I honestly appreciate you being open about this and willing to share. It's so good to at least get an idea of what experienced people are using, are doing and what they'd recommend. You get a good first hand opinion, and not just something similar or what you wouldn't know personally. Thank you again!

First off I just want to thank you for how giving you are with information and really setting us up for success for those who want to go in business doing this. I've been wanting to do this for awhile and I'm finally ready to really do it. I've been doing my due diligence researching everything I can related to candles and the process of making them a well as the business side of things. One thing I havent heard in any of the hundreds of videos I've watched and hundreds of pages I've visited is how long should a launch take. How much time should I give myself because I don't want to take too much time but I don't want to rush. If I'm starting now, or say November which is when I should have all my supplies, how long should I take before I actually start selling ? Thank you in advance if you get around to answering
@BlackTieBarn
@BlackTieBarn Год назад
There isn't a set hard answer on this because it depends on so many things. Which is why it probably isn't discussed much. How much time do you have to work on it daily or weekly. Do you have a descent budget for it or tight budget. How many jars, scents, etc. The short answer is once you have a handful of finished candles that burn/perform well and also safely.... you can get insurance and start selling. But that timeline is very different for everyone

Ha. Well thanks Maren. It isn't bad...... but, the amount made compared to ti k e spent is definitely not a good wage. 🤣 Everyone sees it as a possible glamorous solution but it is rare and more than anything, the amount of time spent is hard to comprehend. I spend as much time as a FT job doing it. Lol

Completely agree! I have watched pretty much every video you have put out Wade, and I just want to say a huge THANK YOU!! You're videos are such a gift. I finally launched my business this summer after over 2 years of prep and planning, but not having the time to pull the trigger. I can truly say your platform is what gave me the knowledge and confidence to finally do what I've been wanting to do for a long time! We did our first market yesterday and had great success! Heartfelt thank you coming from Canada on behalf of the candlemaker community!

Wade, there is so much great content in this one video---thanks a million! When I'm on FB or other candle groups talking about issues, labeling ALWAYS comes up. There are so many options and I think that causes overwhelm---people don't know where/how to start getting their labeling going and have it manageable. I've gotten great templates on Etsy (there are many) and that has made it MUCH easier for me to get a good result.

@BlackTieBarn
@BlackTieBarn Год назад
it almost always cost more per label to print at home with your own printer and ink. Its super cheap online in high volume and the quality is unmatched. But, its more upfront cost because of the MOQ to get good pricing.

I've tried the trial of Craftybase already, just to see what it was like and I liked it, so will be using that in time. I will use Quickbooks and Sticker Mule too as its available here in the UK also, which is good . Thanks again Wade, you're always my go to channel now for candles.

I would like to see more on labeling, and insurance. At what point do I need to get insurance? I'm just getting started. I've been working with one wax, one jar, and 5 scents. Once I was happy with those, I made 8 candles and gave them away to my fellow nursing supervisors at work for their honest review. Now the other supervisors are pitching in money for me to make a candle for all 70 of the employees on our unit. Talk about a big first order! I won't be making any money from these, but I think this will be a great way for me to get my little up and running.

The apricot.😁🤣 No but seriously, apricot ads a little more creaminess. At least in my experience m coconut alone can be quite greasy and soft. That's why it's often used in a blend. Other than that.... nothing significant in my opinion
