I do not think that is needed as sales are already to high.

You should definitely expand to the internet. They would sell well on the world wide web. You could go international.

I've declined requests from NZ, Aussie, England and Canada thus far with no capacity until the facility is established.

Great! Let us know when internet sales are available, I want to find out what Romance, Democrat, Obama, and Hillary smell like.

I think it would be neat to know what they smell and look like, both. Are the candles different shapes, sizes and colors?

Maybe Obama and Hillary would order some?

They are all container candles.

I do not know if the politicians would like the candles or even buy them. I do not depend on them. I do not believe in government or politicians so much. I believe in myself.

Are they the white ones in the photo the link provided? On the bottom shelf? Nice.

They are now all blue glass and silver metal tins. the fancy clear glass is limited addition as I use no chemical dyes so there are only so many compatible oils with white wax and UV alterations.

Just think of all the different things that can be made. You are an inspiration to the grass roots entrepreneur, Nathan! Your story could give them the impetus to start their own businesses.

The customized employment is hard for most individuals. I cannot keep up with all of it without help. Even if things were less busy. This is designed to be facilitated employment especially for those with payees who have difficulty managing their own business. I am simply public relations as a skill.

In your county, but what about across the country and around the world? You could start a franchise. Still, not everyone will be able to work for C.I.
The ones who cannot might be inspired to start something of their own in a different market, so they are not competing directly with candles.

I do not believe in making money to make money under this premise. The proven to be ethical, proven to have a DD with substantial disabilities as defined by the federal law and who can conduct quality work will be offered a license to use the brandology whilst sourcing ingredients by means of my drop shippers cheaper then they can get them as a stand alone small candle maker. I do not believe in high overhead and believe this product could be produced in peoples kitchens. Yet the larger facility I'd have here and meanwhile others in other areas could with my help as one or more individuals as a group or not make more independent living money at least with it.

It would be great to get the idea out there through media awareness that people with disabilities can get government grants like you did to start up operations making and selling things other than candles that can help people with disabilities get jobs. There is no telling what kind of unique ideas others will come up with. The candle idea is great, but there are so many directions others could take.

Well it happens all the time but on very small scales that is not often known by the public. Nothing like what has been achieved where I live and other places needed a professional deployment model and agenda. Also I have a whole portfolio of products in the works. The problem is while this could employ people around here what about others? I do have a implementation model for local work groups in other areas or individuals with disabilities but problems lay with public relations.

It's a tricky thing and I'd help all I could but streamlining product with bulk purchases for assembly where others live can better compete with China and or improve work wages. It is a unique ethical deli-ma and even under a non-profit based model I don't innately trust my organization after I pass away from old age. I'd have to talk to lawyers and mandate distance based member based votes but also it would get very complicated when it gets to big and may be to unreachable to individual members.

Some things for me to think about but for now I have a local population that is needing lots of facilitated work and outreach inclusion for employment.

I will admit the following:

While it may be easily estranged the idea of inclusion facilitations buckling due to the budgets an uncertain future exist. What inclusion possibilities exist for social and community integration for well being would then survive? I've also thought of this project as a potential fall back for an emergency local well being facilitations whereas the products would be the fundraiser and volunteers would man the center. Moreover should budgets subside to the point it could only be subsidized many special interest organizations would put there tails between their legs and run for higher water and shut down program facilitations with little effort for fundraising as the will is not there for them. The industry as it is with this fiscal risk for those in severe to moderate risk for exclusion is not appropriately equipped.

Just my risk assessment in if's.

It would be great if governments were fiscally sound. Yet my advocacy, my instinct and my analysis assumes the worst. I just don't believe in government nor do I the private sector.
