Hi, guess what?? I got candles as a gift this year and not our brand smileys/smiley36.gif. I guess I have to do a better job with my warm market at explaining why I love Mia Bella candles only.
(They said it was bought before I started this biz.)

Hi Debra!smileys/smiley4.gif
Yikes!
You might want toshow the person who gave you "the other candle" the difference of how Mia Bella candles burn and how theirs burn.
I gave a great friend of mine two gorgeous votive holders with beaded little lampshades. She's a teacher and told me that at her school, they all exchanged gifts. Guess what she received? Votives from a direct sales company.
I've been giving her our clean burning gourmet MB candles, as gifts, for the past year.
Guess what SHE TOLD ME?
SHE noticed a huge difference in how they look, their size, their texture and how they burn! She said she is a Mia Bella addict now.
So, you may want to use this to educate your warm market.
It can be a great opportunity for YOU and you can create some more devoted Mia Bella lovers!smileys/smiley2.gif
