For a long time I thought if I could just make a good enough candle, the rest would figure itself out.

It didn’t.

I had the candles down. What I didn’t have was any clue how to get into stores, keep orders coming in, or get people to actually find us.

That part is what nobody teaches you. And it’s the part that almost made me quit more than once.

We eventually figured it out. But we did it the slow, lonely way, and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.

So we built the thing we wish we had back then. It’s called the Inner Circle.

It’s for makers who are ready to stop guessing and start running this like a real business. You get weekly office hours with us, monthly workshops, hot seat coaching, and a group of makers who actually get what you’re going through.

The doors are only open right now through this weekend. Then they close.

If you want in, comment ‘Inner Circle’ below and I’ll send you all the details.

Would love to have you in the room.

Real questions posted inside the Inner Circle last month:

“How do I go from local boutiques to bigger accounts like airports, hotels, or a chain?”

“Corporate gifting: do I charge up front, or take a deposit?”

“Who do I even contact at a company about team-building events?”

“What actually goes in a line sheet?”

“Just got offered a market spot in a few weeks and I’m not ready. Do I take it?”

Not one of those is about how to make a candle. 🕯️

That’s the business behind the candle, and it’s the part nobody warns you about.

Doors are open through Saturday. Then it’s October.

It’s so much easier to grow your candle business by maximizing how much someone spends rather than finding new customers. Bundles is one way to do this and members inside the Inner Circle are doing this right now to grow their business. Come grow with us.

Candle Business Tips

I had no idea how many comments I would get asking where I get these sign stands at. So I put them on our free candle business Supply and Tools Checklist. They are now added at the bottom of page 6.

I spent way too long thinking a better candle was the answer. It was not.

The candle was already good. What I was missing was everything around it.

Knowing which numbers actually mattered. Knowing where to spend my time when there was more to do than hours in the day. Knowing when to say no to an order, when to hire help, when to stop making new scents and start selling the ones I had.

Nobody teaches you that part. You just make candles and hope the business figures itself out.
It does not. You have to build it on purpose.

That took me years to piece together on my own, and most of it I learned by getting it wrong first.

The Inner Circle is where I hand that over so you do not have to take the long road.

Doors open the 1st through the 5th.

Comment ‘Inner Circle’ and I will send you the details to get in.

Candle Business Tips | Ep. 3

We are always going to be working on improving our candle business. That will never end. The job is never done. So finding a balance between working and living is important.

Save and share this as a reminder to take that day off, enjoy that time outside of working as well.

We charge $8 more for a candle that’s actually smaller inside.

The difference is the packaging, and it costs us about 40 cents. In this week’s episode I break down how we get a premium look without wrecking the margin.

I also answered four other questions from makers:
1. How to go from making candles as gifts to actually selling them
2. How often you really need to retest a formula
3. How to launch and grow a subscription box
4. What to know about wood vessels and fire safety

Want the full episode? Comment the word WATCH and I’ll send it right to your DMs.
