We all have experienced some point in our lives when we walk into a house that just has the most welcoming scent. A simple candle can change the way you view a house because it can mask that other odor of cat litter, wet dog, or smelly socks. Candles help us feel relaxed and welcomed. Nic Bianchi probably never thought he would earning a living from making candles but that all changed on his 12th birthday when his parents got him a candle making kit.
After working around with making candles, he would go on to establish Bianchi Candle Co. and the Wild Worksman. He started selling his candles in Bel Angelo’s Boutique in Nebraska. Since then he has expanded to other local and non local shops. Along with his market expanding, he has been able to develop new fragrances for his candles which give people a larger variety. He makes his candles with all natural soy wax so that they are safer and actually burn longer than normal candles. It doesn’t stop there though, Bianchi took his first $200 profit and donated it to a police woman who was shot in duty. Since then, he has continued to donate back to the community.
Innovation occurs in all different ways and Bianchi took advantage of that when he was just 12 years old. From that, he was able to create a business that is profitable and is something that he enjoys.
I think it’s awesome that Bianchi followed his passion and created a candle business. I love that he made candles out of soy wax, which is safer and makes the candles last longer. I’s inspiring that he took the first $200 of his first profit and gave it to a police officer wounded on duty. This shows that the company isn’t all about profit, but giving back to the community. I would definitely buy a candle from here!
Well written post, it was interesting to see how this young entrepreneur was able to start this business. He found a way to tackle on a business from a different angle and make it a success. He set himself apart from other candle companies/ businesses and found his own way to progress forward.
