    This was awesome. Love your content. I’ve got my summer scents and we did a summer scent sampler 3 weeks before launch to let our ppl smell before we release. Love the candle parties. Jewelry and Tupperware companies have done this forever. So smart. I’m doing a scent of the month and considering doing monthly membership boxes with a single scent that’s only available in the box.
    I’d love to see a video on doing a summer craft fair/farmers market and the heat… I’m concerned. 😂

    You have such good timing! I've been wondering how I'm going to make the summer sales work somehow. I'm prepping my summer lineup of products, candles and wax melts included, and those seem to struggle until August/September. I am going to take these tips in to account and hopefully it'll help with the summer, especially since my new shop is open now after months of work. Thanks again for all you do!

    Stone Candle in CA does the candle making workshop, they place the candle in the frig then hand it off to their clients 2 hours later and let them know they can burn the candle later that night! I almost fell off the chair lol 😂

    • @BlackTieBarn
      @BlackTieBarn  Год назад +1

      I mean... to each their own. I'm not doing that though personally. But I guess it could depend the candle size and the wax type

  • @francesrevilla8222
    @francesrevilla8222 Год назад +2

    Hi Wade, this was a great video. I am the owner of VelaWick Candle Co in Miami. I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing this during the summer. I have thought of doing the candle party. Where someone hosts a part like a Sip and Sniff😊 party and they invite their friends. My issue is I don’t know how to get that going. I would love that video and your help.

    • @BlackTieBarn
      @BlackTieBarn  Год назад

      No problem. I've done several over the years. :)

    Hello Wade! Where do you recommend getting a good citronella scent?? And since you're so great with color, what suggestion (if any) do you have for doing that?

    • @BlackTieBarn
      @BlackTieBarn  Год назад +1

      Not really sure on citronella. But try nature's garden. They have a few. As far as color, check out the video about color here on the channel. :)

  • @levigoodsite8613
    @levigoodsite8613 Год назад

    Hi. I was wondering if you use the same colors for a specific scent, like, an example is Would your pine candle always be the same green or do you switch it up? Also, in terms of summer sales, Im working on a 4th of July line with some American Apple pie, Gunpowder and Bomb Pop scents. What else says Merica?

  • @ReneeStJames
    @ReneeStJames Год назад

    Hey Wade hope all is going well! Just have a question for you about private labelling! We have a couple wholesale accounts and was just asked about private labelling to a new possible store! Have no idea what to charge if we do? Would you happen to recommend what price to charge for a 16 oz soy candle? Thanks so much!!

    Hi Wade, thank you for all your videos I have learned a lot. I am wondering if you could make a video about sending emails or newsletter, but my question is how do you get does email address. I am just starting and I do not know how to go about it.

    I wonder if BBW has this problem? I bought candles year round from them. And the July biannual sale was a good time to stock up.

  • @toyamichelle
    @toyamichelle Год назад

    I'm in FL doing wood wick candles. I decided to try + switching over to IGI6006 so my work survives the heat and humidity. Worked 2 markets over the weekend 5-6hrs each without melting at all! For half and half way, I use BW908. But it doesn't survive in the heat at all. So, wax on and wax off for me lol
