Thanks so much for this video Wade, your numbers and strategies are very encouraging. Further breakdown of what sells would be great too. One reason your channel is doing well is something you can't experience....it's what WE experience on this side of the computer. Watching your videos is like having a "sit-down" with you. Your ability to "reach through" the computer to the viewer is exceptional--and VERY hard to do. You are a natural at this. I'm staying tuned!! Looking forward to more big news.
Wade, I think your channel gets higher engagement because you yourself are so open and forthright. It invokes trust in people. You also interact a lot more than similarly sized channels.
I get asked a lot if I teach and I ALWAYS give them your business name. You are highly respected and deserve every bit of what you receive. I value your experience and inspiration. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT HERE ON RUclips!!!
Awesome job Wade!! I'm hoping to see these kind of numbers in the upcoming years! I really like how you broke everything down and I would love to see a video showing where your product sales came from (local sales, online, wholesale, etc!) I am wanting to do a video breaking down my candle sales as well and I find it so interesting hearing how others do!
I personally appreciate a video like this. It gives those of us who haven’t even launched yet some hope that we can reach this level of success.
Yes, more about specific candles and revenue. Congratulations! On your 2022 success.
The absolute BEST RUclips channel on candle making on RUclips. Thanks, Wade! You're a household member without the expense. LOL!!
my vote is yes for types of products that sold, best sellers, margin, revenue, etc. would love to watch this kind of video from you for learning and inspiration as well!
I have learned sooo much from watching your videos. You keep it real, honest, and completely thorough. I'm always taking notes and referring back to your videos I saved if I have questions about anything. Thank you for all your help .
Thank you so much for posting this video, Wade! I don't like comparing myself to other business owners because we all run our businesses so differently but I love watching videos like this. These kind of videos are inspiring and helps to confirm for me that what I'm investing in and spending so much of my time working on is profitable :)
I love your videos, thank you for everything you do for the candle-making community. Wishing you the best for 2023!
Thank you wade for your comment on this video. I am new to the channel. My wife and are starting a candle making business. We hope to make it a thriving business one day. Keep up the great work.
People need to hear this info. If people want to start a business it's Ultimately about making more money. The wife owns a boutique and has started making her own candles and your videos are a huge help!!
You are truly an inspiration! Thank you for so candidly sharing the business side of your passion and congratulations on your success! I look forward to your newsletter!
Loving the help and honesty. Def a breakdown on the wicks revenue please
Congratulations. Happy New Year Wade! Thanks again for all you do.
Awesome! Really sticking with it as any business owner is key. Too many people think you just open a business and immediately makes tons of money. I also agree have several revenue streams adds up as well as securing that you don’t have all your money coming from one source if that source has a downturn. My first year as a candle refail store is coming up and I have been very pleased with the first year. Better the expected results and should see continued steady growth for year 2. Wade gives good advice!
Hi Wade! First thank you for your positivity, honesty and transparency. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have became interested in starting my own business. I am registering my company name this month. Congratulations and I wish you nothing but great success in 2023 and beyond.
Best all around candle channel you can find! Awesome as always, Wade.
Of course we are interested in the types of products sold, the variations, the revenue the margins! Hell yeah!
