Do you love crafts and making things with your hands? Have you ever thought about turning that into a business? Today we're talking with the founder of Blk Sunflower, a handcrafted candle business that's blossomed in its first 2 years.
Jazmin Richards started making candles as a stress-reliever from her day job, and so she could burn clean candles that wouldn't bother her son's asthma. She took her hand-made candles to a local holiday market in late 2019. When COVID shut her son's school in early 2020, she took the leap on her candle making business and Blk Sunflower was born.

Jazmin didn't have extra money laying around for starting a candle business. Other than the candle making supplies, she only spent about $100 on Instagram ads when she first took Blk Sunflower full-time. We'll find out how she stretched her investment to get the best returns, and where to focus your initial budget to see the most growth.

Today, Blk Sunflower pours at least 200 candles every week, and has been featured in magazines like People, Cosmopolitan, and Elle. We'll hear how she's gotten such big-time press without spending tons on advertising, what marketing strategies have driven her early growth, and other candle business tips to help you hit the ground running.
