Tips & Warnings
Research the candle companies a few weeks ahead of when you want to have your candle party. This gives you time to choose the right consultant.
Make sure your guests don't feel obligated to buy. Some may have just wanted to browse or may buy something at a later date.
Don't assume that everyone who said they were coming will indeed show up. Confirm with everyone, and if there are no longer enough people for your event, change the date.
Don't forget to plan how you will receive products from your consultant as well as how your guests will receive their purchases. Everyone should leave knowing this detail.
