Erica, you will do well at whatever avenue and timeframe you take your business. I’ve personally purchased your products and they are wonderful. You are such a humble, conscientious, and bright businesswoman, and I wish you all the best in all you pursue! I always enjoy your informative videos and especially your trademark at the end when you smile and point into the camera and say, “I will see YOU guys in the next video....bye guys!” 👋🥰

Thank you, Erica, for your wise comments. I've been making candles on the side for a while, but your videos have given me an idea for how to turn it into a small business. Sharing what you've learned helps a lot. I really liked the tip to have brochures ready before going into a store to sell my candles.

"custom labels" are called white-label in the trade. instead of just a list which means nothing to a retailer, you need to make either tealights of the scents or wax melts so the retailer can smell the scents and can also describe the scent to the customer. and check Uprint for printing I have shopped all the brand printers avery, vista, etc and Uprint has the best prices.

Actually it would be much better for Erica if she had her candles in high end boutiques all over the country. The Walmart’s and targets will squeeze her on price and it wouldn’t be worth it in the end (unless she had massive production capabilities).

I’ve worked for several small businesses. It’s not too much to have a brochure. businesses when marketing themselves drop off marketing materials, information, and samples. If you came by without any of these things we wouldn’t have considered your items

@katharinebrooks5555 3 года назад
When you are figuring out the cost of your candles do you go be grams of oz and if so do you it by grams and what is your way of doing it if you do not mind. I have heard some people do it by ounces and some do it by grams which are better to do.

@lissetmurillo6809
@lissetmurillo6809 3 года назад
I used to always plan on doing wholesale in the future but then I thought it was confusing when you sell wholesale (based on the formula you explained) the retailer is actually profiting more than you per candle although we do get the money upfront for the sale and I am not sure how I would feel about that 🤔 I wouldn’t mind if the profit was 50/50..unless I’m getting confused?? What I understood was, if it costs you $4 u would multiply by 2 and that equals $8 which= wholesale price and they would sell it for $16 which leaves you with a profit of $4 per candle while giving them a profit of $8 per candle. ?
@beemeistah
@beemeistah 3 года назад
So, yes, you would only make $4 per candle, but you're selling A LOT of candles at once.....so let's say you have a 100 ct. candle order; that means you're making $400 per order, rather than $12 here and there when an individual makes a purchase. And, you're making the money immediately, whereas products can sit for a long time (on your website, etc.) if people don't choose to buy them. Also it's generally just you that you're "paying" whereas stores have employees and massive overhead (retail space isn't cheap!)

@MemoryBoxCandleCo 3 года назад
