
The presentation was given be a representative of Scentsy wickless candles. A Scentsy is basically a light bulb that heats up and melts scented wax to add fragrance to a room. The product is great for homes with odors because it doesn't have the danger of a candle flame or the cheesy scent of a plug in air freshener. It can be plugged in for showings or even put on a timer in a vacant house since it plugs into the wall to power the light bulb.
I know this is probably old news to most of the female readers out there, but I plan on getting one to use in some of my listings, so I thought I would pass along the info in case some other agents out there had never heard of it either.
