How I Pack My Shopify Orders | How To Protect Your Candles During Shipment

[@hellskitchenkritterandfrie3372]

I’m struggling through loneliness right now and ordered you melts to help muster through. Makes so much sense why I connected with your brand immediately.

[@aydenfisher3535]

i know im asking randomly but does any of you know a method to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!

[@sonicamy4518]

Nice packsging! People always enjoy an experience vs. thrown in the box. I've ordered from a big influencer who throws product in a box and ships. Then I get a lovely wrapped box from a small business and it was truly lovely. Support the small business not the influencers! Tbanks for highlighting strong women!

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

hahahaha! I appreciate that! Yes, I take pride in my packaging and truly care about what the customer will experience when opening their order. They did spend their money lol ;)

[@biancav1754]

I would prefer less plastic and more recyclable material for the package.

The curing time is what gets me. I find that my candles perform better after they’ve cured for at least 2 weeks. I guess I’m nervous about making candles that won’t sell or taking too long to get them out because of the curing time. 😩 I have NO idea what to do. I’m hoping that taking pre-orders will help me gauge what my customers are looking for.

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

Tunisia Engram I get it! Candles do perform better the longer they sit! So before I launched I did a pre-sale. And once my pre-sale came to a close, I ordered what I needed, made what I needed - enough to fulfill orders plus inventory stock. Which allowed candles to sit for a few days prior to packing orders. So although they didn’t get to sit for a week, it was a few days to give them some time to rest. But as you begin taking regular orders you will always have inventory which will sit for while. But when you first launch, you don’t know yet! I will be making a video on this for more detail!

Thanks for your detailed response. I truly appreciate you! At the end of the day it’s really boils down to getting out of your head and having faith in your product. I’ll be patiently waiting!! 🥰
