Business Type: Decorative Candles and Handmade Soaps
Location: Mexico
Having large orders of approximately 60 candles, I didn’t know how to process them. When I heard about the [Academy’s] course, I knew it could help me. I want to generate my own income, progress, and feel fulfilled as a person. Now that I’ve started a business, I want to make it grow.
Learning to keep good records helped me a lot, making [the] trial-and-error process faster in finding the right formulas for the correct weight, the formula for calculating the aroma weight, and the exact curing time. Now I’ve learned more [business] principles, like the Golden Rules, which I’ll continue to learn so that my business can grow significantly. I also enjoyed learning how I can sell my product through social media.
Making sacrifices helped improve the business and allowed me to grow as a person by achieving my goal of starting my own business, becoming more responsible and creative, and realizing that age is not a barrier to starting a business. I’m very happy to have overcome my fear of talking to people during the bartering process, as I know this will help me in my business and in everything else I set out to do.
