The Milazzos, both from a nursing background, started making candles in their kitchen over a decade ago. Their company was one of the first to introduce candles to the fundraising industry and they built a large, thriving business via retail, wholesale and fundraising.
Bob Scocozzo and Charles Umphred had been introduced to home-based network marketing in 1988 and reached top-level positions in every company they were associated with and have had organizations of over 50,000 distributors globally.
While doing a Candle Fundraiser for his son's sports team, Bob started talking to the Milazzos. They told Bob about a new candle they had been working on, using "alternative" ingredients such as vegetables and other natural, renewable sources. What got Bob's attention was that this new candle burned practically soot free and smelled better than any candle he had ever smelled.
Bob and Charles asked the Milazzos for an exclusive contract to market the candle nationwide and eventually internationally. They named the new candle after Bob's daughter, who he calls "My good luck charm!" (To see his "good luck charm", see the picture below)
Wherever they sent the candles, the customers and friends would call back and tell them that their alternative candle was the best performing candle they had ever tried. Everyone commented on how REAL the scents smelled, they were amazed at how CLEAN and EVEN they burned too.
The Milazzos, Scocozzo and Umphred combined forces to form a new company in September 2002. To read the CEO's message about the company mission, click here >>>>>
The company's goal is to provide a home based business using a system of marketing that has not only proven superior as a way to get products into the mainstream, but also offers more people a chance to "dream" than any other system they've ever seen. That system is "word of mouth"/network marketing!
There are three ways to make money with this company: RETAIL, FUNDRAISING, and RESIDUAL INCOME.
The company offers the distributor a quality product, that is sure to become a leader in the candle industry, at a wholesale price that allows a profit margin that is unheard of in most direct selling opportunities.
Because a distributor can literally double his or her money on each sale, the results of selling candles for many people has been dramatic! Some of the areas that have turned out to be highly lucrative are HOME PARTIES, SHOWS, and OFFICE SALES.
Many distributors make craft items with the candles and earn great profits from that. And the simple "SMELL and SELL" demo allows a distributor to simply ask someone if he or she burns scented candles, followed by allowing that contact to smell one of these alternative gourmet candles, which often means a sale right there on the spot.

So many network-marketing companies have tried to get into fundraising but trying to get an organization to "sign up" into a program is often an effort in futility. Our fundraising program allows a distributor to approach a fundraising organization in a traditional way and this has led to remarkable success for many distributors nationwide.
We have just touched the tip of the iceberg with the fundraising potential out there and we truly believe that anyone can make a full time income just working on fundraising alone!
By simply referring five people to the Candle of the Month, a distributor is eligible to receive 6 levels of income on the commissionable value of all the products ordered by that organization. The plan was set up to allow distributors to grow a big business without the usual stress.
Many distributors in this company are able to make a full time income by focusing their attention on these three ways of making money.
As the company grows, it will continue to add new and exciting products to your business. Every one of them will be the kind of product that our distributors will be proud to show their friends, relatives and customers!
