Thanks for this video.
0:55 - 1. Keep track of your supplies and add invoices
1:40 - 2. Trademark your business name.
2:25 - 3. Do not name your candle the same as the scent. The fragrance vendor can sue you.
3:20 - 4. Have a website. You can market with customer email inputs.
5:03 - Zyro - webpage creator. Web speed is important, bc the customer attention span is short.
6:30 - Zyro example
13:00 - 5. Tiktok and IG reels drive traffic. People like to see the candlemaking process.
14:55 - 6. Find a small boutique
That’s actually incorrect about a few things. You don’t need to trademark your business name when you first start out. An LLC is for registration of your business and has nothing to do with a trademark. No state will allow 2 companies in the same class to have the same name so when you register your LLC with your state - if no other company has that name then you will be the only company in the state with that name. No trademark needed. Also if you choose a name that someone else in another state has and they used it first but you trademark it now - they can argue “first use” and keep using their name. Also the majority of candle fragrance manufacturers allow you to freely use their name of the fragrance. Candle science, wholesale supplies plus, wooden wick and many others allow it. Though I do think it’s a good idea to name your scents differently from the manufacturer.
all great points. WIshing you all the best in your business, It is amazing to research and constantly learn more about your craft!
And in some states you dont even have to register your business. I just learned this from A small buisness advising class at gresham oregon library!!!!
Definitely saved this video! Making candles are one thing but learning the ins and outs of the business is another! Thanks for the tips!!!
You are so welcome!
I absolutely agree a website is essential! Also yes - TikTok and reels will make a huge difference 👍🏼Vendor shows - a MILLION times yes!!!!

Great video and extremely helpful. Some things you mentioned I was trying decide if good to start with or do later. Thanks for clarifying.
yess! I wanted to include the things I was a little cloudy about in the beginning as well!
Wow thanks! ❤️
Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge and experiences. Im a full time crane operator but im wanting to open a business for basically a side hustle and get my name out there. I wanted to ask you if you can maybe give me more insight on how can i dress up my candles, such as have chunks of fruit or things that will catch peoples eye?
Great video and tips! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you this was definitely helpful

This is great information! I just cancelled the website I just joined and will sign up this weekend with Zyro! Thank you so much!!
Glad it was helpful and yess so happy you're joining Zyro! Great tools and a better cost for us small business owners
I'm so Thankful for you. You're really helping me and others launch careers ! God is going to bless you even more 🙏🏽❤ Thank you 😊 When does the Promo code expire?
It does not expire
@@bossvision Awesome 😊
Lmaoooo not me up at 2:10 and working and doing inventory 😂😂😂😂
the dedication is real lol
@@bossvision gurrllllll I so tired cuz why didn’t I start keeping track of inventory in the beginning…. I brought so much stuff and now having to itemize craftybase…. I just wanna cry 🥲🤣😂🤣
Great information thank you.
Aw so happy that it was helpful!!!
Good information
Great informative video. You speak about selling products *wholesale* to vendors. It would be nice if you created another video on how to price products to stores. Like by percent%. Thanks for sharing.
Great suggestion! Will do!!!
I'm so glad you mentioned copying the same name as the scent to the candle. That's always puzzled me, more of being authentic than the legalities but the legal reason is all that I would need anyways
me too!! I found out after a few months when a few other candle business owners warned me💞
Awesome tips
thank you!!!
Hey! Love your videos! Is this a full time job for you now? I’m a college student and I’m debating if I should do hair or start a candle business right now…
Such an informative video, it answered a lot of questions I was actually just thinking about!! As far as an EIN and starting a website, should you wait until you’re past the testing phase and have sold a certain number of candles? A know things can get costly if your trying to do everything upfront/at the very beginning of your business. Thanks for the video!!
I got my LLC , EIN, and Dunn& Bradstreet and I hadn’t made my first candle. When I knew that making candles would be my business I took care of that right away.
you need an EIN before selling. you have to pay taxes on any money you make.
Yay im a solo prop... And i got my ein.. Im soo excited to. Try a new buz idea. If this doesent work for me i have a few other ideas.. But id like to do this
Live question- Do you still use zyro for your website?
This was super helpful!!❤️
I’m a new small business and I’m struggling making sure I have all of my legal things in order, would you have any advice, along with trademarking my name that could help when it comes to creating an online business with zyro? Also I was looking at Pirate Ship and didn’t see zyro as one that could connect to them with shipping, would you recommend a different label shipping source?
Thank you 🙏🏽 ❤️
Oh that’s a very good point. If Zyro doesn’t connect with Pirate Ship then they’re a no go for me because Pirate Ship is the cheapest and best way to ship heavier items such as candles.
Thank you for sharing all the information. I didn’t know about the trademark. I was told by my county not to do a “doing business as” because someone can take my name, but better to do LLC, which I did. I need to look into trademarking. Also, I was going to go with Shopify with my Domain, but I decided on Etsy for now. But it seem Shopify still have my domain listed even as I cancelled. How can I make sure they do t have it?
LLC is best because it will protect you from lawsuits. They’re easy to do, usually takes about 15 minutes online with your Secretary of State. Trademarks are complicated and not necessary unless you’re 100% set on your name and logo. You can’t make changes to an existing trademark. If you changed your mind you would need to file a new trademark. They’re not cheap and the process is complicated. Also if you mess up and your application I rejected you don’t get your money back.
@@HowToLymarie Oh okay. Thanks for the information.
Video my work is hard must I have two camera?
These are the best videos I have seen you need to do a class I be would sign up and pay
Aw you’re so sweet
Does Zyro figure in best shipping cost?
no I'd go for Shopify now!
Does anyone know how to get the inventory/ budget template?
