WAHM:

If you are interested in the creative craft of candle making, you can have a lucrative home business. According to the National Candle Association, candle consumer retail sales in the United States alone is projected at over $2.3 billion, not including candle accessories.

Candles have become a must-have accessory in every home for their practical and decorative elements, and they are used by 7 out of 10 American households. They have become popular as gifts at birthdays, Christmas, and housewarmings. Once merely a hobby of candle enthusiasts, candles are now sold in gift and specialty stores, home furnishing stores, through mail order, craft shows and through the Internet.

    And those are just the statistics in United States, think about the opportunities outside of the US. Gold Canyon Candles just announced last October that they are now doing direct sales into Canada and are looking for new Independent Demonstrators to introduce Canadiens to their fabulous products.

    I you know of anyone in the US or in Canada that is interested in becoming a demonstrator or if they’d like to purchase candles direct from the factory, goto www9.mygccandle.com/dizzysquid.
