THE BUSINESS OF STARTING

Have you ever heard someone say "I really want to do (insert dream here) but I just don't know where to begin?" Chances are, you have. Most of the time we let the pressure to be or create something perfect get in the way of actually starting in the first place. So in response to that, here's our advice: just start. 

Don't spend your time thinking about the what if's and every possibility that could cause you to fail, because unfortunately there are a lot of ways you could go wrong. If you let the fear of starting keep you from creating something you love, then what's the point? Get going and learn along the way, you'll see it's easier to refine and polish as you go rather than get it perfect in one shot. 

Case and point: our candles. Our line of candles has been a labor of love, and we continue to refine and improve them as we learn from our trials and the feedback from our customers. We've learned a lot about the candle-making business, from what wax and wick to use, to what vessel truly represents the brand, to the most important of all - the scent. Looking to the future, we're excited to create new scents from scratch and want to find a vessel that can be recognized as our own instantly. We have learned so much along the way and it's all because we didn't let the fear of failure keep us from starting out on this venture. If you're reading this and have an idea for something, anything, in mind - just start. We'll be talking more on this subject during our Business, Branding & Social Media workshop as well, purchase tickets here if you haven't already done so!
