How I Package + Ship My Candles On A Budget | Everything I Use to Market, Brand and Ship!

[@mcpcandlestudio3654]

Thank you for your insight. You are so right about reusing boxes shipped to you. I do it all the time. Also don't forget you can get free shipping supplies from the USPS if you are based in the United States. I love what you include with your shipment. They give your product and business and nice personal touch.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yes! Thank you!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yes! Thank you!

[@lynnekrueger9056]

Perfect timing…I just spent the past week researching and ordering all kinds of things many of which you talked about. I really wanted custom tissue paper and looked at that company. I thought it was really pricey, but I didn’t take into consideration that the sheets can be divided.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Oh yes! Divide them up! Or just stamp until you are ready!

[@millcitymercantile]

I’m sold on No Issue. I’m going to check out their prices.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Let me know what you think!

[@spieldose]

Thank you for the help!!!! Just started my Mercari business and shipping my first candle today!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Good luck!!

[@feliciaallen7493]

Hi. How is your candle business going?

[@fromhumblebeginnings7798]

Do you give instructions on cleaning wax from vessel? thanks!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I have a blog post for this!

[@lisaalso7875]

Hi Ashley... just a thought. What if the information on the last card you show (at 12:20) with ideas on upcycling the candle vessel, was printed on the tissue paper you showed??? Save a card and a step?? Just an idea! Best to you.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Great idea! Thanks so much for sharing. I'm not sure if I"d actually take the time to do it in real life but I LOVE the creativity!

[@terrabellasoap6714]

Wow this has saved me! I purchased a ton of 4 x 4 x 4 boxes for my soaps, but thought I could not use them.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yay! I'm glad it helped!

[@vanessadavila8108]

I love you and appreciate all your knowledge... its so helpful!!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Happy to help!

[@theartisthands]

Your videos are very positive.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Thank you!

[@moirnatural3354]

You are hilarious!! You keep me laughing 😆 thank you for being you🌼🤣🌸

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

You are too kind! Thank you for this vote of confidence!

[@laurieallen2491]

Thank you for sharing your process and your discoveries, Ashley! This is definitely helpful for new entrepreneurs. (Incidentally, "duplicitous" means deceitful, and is not related to the word "duplicate.")

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Woah! Learn something new every day!

[@sabrinalee7946]

Hi! Thank you for this information! The link you provided for us is from Amazon. Regarding the reviews, do they bug you or have any doubts buying their products? I feel like bad reviews from Amazon makes me doubt getting a certain quality of boxes. What do you do and how do you know which box is useful?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Honestly, I don't pay much attention to reviews unless its a pricey purchase. But don't follow me on that, ha!

[@Glowynailss]

Hello new subscriber here✋🏻One question do you feel like people like more to buy a candle in a tint or candle in a vessel? I want to start a candle buisness and are looking for vessels or tint to put my candle in. I was just wondering if you think it matters? Because the tint are more cheaper than the vessels :) and would be better to start with vessels but i dont know if people like them or not :) thank you🙏🏼

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I can’t really say as I have not tinted any of my candles so unfortunately, I am not a good resource for offering insight on that one.

[@moirnatural3354]

Thankkkkkk you Ashley🌸🌸🌼

[@rachaelg.4804]

Thanks for the reminder on the local shipping supplies.. they need our business too 😄 Already got my stamp at zazzle soooo awesome!! I love my Cricut! Spendy but so versatile! Mad they came out with a new one right after I got mine 😄🤣 No Issue sounds amazing! I have another side business i use poly mailers for but I would like bright colors. Hope they have more than black! Thanks for sharing!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

They have so many colors at no issue so I’d assume the mailers have them too! Thanks for watching!

[@moirnatural3354]

If you do sell templates I will buy!! I love yours!!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

So good to know! What templates are you looking for?

[@jenni20188fun]

Hello , where do you get the candle care instructions?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I made them on canvas and get them printed locally

[@val-bm3so]

Thank you Ashley For sharing the useful information. The tissue paper is lovely🎀 PeAcE

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

It’s such a nice touch! I know it’s not a necessary expense, but a viable one eventually!

[@aperson1181]

where do you put the prepaid label on the flat rate envelope?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I'd imagine on the front or back of it. On a flat part of it!

[@DavidWillis-p6p]

Thanks so much for the information on your videos and your honest presentations. They are very helpful. Tip: Take a look at the meaning of the word "duplicitous", which you used several times in the video. I think the word you're looking for is "duplicative". I usually wouldn't mention this, but because of the negative meaning associated with the first word, I thought you might want to make the change.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yep! You are exactly right 🤣🤣🤣 I am a repeat offender in misplacing words and just attaching what I think the meaning should be and using them as such. Thank you for teaching me something new today! I appreciate it!

[@shayparmenter4971]

Hi do you ship your products with just the brown box your do you ship using the double box method?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Just the brown box!

[@a.arizpe3663]

So helpful, thank you so much.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Glad it was helpful!

[@dianneharvey6155]

I forgot to say I’m using WW Apricot wax. Also,….I’m thinking about doing a 30 for 30 with you soon!

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I'd be happy to help with a 30 for 30!

[@dianneharvey6155]

I really loved this video thanks so much!! I know you don’t prefer these questions 😩 but can you give me your best go to suggestions on what Wooden Wicks sizes ( from WW) to try on the WW tins using WW FO’s ? 😵‍💫…..

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I'm definitely not in the best spot to recommend wicks! I do find that the guides that candle suppliers produce based on specific wax are a great place to start. Also, don't be afraid to remove a booster.

[@RachelHomeschoolMama]

Are you still using Wooden Wick vessels? Has their customer service improved? I just love their vessels so much.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I am still using them. Their ship times and some customer service issues have gotten better. There is still a huge disconnect with transparency in my personal opinion.

[@christianjaymaceda2012]

Nice video mam 😊♥️ watching from Philippines 😊👋🌟

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Thanks for watching!

[@mynaturalperfume828]

Love your being raw and real, could be me... We should maybe just NOT be embarrassed... Real life, real person, no 100hrs make up 💄 perfection... 👍

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yes! Thank you!

[@creativegemarts]

Do you package some candles without lids?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I package about 99% of my candles without lids, except for the tins that I sell!

[@markhamilton8765]

I am pretty sure that duplicitous means something different from what you might have intended.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

🤔🤔🤔

[@HerBeautysInsideOut]

what is your etsy link?

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

I had to look it up! Problem number 1 - www.etsy.com/shop/UpsideGoodsCo/

[@aliciacervantes5685]

Hi How can l place an order

[@livianafragrance]

🙏🏽 thank you

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

You're welcome!

[@lexy10985]

Uline has great packaging supplies

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Yes they do! I found a local company so I don’t have to pay shipping but they are definitely great when in a pinch for something specific!

[@MereofallTrades]

I always love seeing your videos in my feed 😉

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

This made my day! Thank you!

[@skweithiu2214]

Duplicitous doesn't mean what you think it means. You may be going for 'redundant.'

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Luckily I think people got my gist.

[@millcitymercantile]

👍👀👍

[@teapot6711]

She's not seen the prices at No Issue.

[@UpsideGoodsCo]

Oh I've seen them :)
