What Is Jewelry In Candles All About?
Jewelry In Candles Review | Pros Vs Cons
Pros
- The company manufactures the products right here in the United States.
- They use 100% soy wax to make the candles. Using soy wax is more economical because they will burn longer and its a safer way to breathe your candles.
- As a customer or a consultant you can choose your jewelry type and the proper ring size compared to Diamond Candle you can’t pick your ring size.
- Some of the mystery rings are valued anywhere from $10 up to $10,000.
- Can be a great experience for gift giving when waiting with anticipation what kind of hidden jewelry will surface once the wax melts.
- The jars that the candles are made in can be recycled and reused for holiday crafts, home decor, or drinking glasses.
- They just added some body butter skin care products made with real natural ingredients to their line so I thought that was cool for a candle company.
- JIC consultants earn up to 20% per candle sale.
- 20% of the proceeds from the company sales is donated to their Dream Factory for children.
Cons
- Some people have issues with delivery and shipping of their orders and it is the most reported issue by consumers to the Better Business Bureau Jewelry In Candles Report.
- Not all the candle scents are pleasing which is expected because everyone does have different preferences and favorite scents.
- If your candle reveals a piece of jewelry and you wear to the point it starts to turn green that is because it is not real gold or silver.
- If the consumer is not burning the candles often then it becomes a non-consumable product and your left guessing when your customer is going to reorder another candle.
- JIC consultants must sell consistently to several hundred customers in order to break even.
- Some reps are not comfortable hosting home parties or hosting at trade show events because of the accrued costs and expenses that come with presentations.

Jewelry In Candles Review | Facebook Marketing What Works and What Doesn’t
Of all the Jewelry In Candles reviews I have read I noticed how everyone loves to talk about how great the product is but no one really is teaching actual business strategies that can help you increase more sales.
Let me ask you this question and be honest, if Jewelry In Candles is so great would you still be buying the candles if your weren’t getting paid to sell it?
I’m being serious…because that is how you must think as a serious business owner. There is nothing wrong with liking a product and sharing it with your friends, but if you are trying to market this product as serious business then you better have some kind of strategy versus just buying the candles each month and reselling them to your aunt and best friends for profit.
There are so many reasons why men and women selling Jewelry In Candles have been struggling to make sales on a consistent basis.
Most of them make the mistake of just posting status updates on their Facebook wall hoping it will bring hundreds of customers.
Here is screen shot of a 2 real time Jewelry In Candles marketer mistakes on social media networks like Facebook.
Can you find the marketing mistakes? In the first photo the person status says that she wants help in hosting 10 Jewelry In Candles parties this month and puts out so much info about the rewards and the percentages earned etc. This is considered too much info and is not sharing any value with the marketplace.
What about the next photo, did you see the marketing mistakes there? Okay, in this status the person starts off with a nice holiday greeting but…she then plasters the content of her product with too many hashtags. I have had success with hashtags in Instagram but doing it like this on Facebook is going overboard and not going to get you leads or sales.
Jewelry In Candles Review | 8 Reasons Jewelry In Candles Consultants Fail In The Business
- They don’t know much about marketing and advertising in today’s digital economy. ~ Most marketers online are still marketing with an old school marketing method because that is all they know.
- They are operating their Jewelry In Candles business blindly without a plan of action or DMO (Daily Method of Operation). ~ They don’t know where to start or even what tasks to do daily and they are not consistent in their actions.  We have met with actual former Jewelry In Candles consultants who expressed to us how the money they were making is not enough to sustain them in the business because of the lack of consistent sales and lack of enough leads. That is the same story we have heard over and over from our students in SFM who have been involved with MLM, Direct Sales, and Home Party Planning programs.
- They don’t have a marketing budget in place. ~Â See when a new consultant joins any type of home based business or affiliate marketing program we strongly recommend they first have a marketing and advertising budget set aside as the first step. Â These funds are not to be used for personal use and are to be used strictly for business expenses such as paid marketing, tools for your digital business, and to keep up with the fees and costs to run the business you are in.
- They don’t have the right mindset. ~ It’s a huge hit and miss if you just jump in a home based business and think that your going to be a success overnight selling your products. It going to require you to deprogram your old mindset and learn a new way of thinking entrepreneurially for success.
- They keep recruiting the wrong people, friends & family. ~Â They keep recruiting unqualified people who have no home based business experience. Listen I have so many friends in my facebook too but I am not going to sit on the phone and call everyone from my high school yearbook that dates back 1998 to see if they would be interested in selling candles. Â I’m being REAL with you, that is not a good strategy and if your are doing that it’s no wonder your not succeeding. Â You must set aside in your game plan that you are going to just focus on money producing activities.
- They are not focused on money producing activities. ~Â What does that mean? That means since you are involved in this type of business program such as Jewelry In Candles, you want to focus on the income producing activities like prospecting for new customers outside your warm market by building rapport and relationships, following up within 24 to 48 hours, training your new consultants to duplicate what you are doing, keeping good tracking records of your results, tweaking and making necessary improvements in your skillsets, that is going to become residual income to you.
- They don’t know how to train and grow serious sales teams that produce large volume sales. ~ Show me a leader that has never needed to train a single person in their business that is earning $10,000 a month. Whether you like to hear it or not you will have to recruit and train as many consultants as you can fit into your sales team if you are going to reach at least a six figure income status. Â Before my partner Rich earned his six-figure status in the industry he spent so much time focusing on conducting team trainings and live conference calls that helped his team duplicate his success in becoming the top recruiting in his previous direct sales company.
- They limit themselves to just their current location to prospect. ~ Major set back, you never want to limit yourself to where you live to grow any type of business.  With the power of the internet, the potential combined with the right blueprint will get you to grow globally.
The only way to be successful in your Jewelry In Candles business to add a marketing strategy that will bring you an abundance of leads on a consistent basis but you must learn some new skill sets in order for it to work.
Jewelry in Candles Review | Conclusion
Here is the bottom line, if you are going to be running any kind of home based business or network marketing program, you got to learn simple and consistent daily disciplines to run a successful business. Â Most of the 97% of people who are failing in the home based business industry because they bring that 9 to 5 mentality to their business, they aren’t used to not getting paid immediately like a regular job does with a steady paycheck and boss watching them.
What happens to you is you get all excited about this business and then when it is time to perform you end up quitting within your first month. Â That is not the way to build a business and this is one of the reasons home party candle businesses have given people a bad taste in their mouths. Â If they see you acting like this then how do you expect your prospects to take your type of business industry seriously?
Your an entrepreneur now so that mean you will have to become that entrepreneur that is responsible for your business. Â Rich and I learned this valuable lesson when we got started in the network marketing industry, we failed so many times and them it hit us that we weren’t taking responsibility for our business.
