chauntelle Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 if you look through the business section theres loads of info. rules are different in different countries and areas so maybe if you give a little more info about that someone might be kind enough to point you in the direction of a link or two.

ShelleyBean Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 First and foremost, insurance. Can't stress that enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agape23 Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 okay so ive been researching for over an hour now and im still trying to find out about the insurance, registration, and liscensing. Theres info in the business-side-of-things- but nothing that really just flat out answers the question.I want to sell to family, friends, and co-workers. I make the candles at home.It sounds like insurance is hard to get. and it takes awhile. Well why?Does anyone have a link to help me out here?

judyvega Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 It really all varies by state. Call and find out what the rules/laws are for where you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharig Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 It looks like you are pretty new to candle making. Just wanted to let you know to make sure you test, test, test, and yes, test some more. I've been making for almost 22 months now, and still testing. It's a process that never ends. Selling candles to anyone, even friends, is a BIG leap. Just make sure to consider everything before you do.I'm sorry to be a party pooper.Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
