This video was super helpful for me. Thank you!

👍❤️

I remember when I first started my candle business in 2017, I thought every single thing had to be perfect! Wrong 🚫 Thinking that way delayed the launch of my site because I’m such a perfectionist. 🙄 I’m here to tell you to just focus on the basics. Everything else will fall into place. It's ok to prepare yourself to an extent but then over-preparing starts to delay your business getting off the ground, that's when you gotta take a step back and look at everything as a whole and say - I'm Ready! So if your thing is candles, then do that. Don’t worry about offering all the extras like lip balms, room sprays or whatever else other shops are selling right now. 1- Pace yourself. 2- Sell the sh*t out of the products that you DO have and enjoy the moment. ✨Take this as your sign to Start Now! 👉🏼Let me help you get started: stan.store/UrbanWanderlust/p/book-a-11-call-with-me-gi6ql

Somethimes its great to step away- but not quitting.

Great video, thank you for taking the time to make it!

Hi there, Can I ask what is the name of and where you got the pieces on the wall with the holes? Definitely a need in my space!

wonderful

I just started making wax melts and I’m having so much trouble getting my name out there! I’m 17, so I’m still limited on things. ❤

I miss seeing you running the candle business. Your plants look great.

Gotta just take the leap!!! Put pen to paper and go!

Not many people know this, but… When I first started this business, I didn’t even tell my siblings or closest friends because I was so afraid to fail. I literally started my candle business without telling anyone. I started months of testing in secrecy. 😂 Because my brain was trying to convince me that I was going to fail. 😵‍💫 👉🏼 And nowadays I embrace mistakes & failures like newborn baby - and yes I’m proud of that. Because I realize that I’d much rather try something and fail, than spend my entire life wondering what if. If I had never tried launching my candle brand, I never would have: -Ran a successful candle brand for 6 years -Landed some of the most amazing wholesale clients. -Attended an event at the NY @facebook office! 😱 -Started my own RUclips Channel! 🎥 -Get approached to do a pop-up @westelmwaltwhitman ! Don't let the fear of failure hold you back from anything you want to do in life. 😘 𝐿𝑜𝓋𝑒 𝓎𝒶! 🫶🏼 ✅ Checkout all of my small business resources to get the tools you need to launch your business THIS WEEK! 𝗵𝘁𝘁𝗽𝘀://𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻.𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲/𝗨𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗪𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝘂𝘀𝘁 ✨And don’t forget to grab any of my 𝙊𝙣𝙚-𝙏𝙞𝙢𝙚-𝙊𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙨 for any of my resources during checkout!

Thanks for imfo. Very helpful

Where did you purchase those jars with the copper lids?

I apologize I’ve you mentioned this in another video but please tell me where you got the big wood custom plank with your logo on it. 😩

Etsy is disgusting.

Where are the free downloads? I went to the website and I only see the resources to purchase. Maybe I missed something.

What are the ikea shelves called?

Cartridge price

Where did you get your big wax melting machine?

What wax do you use?

wow! this was so simple and easy to understand, thank youuuuuu

Where did you get the wick setting device?

Love how calm and organized your channel is . Thank you

Not a fan of the molds. I either like wax melts that look like a bar of chocolate and easy to break off and also cut if I want to use like 1.5. Or if it’s gourmand wax melts to look novelty and like the food itself. But preferably breakable chocolate bar.

More about local exposure. Vendor events and such

I love this! Especially the taking break. Not always on social. They say everyday. Nope. That’s not gonna work for me

I am happy I found you! Watching thru all of your vids. I think you mentioned working w/ soy. That is what I am currently doing and I have added 2% beeswax to help. I still have issues w/ cooling and sink holes some. I like the idea of the heat gun but the darkening of the wicks and the swirl that's left behind drives me nuts. Did you have those same issues? Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

I love this! I used to sell houseplants and now I’m doing candles 😆 I love all the philodendrons and anthuriums! I also LOVE Hoya!!! I have one that smells like chocolate when it blooms.

Congrats, good work

Yes one on one is a really good idea, but don’t close the business, you have and are working so hard with it, but yes scale down amount of products, more focus on wholesale is good idea

Judith where has Brooklyn gone

He doing good, not good about your wax melter with wax everywhere

lol peters face “you joking”

Love peters man cave, looks like him and Brooklyn hang out in there a bit

Thankyou for the positive and honest words, I’m just starting, in the testing stage, but you positive words have helped me, I’m in new zealand so no competition for you😊

You’re correct, the market is saturated. But, this is where your marketing comes into play. I’ll host 2 launch parties.mine in July and one in Sep. the July launch will tell me what scents I need to add for September…since my goal is to launch Oct 2024. The one thing I can offer newbies is to stick to a handful of scents and add as your knowledge and customer base grows.

Etsy has done nothing for me. I’ve followed all the advice and I’ve had 10 sales in 7 months

This year lots of candle businesses in the UK are failing, saturation and recession is hitting hard.

Thank you for sharing this!

Love boss women helping other boss women! Thanks for sharing your insights about your experience with making candles. If you ever consider using a print on demand company that makes hand-poured sustainable candles in high-volume production I work for a company that does this. The best part of candle business owners using them is their custom packaging with your business labeling. Let me know if you are interested or if you know of anyone who would benefit from a company that can do it for you.

I just started my candle business and this video was super helpful!💖

I am in the perfection stage, testing, failures, regrouping……. I am not a ♍️, but if you care about the product you are producing…. You try to put out quality while perfecting it as you go. In the mist of continuing to motivate and encourage your self to keep striving and pushing forward.

Hello! Can you please tell me what kind of wax melter you use?

Where did you get your wax from?

I have done etsy for ie 3 yrs. And it has gotten awful and so many gwtting handmade shops shut down for no obvious reasons yet drop shippers and resellers are all over the place. 🫤

So shopify has real humans that you can actually speak to if you have problems??!!?🤯

Stumbled upon your video while I was doing research to start my candle business but I'm doing it from Beijing. Have an idea, if your interested I could help you source & import your materials from China to improve your margins.
