I’m a beginner start up business and I am deciding to create a package set which consists of candles. I 9:37 don’t know if I should invest in wholesale candles or make my own candles? I should include I don’t know how to make candles 😂
@knightlightcandleco6 күн бұрын
Hey! So it’s totally your decision, but making the candles would definitely be more economical and allow you to partake in bigger margins, BUT the testing process is a lengthy one and making sure all of your candles are quality can take some time. If you are ready to launch, you may want to consider buying the candles from another maker wholesale. The margins will be a little slimmer, but all of the work is already done! There are so many great companies out there who I’m sure would love to work with you 😃

Obviously more testing would need to be done for your particular candles, but I’ve found with mine, that I’ve actually been able to increase the burn time!

@@nicolemartinboone5699 nothing wrong with just testing it out! The good thing is you have perfected your other candles, so worst case scenario, you can’t find that same efficiency with the wood wicks you are testing, you know you have a great product that your customers love with the cotton wicks and can stick with that. ☺️

Great ideas for wholesaling car diffusers 👍. Thanks for that - I hadn’t considered that. I’m getting ready to roll out some car diffusers (I’m labeling them as “mini” diffusers) soon to see how they do on my website. I can see how they would sell better in person, but I’ll give it a go on-line. Just subscribed. I’ve watched a couple of your vids and didn’t realize that I hadn’t subscribed yet 😳 I’m enjoying your content.

I make and sell these.. and yes it matters . the fragrance oil shouldn't come in contact with your skin. some are OK like the ones made for soap and lotion. but most are not safe for skin as I'm sure your aware.. I sell a similar vial at my booth along with wax melts. I tested in my car and husband's truck for two months before selling. what I found is some of the little wood lids are faulty. they don't screw tightly and this causes the bottle to unscrew and fall to the floor of the truck. Luckily not much spilled out. The other one would swing so wildly over a speed bump or driveway that the glass would literally hit my windshield. had to shorten the slack on em.. they work really well. after 2 months my glass vial was still half full and it was 105 degrees for weeks and it didn't dry them out. You do need to tilt to add fragrance to the reed lid about once a week or so to keep it smelling and when you tilt it your fingers get coated in fragrance. they aren't perfect but they do the trick ..
