Hey ladies!


I am not a Mia Bella rep, but I have a couple of questions about your business.


1. Are your candles smokeless and dripless as well as clean burning?


2. I see you will have online ordering soon. Do you know how they will be shipped? UPS, FedEx, USPS?


3. Do you know what your shipping rates will be?





Please pm me with the answers if you can. I am interested in possible having a Mia Bella rep join a group that I have starting on April 1. It will be a great way for you to spotlight your new Online Ordering!!!

Hi Stephanie!



I sent you a PM. I am not sure what carrier we will be using, or
exactly what the shipping charges will be. I'll check on that, if
someone doesn't have the answer here soon!



Thanks for considering Mia Bella as an addition to your group!

Hello Stephanie,


I know you said, "ladies" butI am a Mia Bella rep as well. :-) I was curious what kind of group you are starting. We have a a couple different groups here in Montana that we do things together with.


One is a professional networking group, BNI, thatI highly recommend because we sell candles at practically every meeting, as well as making appointments to drop by their offices. At the upcoming meetings we'll be promoting the candles for bosses to buy their secretaries on Secretary's Day.


The second is a group of friends that represent different MLM businesses. Mary kay, Pampered Chef, Avon, Mia Bella, etc. There are a few others that participate from time to time. We have done some Open House type things together. They can be lots of fun (if only to see the other reps newest products!!) I say this because my wife LOVES Pampered Chef. I think we have every "stone" cooking pan and pizza cooker thingy they make. <grin>Gramma just got a new pizza cutter and I just discovered the tuna can strainer last night, it ROCKS!!


Anyway, I'd be glad to help in any way even if it's only telling other reps how productive such associations can be. All the Best!!

Sorry Silverback!!


Didn't mean to be offend!! I will try not to be so exclusive next time, I guess it was just habit.


The group is a Yahoo! Group, so it's kind of like what you are doing except it's online. It's really fun hearing about others' companies and their latest products!! We are ordering from someone else in the group every month, so hopefully someday I will have all of the products from Mia Bella!!


It's good to hear that you and your wife are huge PC fans!! I think once most people try our stuff they are hooked. That's how I got into this business in the first place. My DH loves PC as much as I do. He is dying to get the new Executive Cookware!! :)


Okay before this turns into PC commercial, thanks for the boost of confidence about networking and purchasing from other DS companies!!

Not a problem pamperedgirl,


No offense taken! This is a WAHM board, after all. I feel that my presence here is a privilege and I try to treat it as such.


My wife andI are firm believers in supporting our friends' Network Marketing businesses. They are pursuing the same end we are and we admire and respect and support that. We'd buy from them if they opened a regular store so why not buy from their virtual stores? :-)


I wish you great success. You do have exceptional products!!collin ~
