I came across a Scentsations website and noticed the woman
had her own homemade items posted on her site along side
the Mia Bella's.
I thought this was a wonderful thing and was wondering(not
trying to get anyone in trouble!)if this is an ok practice with this
company?

Plus as long as shes not actually showing Mia Bella, as that is against the company policies to sell them on any personal sites.

Im actually thinking it might not be a Scentsations sight. The
site is(now lt me see if I can get this
right)www.scentsationsandgifts.com

She sells candles etc. and Koolaid purses and belts that she
makes herself. Maybe she makes her own candles as well.

Why, oh why, cant I make links clickable!?!? smileys/smiley36.gif

Hi Susan,


If you would like it to be clickable got the the top of the message section and click in the hyperlink there. That should do it for you.

So you can't sell Mia Bella candles on a website? How do you market your business online? That seems to be the wave of the future. I noticed that Partylite Candles can't be marketed online at all. Wow! How do you compete with companies that allowthem to sell their candles on their websites?

Hi Ruthie:


Mia Bella is working on getting our sites up with a shopping cart in the future. If someone wanted to buy a candle from me, they e-mail me their order and I would send it to them. You don't need a shopping cart to take orders.

From what I hear we should have the online ordering available right around the corner. It is nice though to have someone call or email you for an order......makes it much more personalized. There are so many ways to make good money with this company, fundraisers, craft fairs, retail, residual....I do not feel limited at all. It's an amazing business!!!!!! If you want more info feel free to PM me. smileys/smiley2.gif

Hi Ruthie,


As Barb has stated already, they are working on online ordering for the future. But I have found this business to work just as well without it. It make it much more personal. I have gotten to know alot of wonderful people because if the way that have it set up now. You get to know you customers. What they like and don't like! To me it is all about building lasting relationships!smileys/smiley17.gif Which to me means, long life in my business!


Hope that helps!


Many Blessings,


Natalie
