#057. We break down what it really takes to get your candles into retail stores through wholesale without wrecking your schedule or your margins. We walk through readiness, the exact assets buyers expect, simple wholesale math, and the follow-up system that turns first orders into steady reorders.
• checking wholesale readiness by planning for a 100-candle order and a realistic turnaround time
• setting shipping expectations and learning constraints like USPS weight limits and box planning
• deciding how to approach stores and why emailing can be cleaner than walking in unannounced
• building a wholesale catalog that answers buyer questions fast without overexplaining
• defining minimum opening orders, reorder minimums, and product quantity multiples that protect production
• pricing for wholesale using the 4x retail rule and keystone wholesale terms to avoid losing money
• reducing costs by consolidating supply orders and managing shipping fees
• tracking true cost of goods and margins with tools that factor in shipping and supplier changes
• driving reorders with a nurture sequence plus merchandising tips, promos, and seasonal deadlines
Grab those free resources in the notes below. You can also check out more information about our wholesale course if that's of interest to you. Um, but just grabbing that free download at uh candle businesspro.com slash wholesale.
The other thing I recommend is our software, which is makersmanager.com. I have a free trial if you want. Uh, you can get that in the show notes below as well.
If you have any questions, comments, definitely drop them in the notes below. DM me on Instagram if you would like, just at Candle Business Pro.
