Thank you for sharing this information. You'd be surprised how many people wont share what they know to help someone else. Thanks again. I'm more than likely going to use this for my website. It seems fairly easy
Thank you so much for generously sharing your knowledge, wisdom, expertise. Sooooooo much appreciate all your extraordinary educational videos. Always incredibly helpful. Mucho Gracias
Thank you soo much, I am learning great things from you. This is has been my dream and I love making things. Really just getting it together and stopping the fear factor that I been having because there are soo many people that are creative. I know it will be a process but with your videos they are helping me along the way. You are an awesome person and thank you for being that person who don't mind sharing their craft and helping others to become business savvy.
Jeff standley Can you please do a video on packaging candle orders? What boxes you use? Delivery service? Do you actually go to the post office? Thank you!!!
Standley Handcrafted - Do you have a video showing soy wax with color dye added, without it ruining the candle? I'm trying to use just the soy wax but need true more bold than pastel colors? Thanks!
Great video! Very useful info. I subscribed because i would love to see more videos like this. I'm confident that I could build my website now! It actually seems easy! Does this platform offer business reporting like sales, income tax info, sales tax reporting, etc? It's the "business" side that's seems so daunting to me. Thank you.
Squarespace offers a lot of analytics, Paypal and the other service Stripe will offer all the tax information. It's really nice and simple, especially for beginners.
I really appreciate your videos; they are so helpful. I am in the process of starting my own website and getting into craft fairs/wholesale this coming year. My last hurdle is insurance. Do you have any advice or insight on picking the right insurance?
Can you do ounces instead of pounds for the item weight? I am having a huge problem finding a site that allows variations with different weights. Most of my items are under 1 pound. This site looks so much easier to navigate than many out there.
I already have a Cristian themed shopify store that I'm still setting up. I'm starting with t shirts and eventually I want to sell candles and skincare. Can the store's name be different from the name on the candles? I'll just put the name of the website on the labels.
Hello I’m about open my own website shop, moving away from Etsy. Would recommend Shopify? What is the difference between Shopify and Squarespace? I have an reasonable doing well pet accessories shop on Etsy, would you think it’s ok to add candles to my existing pet shop since I already have customers? Thanks .
john Camacho Candles definitely require more care during summer months. Some waxes are so much softer, like 4627 comfort blend, and can definitely melt along the way. I’ve had one customer mention that a candle melted slightly during July.
Dude your videos are awesome and i respect you very much for helping people to start a bussines, but you should update your websites design, it looks dated and out of place(just my two cents)
Jeff, what would we do without you? Thank you for all the detailed videos!
I appreciate that!
Hello! Would you recommend getting an LLC for selling candles?

Do you have a video on shipping costs and how to keep it affordable ?
BeatriceSteinberg I don’t have one yet but I’ve been putting one together. I’ll have it ready soon.

I use straight 6006, it's great
Hello! Thank you so much for all the usefull information. Can I please ask you how did you make your logo?Is there another website to make it?

Does square space allow you to set up categories. Ie candles wax melts soaps etc?
have you updated your training video on website design?
Not yet butI will be soon. I just updated and switched web providers.
Can you do ounces instead of pounds for the item weight? I am having a huge problem finding a site that allows variations with different weights. Most of my items are under 1 pound. This site looks so much easier to navigate than many out there.

Looking for part 2
I will try and get it out soon

I have an reasonable doing well pet accessories shop on Etsy, would you think it’s ok to add candles to my existing pet shop since I already have customers? Thanks .
Does squarespace have a free domain too with it?
Stanley thank you for your video. I noticed that you now use Shopify. How do you handle payments with them?
...following Lili's question
same!
Do you have to have a business license to sell home made candles.
👍😉
i have read that candles melt during shipping in hot summer months. do you have this problem?
john Camacho Candles definitely require more care during summer months. Some waxes are so much softer, like 4627 comfort blend, and can definitely melt along the way.
I’ve had one customer mention that a candle melted slightly during July.
thanks, what wax you would recommend in summer months?
Harder paraffins for sure and the parsoy 6006 works really well. But even the 6006 can melt a little during the 100 degree days.
Jeff Standley So you can't connect you bank account to PayPal like you do stripe? How will I get my funds in my business account then?
...following R. Outler's question
was the weight per piece?
Donnetta Agnew I add the weight of the candle or product to any new listing that I do.
What is the shipping like on Squarespace?
I use Paypal for shipping. I don't believe Squarespace has a shipping option. Not that I have seen anyway
How about Etsy? I used to sell on Etsy for my handmade soap.
I need to dive further into Etsy, it's a great option
i,m 62 and want to supplement my income
can i sell candles on ebay and esty?
Dude your videos are awesome and i respect you very much for helping people to start a bussines, but you should update your websites design, it looks dated and out of place(just my two cents)
