Frequently Asked Questions
So, you have a few questions, right? Good, I hoped that you would. If you don't find the answer(s) you are looking for here, call me or email me and let's get your questions answered.
First, before we go any further, I want to tell you exactly who I am looking for as a partner for my team, and what my criteria is for those whom I coach.
My business and my team is not open to whiners, those looking for a get-rich-quick scheme, or anyone who thinks they can do nothing and collect a pay check. This is the real world.
It takes a very, serious committed effort to make it in a home business, and it can be done. I am living proof.

So, if you think you might be ready and willing to make that commitment, read on. Once you have a clear understanding of how my business works and what will be expected of you, complete this form to have me contact you for a potential partnership interview.
On to the questions.....
Q. What is your criteria for coaching me?
A. I am only willing to spend my valuable time with those who are serious about their business, and are willing to follow the system that I and our team teach. I teach what I do because I have used it, tested it, and been successful with it. Nothing I teach is theory or guesswork. I can only coach you in those methods that I have used myself.
That is not to say that there are not other ways, and that you can't try new ideas. You can! Just understand that I can only teach, coach and advise on what I know.
Q. Why this company? What's unique about the product?
A. Our Natural 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 a downline.
I will teach you how to combine all three for maximum profits.
The product line is unique and growing. We currently offer Gourmet Candles in jars and votives, as well as Gourmet Bath and Body Bars, or handsoap.
This is a product and a business that appeals to men and women, young and old - virtually everyone!
Q. What if I am in another program, should I quit and join you?
A. That really depends on your situation. If you are in a program that isn't taking off the way you'd expected, then we can talk about joining my business to see if it's a fit for you. I have found that this is a business that complements other programs.
Q. How much will it cost me to get started?
A. Bare minimum, $39.95 to get started and $39.95 a month, plus shipping. That satisfies your monthly commitment and gives you a 16 oz Natural Gourmet Jar Candle, a dozen gourmet votives, a Bath and Body Bar plus a personalized Distributor Website.
It is possible to get started at the COTM level, and Your Cost is - $39.95. However...We have something new that distributors are going crazy for!
To REALLY be successful, I am going to detail what I recommend.
First, if you are serious about building a successful business sign up for Candle of the Month and order our Fast Start Pack, with everything you will need to successfully launch your business and put cash in your pocket from day one! Here's what awaits you:
- Scent Sample Bag with up to (80) 1/2oz. sample scents

- Split Dozen Body Bars
- Half Dozen Body Wash Tubes
- Half Dozen Hand Wash
- Dozen Car Air Fresheners
- Pack of Body Wash Samples
- Pack of Brochures
- Collectable Logo Pin (All proceeds from the sales of this pin goes to the Make A Wish Foundation)
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. Retail Value - $489.60
Need another option? Consider ordering a Sampler Pack for $163.35 + s/h which includes 12 jar candles of our top selling fragrances, 2 Body Bars and a tube of our Body Wash.
Second, order 100 - 300 brochures, postcards and door hangers. These are your sales aids, it's a tax write off and you will use these to promote your business. Your Cost - $48 - 144
Third, get aquainted with your Company website by exploring the many links. Remember, this site is included in your distributorship.
Fourth, consider your options for building your business online, too. Details below.
Q. How much money can I make?
A. That depends on you entirely. How? Retail the product, participate in a couple of craft shows, fundraise or sponsor someone into your business.
Some people, like my upline, have made more. She made $2,000 her first month.
The important thing is what you earn will be based on your own efforts. We will customize a business plan that works for you and your interests, strengths and goals.
My belief is that in the next few years, especially as new products come out and as people search for the benefit of clean burning candles, you will see many six figure income earners in our business.
Will you be one of them?
Q. How soon will 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 get started?
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 signup form here. If I am enrolling you, your enroller will be Kelly Wissink and my ID is 1308. Do not put anything in the placement box.
Make sure you order the Candle of the Month AND at least one sampler case. Don't forget about brochures, postcards and door hangers.
Then, the real fun begins. I will get you started with "Training for Success" email series, our team phase 1 training packet. And, our partnership will be launched.
Q. How do I build my business?
A. I 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 forward. My training will teach you how to find what will work for you.
Personally, I focus on all three areas for maximum profits. I retail the candles, I set up and monitor fundraisers and I recruit others to the team. My 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.
Sponsoring Others - I 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. I prefer to work only with people who are interested and come to me.
I believe that a big reason that many people are not successful in Network Marketing is because they aren't talking to the right people.
Working with leads and people that find me online is a much more desirable way to do business. If you are interested, I will teach you a system for developing a presence online, with a personal website, much like this one.
That's after we get your Phase 1 business started and profitable!
Q. Will you teach me how to build my business online?
A. YES! That's my passion, and what I know is that for you to be successful online, you must complete phase 1 first, and our other aspects of building the business. This is to ensure your success.
Successfully building a business online requires a personal website, which is available to you through the team. A site very much like this one. Let's talk about the options.
Q. What if I only have 5 - 10 hours a week to work my business?
A. It's not quantity of time that matters, it's quality of time.
Reading email, reading books and studying the website can seem like business time, but it won't produce one red cent for you.
So, as long as you are willing to make that 5-10 hours productive time, you can have a successful business. I'll teach you how to do that!
Q. I don't want to talk to people I know, can I still be successful with this business?
A. Yes, you can. Although I 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, I share the products with my friends and family, but only talk to them about the business if they come to me 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 to your business, you may want to really think things out. 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. 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.
Q. I have been in Network Marketing before and have not had success. Why will this program work for me?
A. I can't promise you that it will work for you, but I do know about the commitment I will make to you.
First, what reasons do you believe were the cause of your previous lack of success? What will you do differently? How committed are you to achieving what you say you want? Are you coachable? Are you willing to work closely with me and follow a system for success?
If you get clear on what you do want, let go of the past, and focus forward, your past will not dictate your future.
Q. I have small children, can I still build a business?
A. ABSOLUTELY! I have 3 active and growing children, ages 10,8, and 6 and besides homeschooling, we do this business together. You can build a successful business around an active and growing family.
Can you build your business with small children?
Allow your children to empower you in your business, not as an excuse not to build a business. We will teach you how to get them involved in your business if you and they would like to.
