VLOG | Starting a Candle Business From the Very BEGINNING! Successes & Failures
I don't have labor to 😢😢😢
I need fond support, very difficult to buy everything 😊😊😊Dora
Very good 😊😊😊
Hi. Can you share information about your packaging?
We’d love to do a meet up and network.
Hey! Where are you located?
@ I go between Crofton and Frederick.
Yea definitely let me know! We can figure something out!
I wish my basement looked as good as yours!
@@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177 haha it’s not the best! But we are trying to make it better! But thank you so much!
Congratulations!
@@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177 thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing this information. How do you figure your labor into your final cost?
@@EllaRoseOji hey! No problem 😃. And I don’t really factor labor per se. However, I calculate my COGS and I look to see what the market dictates for these items. If the market I can charge “X” for this and my COGS are low enough to give me a margin of at least 70 percent. That is a good item for me. It gives me room to create deals, offer discounts, etc.
@@knightlightcandlecothank you.
Muchas graciassss!! Quizás necesitaba esas palabras, tengo 4 años probando pero el miedo me tiene paralizada,tengo 8 buenos productos k deberían estar ya en el mercado, creo k te voy hacer caso, thank youuuu!!!!💝
I am so happy to hear that! I know it can be scary, but you’ve got this!
I have been watching your videos and became a customer. I have enjoyed experiencing your journey and observing your confidence grow. Keep up your Dream. Remember, failures are nothing more than learning lessons and testing your determination to succeed!
Darren, thank you so much! Your support means the world to me
Great advice
Thank you!
Good points! Hope your business is having a good holiday season!
Thank you so much!
What fragrance oil did you use?
Hello there. May I ask how were you able to place the photo behind the template without the template lines disappearing?
When the photo's selected, send it backwards
What is the "number code" you use for labels from avery? Btw thank you for doing a video about this. Very helpful & dope candles!!
You're a star
Haha far from that, but I certainly appreciate that! :)
Where did you get your vessels from?
So these vessels I actually don’t use anymore, but I got these on Amazon. I now source my vessels from Alibaba.com
Great job 👏!! Congrats 🎉
Thank you so much!
Great job!🎊 🎉Congratulations!
Thank you so much!
thank you so much for this! what did you decide to do for labeling? these are great!
So sorry as I’m just seeing this! I am doing the 1x1 glossy labels from Avery!
Congratulations on your first wholesale order blessings to you and your business.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations
Thank you!
When you sell wholesale will the person ordering get to resell your items?
@@AllThingsJUDYTV yes they will! But it is a win win situation. Now my product and brand name are able to reach people I wasn’t able to reach before
congratulations.. nd can u pls help me out who to choose right fragrance oil nd base bcz people are complaining abt not getting smell
Thank you! And just make sure to check the IFRA. I only use oils that allow me to use 25%. So I do 3 parts reed diffuser base, and 1 part FO. Never had a problem doing it this way!
which is the best fragrance oil bcz am mixing 10ml bottle 7:3 ratio bt my customers are complaining about not getting smell so can u pls help me
Congratulations! Bigger and Better 🎉
@@queenmotheradeprecious6095 thank you so much!
Congratulations and job well done. That one order will turn into hundreds of orders. Thank you for sharing.
I sure hope so! Thank you so much!
That is awesome!! A huge congrats to you on this exciting milestone! Keep going! It gets better!
Thank you so much!! I have high hopes for the future!
@knightlightcandleco no matter what, just keep going! Stay focused and keep putting out your beautiful products! Networking does wonders and finding platforms to advertise and sell on do wonders as you can see. Also, find local boutiques to see if you can add your products in! Wishing you all the best!
Congratulations! Wholesale is definitely a step up! Keep that energy going!
@@lyricalstorms absolutely! Thank you so much!
Right on!!! That's awesome!!! How exciting!!! 🎉🎊
@@amytranter5402 yes! It was absolutely awesome! Thank you!
Great Job, I am so happy for you!!!!
Thank you so much!!!
Congratulations 🎉
Thank you so much!!!
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 😂
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 😃
Beautiful 😍 🎉
Beautiful Work!
@@Sherrie_Martin thank you!!🙏🏾
You truly keep me motivated Sir!
So glad to hear that! We got this!
do you need to let these cure ?
Nope! They are ready to go right away
Those are real sprinkles???
Nooooo haha they are wax sprinkles
Thank you for the tips your right blessings to you and your family
Thank you so much! God bless!
Great video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge? What size label do you use for a 7 or an 8 ounce candle?
Thank you for sharing. I'm so happy for you how far you've grown. I learned a lot from you. Likewise as my W2 takes me away from my business due to work travels but I'll keep my focus to build my brand. I appreciate this. Love and Light 🙌🏾
Thank you so much! And thank you for following along. That W2 can certainly get in the way haha but you got this!
I’m hesitant about using the wooden wick because I’m afraid I’ll lose hours off my burn time
@@nicolemartinboone5699 I completely understand! 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! Highly recommend giving it a try, but I know it’s tough to switch once you’ve found that perfect balance with your current candles. If you do, I’d love to hear how it went!
@@knightlightcandleco thanks that’s actually really reassuring! It takes sooo long to find that perfect balance during the testing phase so once you have it you don’t want to touch it. However I love the look of the wooden wick and know my target demographic does too. So I think its time to do some testing
@@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. ☺️
I’m here for the journey man. I’m thinking of starting a family candle business and I like how you tell how it really is. Many ppl just want to make it seem like it’s easy
@@nofsgiven3855 thank you brother! Yea I thought when I started this channel that people would like to see the real from the very beginning! I’m glad you are enjoying the content! I’ll keep it coming.
I have enjoyed your informative videos. I will continue to watch and follow your journey!
Thank you for the support Darren! So glad you are enjoying the videos!
Luxurious!!! Looks great!!! Very elegant!!
@@hollythomas773 thank you!! 🙏🏾
@@knightlightcandleco you're welcome!!
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.
@@aromataecandles haha thank you for the support! And best of luck with the roll out! I’m sure they will do great. How many scents are you starting with?
@@knightlightcandleco Thanks. I’m starting with 5 scents.
Do you use Candle Science's original reed diffuser base or their new EcoBase diffuser solution? Thank you! I enjoy your videos!!!
I use the original base! I got a big jug of it before they released the eco one. Thank you so much for your support!
I think that TikTok has been a great advertisement for us that do make car diffusers. I started adding silicone and focal beads to my diffusers to jazz them up a bit. I do better at events with the diffusers. I have mine in a store but don't do ask well. Thanks for sharing an update!
That's a great idea! What kind of store do you have them in?
@@knightlightcandleco They are currently in a boutique.
@@hollythomas773 that’s awesome! Did you reach out to them or did they find you?
@@knightlightcandleco I had actually reached out to them as I was in another store during that time. After leaving the store I was in, it unfortunately closed. I try looking in the surrounding counties that I'm in for boutiques that are looking for new vendors. I'm a one woman show so I know how tough it can be on one person to try and grow your business.
@@hollythomas773 the one person thing is super tough! I’m actually in the process of refining systems in my business and documenting everything so if I get to the point where I can bring someone else along, I can maintain that consistency in my products. I’ll certainly keep you all updated on if I can get in any shops as well! If you have any tips, feel free to throw them on here! 😁
Thanks for sharing ❤
You are so welcome!
Im new to listening as well. Thank you for you transparency. Im thinking of starting a candle business myself. Its nice to see other peoples experiences.
@@IRMOBILENOTARYLLC Welcome! And I hope my content will inspire you to take that step!
