Candle Business = Residual Income = Leadership

Candle Business = Residual Income = Leadership


"You can have anything you want; if you help enough people get what they want!" Zig Ziglar

Candle Coach

What IS a Candle Coach? Well, that's what I call myself... I've been in the candle industry since 2004 and I offer skills and insight for the candle industry as a whole.

Team Beginnings

Back in 2004 a couple of people unexpectely joined my team. I was not marketing the business so it was quite a surprise. I thought 'This is awesome! Ack! Now what?' I had no clue where to begin or how to help those people with their candle businesses. The following month I got a check in the mail. Huh?

My 'Ah ha' Moment

All of a sudden all my years dabbling in Network Marketing made sense, a TEAM! That is the key to a residual income. I bring people into the company who have the same goals as me, and I help them reach their goals, and then I get rewarded by earning a residual income from helping them as well as their efforts. I realized if I helped people succeed, it helped me succeed too. Finally the light bulb went off!

Residual Income

I ran my candle business very part time, just about 5 to 10 hours per week. I wanted to build a team and at first my goal was to get enough residual income to pay for my monthly sales requirement. So I did the math and mapped out what I needed to reach that goal.

Leadership

Leadership is setting an example and paving a path to help others on your team to grow and glow. I've stepped up to the plate to help my team members succeed. It takes 2 to be a leader. Myself, and a team member who is ready and willing to accept the adventure of becoming successful!



Are YOU ready to be a Leader?

Why can't I smell my candle?

Why can't I smell my candle?

As a manufacturer of over 100 true-to-life aromas sometimes our distributors or customers will contact us and say..

  • "Why can't I smell my candle?"
  • "When I light my candle there is no scent throw..."
  • "Everyone but ME can smell this scent..."

This syndrome is sometimes called 'candle nose', or nasal desensitization. It affects people in different ways. Some people may have a favorite scent they always burn and eventually get so used to it they can no longer smell it. When it comes to OUR candles, be aware it's not the candle, it's the NOSE!

Our candles are maximum scented, meaning we clean burning waxes that hold the highest percentage of quality fragrances available. The aromas we use are premium blends of essential oils and the highest quality fragrance oils ~ only the BEST is in our candles!

Scent Detection

Some people simply cannot smell certain scents, i.e. baked goods, fruits, florals or herbals. They may have something in their system that just makes it so they cannot 'detect' certain notes in a candle blend thus making them feel they cannot 'smell' the candle. For instance most candles are a combination of scents consisting of a top note, middle note and bottom note. The 3 'note' are a musical nasal blend that creates the 'aroma'. Sometimes if someone's nose cannot detect one of these 'notes' the scent becomes void and they cannot smell it at all! This is why there may be 3 people smelling the exact same candle: person 1 loves the candle, person 2 thinks the candle is way too strong, and person 3 can hardly smell the aroma at all.

Recommendation: Find the scent that works for YOUR nose!

Burning Candles or Wax Melts

Our fabulous jar candles last for weeks, so sometimes we simply get so 'used' to the smell that we can no longer detect it. You may notice you have the candle burning and think the smell has gone away. Then you go away for the weekend and when you come home all you smell is the candle... You gave your nose a 'break' and then it recognized the aroma again!

Whatever your scent...

...we have something to dazzle your nose with over 100 true to life aromas to choose from. You can browse our jars, melts and votives; botanical body products, and more.

As a candle conesseur...

...I've been burning candles for years, called a candle 'freak' I've accepted the title with a smug grin. When I came across these candles they won my nose, and my heart. I dumped ever other single candle I had stored away and became a distributor for THIS company! It truly was that I had tried the 'rest' and then found the 'best'!

If you love candles too...

...you can become a distributor for amazing discounts and the potential to make huge profits reselling the candles. Fill out the short email form in the column to the site to get info on distributorship now and visit my website to find out more about me and my business!

Have an ENLIGHTENED Day!
