Hi everybody! I've been reading a lot of the posts here and they are very informative. I'm a little concerned with the COTM club, although if I understand correctly you can quit at any time. The other thing is online sales. Is this something that will happen anytime soon? I think that would be a big benefit for customers to be able to order directly from a rep's website. But that's just me. I like to order online. I love candles and have only heard good things about Mia Bella and I'm really itching to try one. I appreciate any information.


Thanks!!

Hi Dina!smileys/smiley17.gif


I've worked very successfully at building a wonderful business with Mia Bella for two years. I'd love to work with you and show you what benefits me and my team have to offer, including superior training, both offline and online and very hands on fun support.


I look forward to meeting you and brainstorming with you.


You will love the Candle of the Month Club, BELIEVE ME! It's addictive. But you can certainly cancel it at anytime. Mia Bella doesn't play games with people.smileys/smiley32.gif


We don't have online ordering yet, but people can order through the company directly WHOLESALE when they join the Candle of the Month Club..smileys/smiley2.gif

Hi Dina,



I think they are working on online ordering. Summer time is what I have
heard. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. :) When I was trying to
make my decision, I just decided to join COTM and try the jar, 12
votives, and Bella Bar at the discount instead of buying 1 at retail. I
knew I could cancel anytime. I learned that I love not only the
candles, but the Bella Bar, too! I've always been a bodywash person,
but I LOVE our bars!



Good luck in your decision. I know you'll love Mia Bella!

Jennifer

Hi Dina,

I think that that COTM is actually an ingenious business tool! It serves
several purposes and turns out to be very cost effective.

First, it gives distributors the opportunity to experience and share with
their customers the new scent that is introduced every month in a very
cost effective package- without having to order a whole case of jars or
think about placing the order every month.

Second, whether you choose to focus on the retail aspect of the
business or one of the other options we have for making money, the
COTM materials are wonderful business tools for marketing and
promoting our business. The votives can be given out as complimentary
gifts to business partners, customers, or potential clients. Many of us
grate them up and use them for scent samples with our brochures and
business cards. I like to chop some of them into quarters and use them
in my melt warmer so I don't burn all of my jar candles. And of course
the obvious, retailing them! Another plus to keep in mind is that you will
*always* have last minute gifts on hand, and at wholesale rate you'll
probably wind up saving money. (Christmas was easy AND less expensive
for us this year.)Who doesn't love a great smelling candle or luscious
bar of yummy soy soap as a gift?

No matter how you use the COTM votives and other items, when you are
not retailing them, even if you use them as gifts or for yourself, they
become a tax deduction. How ELSE can you claim a deduction for burning
delicious gourmet candles?!

Third, when you retail the products from the COTM shipment at the
MSRP, it actually covers the cost of your COTM with about $20 profit left
over. If you plan to focus on the Residual Income aspect of our program,
keep in mind that once you personally sponsor 10 business partners,
whether they retail anything or not, their COTM cost alone will cover the
cost of your COTM. In less than 3 months I was able to build my team to
the point where I now cover the cost of my COTM and have profit left over
just from the commission of my downlines' monthly COTM membership.

Lastly, if you investigate other home business distributor opportunities
that are close to the income potential that SS offers, it is not uncommon
to have an autoship that is $100, $200 or more per month. SS has
worked hard to create a program that is accessable for anyone who wants
to start a home based business. And the best part of all is that there's no
risk involved- if you receive your first shipment and you don't have
people swarming you with orders (which is usually the case- just ask our
forum!) then you can email them and cancel your COTM subscription
immediately.

I think the best thing to do if you're not sure but you think you may be
interested and you are a candle lover who can afford a one-time
investment of $40 on a great shipment of products and a business
website is to just give it a try for one month.

Experience the one of a kind Sweet Orange & Chili Pepper fragrance, light
your jar candle, and discover how clean burning, long lasting, and richly
scented our candles are for yourself. Put your Bella Bar in the soap holder
in the bathroom and shower with it. Fall in love with the products!

Then share the votives with your candle loving friends and family- get
their response to the product. If you -and they- don't find that these are
the best smelling, best burning, most amazing candles you've ever
experienced, then send that email to the company, and keep searching
for the right opportunity.

Chances are, however, you'll be contacting your Sponsor a day or two
after getting your COTM and asking her to help you place an order for
your first case of jars because everyone who smells the votives places an
order.smileys/smiley2.gif

Congratulations on your decision to become your own boss. Searching
for the perfect home business is so exciting! Enjoy the process.

Sincerely,
--KittEdited by: UNcommonScents

Wow!! Great post, Kitt.
I really like the way you put things.

bearyfun (Dina),
Great questions!! Just like you're "itching" to try a Mia
Bella candle I'm "itchin'" for the on-line sales to start
up. I think that is the next phase in the evolution of
this company and it's opportunity.

The one thing I've seen over the last couple of years,
that I really like, is that the company doesn't RUSH
things just to have them. When it becomes available
I am confident that it will be first class.

Glad to have you on board smileys/smiley1.gifCollin
