Scented Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Just have to find ways to get a fully tested product out there that you have confidence in selling and that will make an appeal to your customer base (saying you've established what you want your target market to be.) There are lots of candlemakers out there and places to buy candles cheaply or expensively (Wal-Mart to Yankee). My suggestion would be to figure out what will set you apart from these places and then figure out your marketing tools and avenues, such as craft shows, businesses in town etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
