So glad I found your channel!! I love candles and have been interested in starting my own candle business
Thank you! Your videos are so helpful and informative, answering all the questions I have :)
Photos are super important. Get the ring light. Get the nice background. Get the fancy candle stand!
This video is filled with great advice. My shop isn’t a candle shop but all of the advice in this video is still relevant and helpful. Love it!
Oh great!! I’m so glad it was still relevant for you :)
Love ❤️ your videos, they’re very helpful for me, that I am thinking of doing something like that.

What needs to be put on a warning sticker for melts?
Did you do an llc or some proprietary? Also did you get insurance ?

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo You're welcome :)
How do you get into basic editing, and videos and design. I'm not very computer savvy
Are you referring to RUclips videos? Or designing labels? Everything I’ve learned is from RUclips videos honestly!
Is $10 profit for each candle a good profit?
I have started a Etsy shop, Ebay and website, only 1 sold bought by a friend. I have advertised on Snapchat, Instagram. Just struggling.
How’s it going 10 months later?
How's it going for you now?
Hope it's picked up?
@@kylieball8732 It didn't go well at all, so much time wasted. My product was great, but I just struggled to sell them on any platform. I gave up after a few months of trying. It was too much effort and no pay off.
@@juanfx5176Sorry for the late reply, just seen this. It didn't go well at all, so much time wasted. My product was great, but I just struggled to sell them on any platform. I gave up after a few months of trying. It was too much effort and no pay off. Maybe I didn't prepare or do enough research or planning. So I shut shop.
@@ThatsHotBtch Good morning, oh no I am so sad to hear that. I am finding online such a struggle!! I've made a few sales online but mine are mostly from shops, fayres and markets!! It's the only way I've found to work. Just hoping It will move online once I get myself out there. Just hoping that won't take years!! It's definitely a saturated market and alot of consumers want cheap and not luxury 🙈
Whats the app you use for your taxes again?
I pay for the monthly Quickbooks subscription :)
Why did you stop selling candles on Etsy?
I love your advice
Can you help me out and be my mentor
