If you want to take the cost of your scented candles down, you need to think about moving to wholesale candle materials. When I go to candle making classes, they often tell us to move to wholesale supplies as soon as possible. You can limit the number of scents in your candle line and move to wholesale candle making fragrance sizes much quicker. Here is how to make this happen for your business:
1. Learn where you spend your money on candle supplies — If you have never done a detailed analysis of where you spend your money on candle making materials, you should do it today. It will give you the data you need to make some major decisions on how you will procure materials in the future. You will find some eye opening information and you will be ready to analyze this data.
2. Find your top two high cost items — You can save a lot of money on buying bulk for your top two or three cost items. You may be amazed at how much you can save when your buy your wax, wicks and fragrance for wholesale prices. You can change your profit margin almost immediately if you can find a way to buy in bulk.

3. Search for a reliable wholesale vendor the will allow you to buy medium sized lots — If you look around and do some calling, you can find a vendor that will work with you to “ramp up” your orders and still allow you to get some wholesale discount for your products. You will be loyal to that vendor, so it is in his best interest to give you a break and get you some bulk pricing even if you can’t buy a full sized lot all the time.
You can make a big impact to your candle making business by moving to wholesale waxes and fragrances right away. You will have to buy some larger quantities, so make sure you are making some solid sales before you jump into this, but it will save you a lot of money when you do it.
