jldorrington Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Just out of curiosity, if "tart" can't be used then why does Wal-Mart use it on their brand of wax melts? I know I've seen that wording on a few other brands available in stores as well, I just can't remember where.Not that it's a big deal to me or anything, I was just interested because it seems that every time someone mentions using "tart" on a site they get tore up over it.honestly i'm don't get the whole yank** having a trademark on 'tart' but should the do i don't want them coming after me for using it. but as far as walmart i don't even think a candle company as big as them could touch walmart. but if it was me the could just grind me right into the ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridith Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 looks like it is still up to meIt is still up but when you click on any links, you just get a page welcoming you to the future home of southern-scents and ads. You can't purchase from there. SS - Good to know you took the advice you were given and slowed down. In the long run, it is what is best.

SunshineSundries Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 This whole thread is why *I* haven't opened my supply side up yet! I barely have my retail/wholesale side ready! You need to take your time and do things right - no matter what it is your doing... Just because you know how to run one kind of business doesn't mean you know how to run them all. I used to sell P@rtyL!te candles but that didn't mean when I first started out that I knew how to *make* a candle. Now that I've been into candle making for four years, now I feel I could do a supply side (very VERY small supply side). But first things first, I have to get my retail/wholesale site running smoothly (does this ever happen?) before I start *another* website for my supplies. And before I start my supply side, I'm going to do even more research (and pick a few brains of suppliers I know ) on all the products I would be selling. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is a good business.JMHOLife & Light!Tish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridith Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 I tried it again and got a page for "user authentication" where I was asked for a user name and password. I clicked on "shop" and once again got that page announcing future home of SS? When I clicked on "shop' again, I got the authentication pop up again. Hmmm???? If she is working on it like she says, and all things IMO point to that, I think that is a good thing. Good for her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southern.scents Posted January 14, 2007 Author Share Posted January 14, 2007 I posted the, im gonna slow down before I began tearing it down. The shoping part will close tonight at 12. Yes, i was allowed to use the pics by gelluminations. I will work on the site for a few months to a year, which is what it needs and then hopefully everyone might give me a second chance at things. Everything that I have told you all has been the truth, it just all came out jumbled and the wrong way. I have tested and studied for months and months , i have made candles and given them away and test burned more than you could think, well maybe not but close. Thanks for all your help and advice.

logcabinmomma Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 southernscents,The thing is we ALL learn things on here everyday- I think it's great you've decided to slow down and work on everything methodically, thinking it all through. You'll have that much more staying power. Things that start fast tend to finish pretty fast too.Don't feel like you have to run away for a year and come back with all your ducks in a row. Feel free to post and ask honest questions as someone building a developing product- just not someone selling a developing product! I can't tell you how many questions I HAVEN'T asked because I used that neat "search" feature up near the top of the screen. Use it, it's great!Looking forward to seeing you gain wisdom and experience, not just as a chandler, but as a FUTURE business person!-Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
