Candle making has been coming along well. Really haven't stopped making them. Since I made them for the dance team, I have been getting orders. I made several candles for
Passion Works Dance Academy and Fort Service Learning's Dance Team, thank you Ms. Tamela Thompson. I do appreciate you trusting in Betty's Only A Candle Company. From those order, I am making candles for a wedding. Floaters, potpourri burners, and votives in navy and gold. I'm excited about this wedding, this is the first once since I made them for a friend so many years ago. Then the other day, a friend contacted me because she burned the ones I gave her as a gift, she purchased some too. I also was contacted via email because I posted some on
Craigs List. She's interesed in Betty's Only A Candle Company and lives close by. Her interest are in tarts, I make the candle burner's, will check to see if they are the same.
My mother helps me too, she's always getting some from me for gifts and she gets orders too. For that I'm very appreciative.
Since I've been basically making orders, I haven't been just making candles. You know the ones that are in no specific design just something that came together. I truly love to make candles like that, the colors don't match and the fragrance doesn't necessarily do with the colors. I love it! She also asked about me having a boothe which I have never done that ever. So there are somethings that need to be addressed. I did make a banner for that purpose, but have yet to use it. Making a brochure is the next thing and continuing to make beautiful, fragrant, hand crafted candles. Or just printing the one that I have.
Things are moving in the right direction for Betty's Only, now just to be more open with the product. Push my Etsy site and continue to make the product better. It seems, promotion is the key. Make it consistent. There are things that I need in order to do better:
Bags with logo
business cards
brochure
do a craft show, have enough candles all different
promote
