I’ve never wanted to do something so badly. I’ve known since lockdown that I wanted to start a candle business but fear has kept me stuck. Many times I’ve questioned if I was good enough to do this… hand on my heart thank you for this video. For anyone reading this we’ve got this, we can do this and I wish you luck on this beautiful candle journey 💖

[@MsAmarie87]

That's when I started dreaming about having a candle business. I'm receiving my labels tomorrow, but I'm still so nervous.

[@jeaniceanderson]

I’m on the same boat. I have pushed my launch date back so many times and I decided I wanted to have a candle business since the beginning of 2021. I’m planning on selling in person just to go ahead and do it, then focus on online sells. I’m currently in esthetician school and will try and sell to my classmates, friends and family.

[@Soulessence-eg5bd]

@@MsAmarie87congratulations on your business and I hope all goes well. I’m in the process of deciding on labels and the design I’m so indecisive lol x

[@Soulessence-eg5bd]

⁠@@jeaniceandersonthat’s a really good idea to sell to classmates family and friends, that way you can gain feedback from them on the candles. Good luck x

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I love the positive encouragement!! ❤️

[@MakaylaGalvan]

I'm excited to start mine I've got my dba done

[@brandylucas1783]

Couldn’t have been a better time for this video. Thank you!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You are so welcome! Glad it was right on time! ❤️

[@andreaturner4504]

I needed to hear this today. I have been starting and stopping in my brain for months now…the testing process can really mess with your head! 😅 I’m that ‘perfectionist’ that you talked about, always overthinking and trying to make things just right. Thank you so much for your insights!

[@preciousdaniel380]

The same for me

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You got this! thank you for watching ❤️

[@shannonevangelista]

I’m in my testing phase. Started in April, sometimes I wake and think “Have I lost my mind trying to start a candle business in this economy”. Yes I have, but I’m not stopping. 🤓 Also AI is a GAME CHANGER. If you’re stuck and just don’t know what to do or stuck on design ideas or copyright or hell even advice… ask your AI.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I totally agree with you! At first I was hesitant to use AI at all but I have really started using it as a tool recently!

[@shannonevangelista]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo girl, sometimes I ask AI to help me plan my day or how to even get started!

[@cultjalebi]

Thanks for the pump up :)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You’re welcome! ❤️

[@ceej_wv]

Hi, Erica! Just wanted to say thank you for all the guidance through these videos! Candle making has been a dream of ours to start and after watching you the last year or so we have finally purchased everything on our wish list! Looking forward to starting this new journey, thank you for all the content advice!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much for watching and I'm glad that you are getting value from my content! ❤️

[@lizfields]

This video came at a perfect time for me. Ive been in business right at a year. Ive learned so much! Ive been working on a change and working on getting that perfection and style that I want. I sit and worry because my products are far from perfect and afraid ive lost so customers but at the sametime, I dont think I would be finding that look, style and quality that I want without being where I am now. Very hard to explain but anyways, this video is easing my mind showing me to just keep going and ill get there. Thank you!

[@maritzabrown6741]

Perfect timing for this video have been thinking about this a lot lately.

[@audreybayona5420]

Thank you for such encouraging words. You have truly blessed me to get up and start where I am. Thank you and continue making amazing candles and videos. ❤

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You are so welcome!! ☺️❤️

[@janb6203]

I've been waiting to start for the longest time. I started making wax melts and have also made winkles candles. Wicked candles scare the heck out of me and I feel like that is what people really want. It seems so complicated to me but I need to just get over fear and do it. Thanks for the motivation!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@sanibelnaturals9381]

Where do I find the wick holders?

[@TherealRaphaella]

Is it a good to start candle business during the summer? Or I should this time to keep testing

[@scentedlegacy]

Erica, you are talking to me 😮😢

[@lavenderwarrior1]

Thank you for making this! Also, is it okay for me to just launch with 3 scents? I can't really afford to start with any more.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Of course! It’s your business and you can start as small as you need! As long as they are three very different scents then that’s okay and you can add more when you can!

[@lavenderwarrior1]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo okay! Thank you for replying! I've been trying to hash numbers to do 6 scents and it just doesn't work with the budget I have and I don't wanna take out a loan.

[@johana.V2]

This is for me 😫

[@karenhernke281]

Oh the white things that go on top the vessel. Where did you buy them? Sorry for all the questions.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

It's okay! all of our wicking tools are from this etsy shop! etsy.com/shop/carpelink

[@karenhernke281]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thank you!!!!

[@karenhernke281]

The economy is the reason why. But, I'm still working on a business name right now and making candles. I have to get insurance yet too. I'm getting closer to jumping. I am going to be at a market next week selling soap, wax melts, bubble scoops, and room sprays. Candles scare me. I want them to be safe for everyone. I will get their. Im a go getter.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You totally will get there! It sounds like you are being very intentional with your business which is a great thing to do! ❤️

[@mariahen19]

I have my name llc and labels I want to use

Hey Erica, what company to you use for your candle insurance? I tried Liberty Mutual but they said they didnt have a policy for me at this time. Any suggestions? Thank you :)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Hi! I use liberty mutual. That’s weird, maybe they don’t offer business insurance in your area? Did you go through a local broker?

[@karenhernke281]

How do you get your own website?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I use Shopify as a hosting platform and customized it to my brand!

[@karenhernke281]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo ok....thank you!!!

[@mariahen19]

You must of read my mind I think I’m just afraid of selling a candle people can’t smell

[@saralozano160]

I started but can’t get any sales 😢and I’m not every active or tech savvy on Instagram

[@karenhernke281]

Keep going. Some months may not have sells. The next month you may be busy. Don't give up.

[@TherealRaphaella]

Is it good to sell now with summer?
