WAHM Forums

I am trying to choose a candle company to go with and I have narrowed it down to Scentsy, Mia Bella, and For Every Home. I would love to hear input from other consultants with each of the companies in hopes of making a final decision by the end of this week. I narrowed it down to the 3 after looking at United States and Canada BBB Consumer and Business Reviews, Reports, Ratings, Complaints and Accredited Business Listings (http://www.bbb.com) and saw the ratings.

Thanks in Advance,
Ash

Hi Ash!
As a Mia Bella distributor and team building specialist since 2007, I'd be happy to answer any of your questions, by PM , e-mail or phone.
You will hear from people in each of the companies explaining the virtues. However it's really what YOU are looking for.

Some thoughts and facts about Mia Bella that may help you make a decision:

Fast growing debt free company with tremendous resources and support in all areas and all the way upline as well as right from the CEO and VP themselves.

A great variety of products from jars to melts to minerals ! We have jar candles , spa candles, coffee table candles, fabulous melts, simmer pots (and this line is growing ) , great plug-ins, soy cleansing bars, hand wash,mineral make up and more. You can market just the candles if you prefer NOT to market the make up.

High mark up on retail.

New advances to the comp plan which is great for team builders- products are 100% commisionable volume.

New points system that earns us FREE products!

Cash bonuses, car bonuses....

.oh, new lower shipping (really good fees)

Pretty catalogs, usually on sale at buy one get one half price

Great start up packages including sampler bag with around 100 samples of all our true to life scents.

Much more

But anyway, we're a great bunch of 10,000+ distributors earning money in fun and very flexible ways and always looking for new friends to come on board.

Please feel free to ask questions!

Best wishes,
Debra

I agree with Debra that it all depends on what YOU want. Do you want to sell home and on-the-go fragrance or do you want to sell lotions, makeup and other things along with home fragrance? I think all of the companies have great ratings and great products. I was in your shoes a couple of years ago and chose the simplicity of a product line and business. Are there any specific questions or concerns that you have? I would be happy to send a sample to you if you haven't tried Scentsy.
Good luck with your decision. I know it's a hard one to make!

Do you have any local consultants you could meet with and discuss their businesses? Have you seen each of the products first hand? Hard decision I know--I chose Scentsy for the simplicity-scents-and product. Was familiar with Home Interior (which I believe is what For Every Home was part of?)_and loved their product..just no desire to sell..and I am sorry I have not hear or seen Mia Bella. Sounds like you are really doing some great reseaching so you should be in a win-win situation which ever you choose. Great time to take one one with the holidays coming.

Hello Ash,
I couldn't have said much more, I think Debra covered Mia Bella beautifully! Just wanted to add that I have been with Mia Bella since August of 06 and have never been happier. It's a great Company to be a part of. As they really listen to it's Distributors and they take very good care of us, always have us in mind in everything they do.

Good luck with your decision. :)

Hi Ash,

I'm a consultant with For Every Home and I absolutely love them! The reasons why is I have been with other companies but was not as passionate about their products, compensation and support as I have been with FEH. The support is awesome! From your upline, main office and even from those who are not your sponsor, we all help each other to be successful. We have consultant incentives each month, great customer specials from the company, ways to earn trips and prizes!

You can earn up to 35% commission on retail sales. Some may think that's not much but if you factor in how great and affordable our products how, the fact that we do not have quotas or minimums to purchase, your website is free with no monthly fee, you're able to advertise anyway you want by using company photos and information, then to me it is all worth it!

If you would like more information, I would be happy to send you a business packet and sample. Just pm me here or you can click my link in my siggie :). I wish you much success in whatever company you choose.

Also Ash, just wanted to let you know that we now have 2 starter kit options available. Our regular one for 79.99 and our new starter kit for those who mainly want to focus on online sales and online parties for only 39.99.

Ash,

Joining in with Debra and Jenn to say how thrilled I am with to be with Mia Bella--I am coming up on my 4 year anniversary, and things just keep getting better and better:)

Best wishes on your decision and welcome to the forums!

and better and better and better!
Love all these Mia Bella Moms out there who are having a Bella Blast! :-) LOL

I've been with both companies Scentsy and MiaBella, both are very good companies to work with, the products in either of the companies are top notched. Personally I didn't like a monthly autoship. Good luck with your decision!

Thank you everyone. I am getting closer to a decision and should hopefully have a decision made by this weekend. Again, thank you everyone.

Ash

You are very welcome, hope to welcome you to our world soon! :)

I see you have been well informed about Mia Bella..
Good luck to you with your decision..

I too am with Mia Bella good luck, as you make a decision. Ash you should try the products first, I am sure Deb would be more than happy to help in getting a sample out to you. good luck

I have made my decision and my decision is that I am going to sign up to be a Mia Bella associate and pay the monthly fee for the website. After talking to my husband last night and today we both agreed this option is the best for me. The money we would spend on the actual COTM could go to what I prefer to purchase to keep on hand for sales, etc instead of ending up with a scent that nobody could possibly like. I doubt that would happen but you all I am sure get my point. I am happy with my decision. I also found out our next door neighbor is a consultant with Mia Bella and is willing to help me with anymore questions I could have. However I am sure I will be back on here asking questions looking for other Mia Bella Reps answers. Now all I need to do is get started, order products, and possibly set up an open house.
Thank you everyone.

Ash

Well CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am really happy for you!!

Welcome to the Mia Bella Family, that is fantastic!!!! :)

Oh, make sure you stop by the Mia Bella board anytime!! :)

Thanks. I am pretty excited. I was making soy candle before but just couldnt get a strong enough scent throw no matter what changes I made plus don't really have time to make them anymore being a mom to young kids. What I love is the option of both candles and warmers plus the price of products, start up price and discount price. Also the fact that they are an A+ rating with the better business bureau :)

Congrats, That's Awesome.
Welcome to Mia Bella.

Welcome to Mia Bella!!!!

Hope to see you around on the Mia Bella forum.
