Thanks so much for this video Wade, your numbers and strategies are very encouraging. Further breakdown of what sells would be great too. One reason your channel is doing well is something you can't experience....it's what WE experience on this side of the computer. Watching your videos is like having a "sit-down" with you. Your ability to "reach through" the computer to the viewer is exceptional--and VERY hard to do. You are a natural at this. I'm staying tuned!! Looking forward to more big news.

Hi Wade and thanks for the video. YES, YOU ARE INSPIRING!! :) It really feels like you are talking directly to me! We've been trying to get our fledgling candle business in the UK off the ground, but struggle, as I am sure many others do, in managing production and earning a living. In particular, a video showing product types, favorites, margins, etc would really help! Although I can make a reasonable container candle now, I still struggle a bit with wicking, especially wood wicks. (test test test test) However, the real pitfall for us is simply not knowing what to make and how far ahead of a season, do we need to be. Hence Option#1, please!! Thanks again for the videos, they are really appreciated!! Dave

Awesome! Really sticking with it as any business owner is key. Too many people think you just open a business and immediately makes tons of money. I also agree have several revenue streams adds up as well as securing that you don’t have all your money coming from one source if that source has a downturn. My first year as a candle refail store is coming up and I have been very pleased with the first year. Better the expected results and should see continued steady growth for year 2. Wade gives good advice!

I think another reason your RPM is so high is because you respond to pretty much every comment on every platform you have. Your long time viewers know you truly want to help and know they will get a response from you, building relationship and increasing engagement... not that engagement is the goal on your end. But it does make viewers more inclined to comment if they know you'll respond. Speaking from personal experiance, I never really comment on other RU-vid videos haha just yours lol

Great Video and congrats on a wonderful year of success. Interested in learning more about white label/private label and wholesale. More of how you obtain these accounts and the most effective way to get them. Such as pricing/what type of scents do you offer. Do you offer your private/white label scents that you already use in your line? shipping and basically walk through of all of those type of things.

Great video, can you please do a more in-depth video of your candle business. What are the best selling products and how much did you make from them? Is it worth selling accessories like wick trimmer etc? Are wooden wick candles more profitable or cotton or does it not make a difference? Wax melts? Etc etc. I am working to build a luxury line and just looking to know what makes the best products for sales

That's all great information and numberwize (if that's a word) it sounds really good but I'd like to see that compared to the costs and how that all shakes out to get an understanding of what a fledgling company "could" make. Example, if you are reinvesting what you earn off of RU-vid, what would be a good number to roll back into the business? How much of all those numbers was spent on products and equipment and rent etc. Then at the end of the day, were you able to earn a decent living? Actually, this info in percentages would be quite insightful to know more of a strategy to go on. Maybe something like this as second part to this video would be great too! Thank you so much for sharing and your time to do this, I really appreciate it!!

Hey Nancy. Yah I plan to do a much more detailed one on all that info. Just wanted to get a summarized one out first about revenue streams. But to answer your question, my margins are good overall at around 70% Gross PM and the other streams are nearly 100% minus the time I invest of course. But overall 75-85% GPM (meaning after cogs). My net PM minus all normal general expenses and overhead varies between 20 and 40% which is above average. But you really can't compare that between business because of structure and other differences. For example, I made way less net this year because of all the relocating and purchasing equipment and tons of reinvesting. With that I still make 6 figures... but others could definitely do it better and easier than I did because no one would normally spend as much as I did in 2022. 🤣

I was so exited to start making waxmelts, I did my numbers and its so expensive just to make, I bough 1kg of wax and a few me of differents aromas just to try and they turned out great, but I sat down to calculate and it was huge deception. Is it always like that at fisrt until I can buy bulk from whole sellers?? (Im kind of stubborn to quit ) Im in Chile, but Im not chilean.
