Here's Some Of The Questions We Receive Most Often In Our Candle Business

Q. What Are You Looking For In A Team Partner To Mentor?

A. I am looking for team players who are serious about their business, and are willing to follow what has been proven to work.I teach what I do because I have used it, tested it, and been successful with it. Everything I teach is what I have done to build my business for eleven years online. Let's work together to help you achieve your own personal financial goals!

Q.Why this company? What's unique about the product?

A. Our Gourmet Candle business offers a very different approach to a home based business. There are three very distinct ways to earn a very lucrative income - retail, fundraisers and build an organization or what is typically called a downline. I will teach you how to combine all three for maximum profits. The product line is unique and growing. We currently offer an incredible line of Alternative Wax candles, Gourmet Soy Bath Bars, Simmer Pots and Melts, and other exciting products. This is a product and a business that appeals to men and women, young and old and virtually everyone in between!

Q. How much will it cost me to get started?

A. Basic cost is, $39.95 to get started and $39.95 a month, plus shipping. That satisfies your monthly commitment and gives you one 16 oz jar, one dozen votives and one Gourmet Bar, and our company website each month. We call this our Candle Of The Month program. Most MLM companies have what’s called an Autoship or Automatic Delivery Program to qualify you for commissions. Our COTM does even more than that. You can actually retail the products in your COTM and make your money back every month and your company website back office system is included!

Most companies charge you for a website system like ours AND you have products that are not retailable! So in essence you end up being just a wholesale buyer.

To REALLY be successful, here’s what we recommend….

First, if you are serious about building a successful business order our Fast Start Pack, with everything you will need to successfully launch your business and put cash in your pocket from day one! The more you know, the more you can present. And, this is a smell and sell business. Simply opening up the lids will produce sales for you. Your cost - $399.90, and you save $100.

Q. How much money can I make?

A. That depends on you really. By following the system we teach exactly the sky is the limit. We can customize a business plan that works for you and your situation. My belief is that in the next few years, especially as new products come out and as people become more and more aware of the benefits of an alternative wax candles, you will see many six figure income earners with our business team. Will you be one of them?

Q. How soon can I make money?

A. Again, that depends on you. Many people make money their very first day by just calling a few friends and letting them simply smell the candles. This is where your sampler pack is SO important. If you are coachable, we will work together to help you retail, set up a few fundraisers and begin to sponsor others your very first month. The question really is "How much do you want to make your first month?"

Q. How do I just go ahead and get started now?

A. First, be sure you are committed to wanting more in your life and working with a team committed to getting more! Then, complete the candle signup form here If possible, get started with our Fast Start Pack and have everything you need to make money from day one. If this is not an option, make sure you order the Candle of the Month AND at least our sampler case. Don't forget about brochures, postcards and door hangers.

Then, the real fun begins. We will get you started with "Your Blueprint For Success", our team step 1 training packet. And, our partnership will get started.

Q. How do I build my candle business?

A. We have a system that will work for anyone - the part timer, full timer, those who love to recruit others and those who don't.

The key to building your business is to find what works best for you, put your nose to the grindstone and focus on your plan. Our training will teach you how to find what will work for you. Our team focuses on several areas for maximum profits. We retail the candles, set up and monitor fundraisers, do craft booths and recruit others to the team. These retailing and fundraising efforts always produce interested prospects.

Retailing can be done through - friends, family, open houses, home parties, retail stores, craft shows and boutiques, county fairs and street fairs, business expos, while out and about, etc. Fundraisers - sports teams, school PTA's/PTO's, church groups, youth groups, dance studios, non profit organizations, school bands, boy/girl scouts, etc.

Listen to details on how to set these up by calling our recorded line - 732-463-6326, pin 6

Sponsoring Others - this is our specialty, and we will teach you how to sponsor people that come to you and are ready to start a business.

Q. How can I find leads?

A. People who will be interested in your business are everywhere. And, we prefer to work only with people who are interested and come to us. We believe that a big reason that many people are not successful in MLM is because they are not talking to the right people. Working with leads and people that find us online is a much more desirable way to do business.

We offer a team lead coop of candle specific business seekers. More details on that are available. We also offer other advertising coops that are available to team members to plug into.

Beyond that, if you are interested, we have a 4 week training system that will teach you how to build a presence online, with a personal website, much like this one. That's after we get your step 1 business started and profitable. You're going to love it!

We'll teach you how to get a site like this.

Q. Will you teach me how to build my candle business online?

A. YES! That’s how I’ve built my business for eleven years. For you to be successful online, you must take things step by step, which consists of working with leads, and our other aspects of building the business. This is to ensure your success. Remember Rome was not built in a day! There’s no elevator to success, you really must take the STEPS to get to the top!

Successfully building a business online requires a personal website. You can have one just like this in no time. There’s a training guide to walk you through it step by step.

Q. What if I only have 5 - 10 hours a week to work my business?

A. According to the Direct Selling Association 90% of the people who start an MLM home business do so part time. Jim Rohn's famous saying is "I'm working full-time at my job and part-time on my fortune". It's not quantity of time that matters, its quality of time. Reading and sending jokes on emails, spending to much time in online forums, shuffling papers on your desk, won't produce one red cent for you. So, as long as you are willing to make that 5-10 hours productive, focused time, you can have a successful business. Instead of buying and selling we’ll teach you how to sell and buy!

We'll work together to map out a working business plan that fits you! All it’s going to take is some time, determination and ingenuity on your part! After all what else are you going to be doing? Why not work full time on your job while you work part time on your fortune?

Q. I don't want to talk to people I know, can I still be successful with this candle business?

A. Yes, you can. we’ve done it. Although we encourage you to at least let your friends, family and others know about your new business and let them smell the candles. You do not have to tell them about the business side, or even ask them to buy anything. Simply tell them what you are doing and ask if they have any ideas. Personally, many of us share the products with friends and family, but only talk to them about the business if they come to us and ask.

Q. My spouse does not support me; can I still build a successful business?

A. Yes, in most cases. If your spouse is adamantly opposed, you may want to reconsider starting any business. However, if your spouse is just skeptical, and does not want any personal involvement, that's okay. It will be important that you make good use of your available time and resources and keep your "why" for doing this business planted firmly in front of you.

Speak to your spouse and simply ask him/her to please support you to the extent that he/she respects your decision, does not belittle you, and set up some guidelines that you are both comfortable with for business hours, etc. And, then make sure you respect these guidelines.

Make it a point to earn a profit as quickly as possible and keep it growing. This usually changes the spouse from skeptical to okay, to down right excited. The great thing is we have a product that you can actually retail and begin to put cash in your pocket from day one and that’s something that will make any spouse a happy camper!

Q. I have been in MLM before and have not had success. Why will this candle business work for me?

A. Will it work for you? Maybe and maybe not. We can't promise you that it will work for you, but we do know about the commitment we will make to you. First, what reasons do you believe were the cause of your previous lack of success? What are you going to do differently now than you did then? How committed are you to achieving your plans? Are you coachable? Are you willing to work closely with our team and follow a system for success?

If you get clear on what you do want, let go of what has happened in the past, and focus on your future. Remember your fortune is in your future!

Q. I have small children; can I still build a business?

A. My son was 3 when I started my business in November, 1996. He’s 15 now. Can you build your business with small children? Yes of course! Being at home with our children is why many of us start a business like this! Because of the time I put in during those early days he’s been able to play Level 1 tennis for the Austin Tennis Academy! Something he would not have the opportunity to do if not for my Network Marketing income!

Q. What if I am in another program, can I work both at the same time or should I leave that one and join yours

A. First, that really depends on your situation. If you're already in a main program with a large downline, and are happy, then it's probably best to stay where you are. I offer all types of tools and business resources, training classes, and coaching.

Building multiple MLM companies at the same time can be tough if you are very new to the industry and have not really started earning an income with one yet. We will teach you how to earn multiple streams of income from referral sources which we call affiliate income by self-funding some of your business expenses.

Second, visit my business resources page and see what might be a fit for you!

Now if you're not in another program, or if you're in one that isn't working out the way you'd expected, then we can talk about you joining our business to see if what we're doing would be a fit for you. Many of us have found that this is a business that complements other programs so I'd be happy to consult with you about some options.
