My GC Story

Last month, Gold Canyon featured a few demonstrator's Gold Canyon Story and I thought I would share mine.

June, 2009, I stumbled across a blog highlighting Gold Canyon. I went online to check the company out because I had never heard of it, but I love candles. I decided to find a Demonstrator that was near me (which was in VA Beach) and ordered a candle just to see what I thought about the product. I received my candle about a week later and I was hooked! I talked it over with Charlie (my husband) and he was on board as well with as much support as I needed (God love him :o) I contacted the lady through email, but because it was Summer, she was vacationing and really didn't seem to want to help me get started, so I searched for the second nearest demonstrator and that is when I found Tiffany Rennie out of Hertford, NC. Tiffany was so excited that I contacted her and has been a great support every since.

As you can see, my two closest counter-parts were both over an hour away from me. I was the first demonstrator in my area. All the other Home Businesses I had heard of had many, many demonstrators and I didn't want to do something everyone else was doing.

I ordered my Full Demonstrator Kit on June 25th and had my first Home Show scheduled at my house on July 12th. It was a huge success! I sold over $700 worth of Gold Canyon that day and over $300 more by the following Friday, which let me earn my Full Demonstrator Kit for FREE, plus I made over $280 in commission and received $75 worth of GC Products for hitting my first Quick Start! (I can tell you more about Quick Starts if you contact me). Now I had security that if this did turn out to be something I didn't want to continue, that I could quit at any time and I wasn't out any money. After my first year with Gold Canyon, I averaged over $650 a month income. I have to say, this is something I want to continue!!!

If you are interested in becoming a Demonstrator, here are a few factors that might help you decided...

1. Do you LOVE candles?
   
2. Do you want to make extra money for you and/or your family?
   
3. Do you want to make your own work schedule?

If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, let me help you get started TODAY! I am willing to be there for you like Tiffany has been there for me. The more success you have with Gold Canyon, the more success I will have.

Please call (252) 209-1480 or email me (mandysgccandles@gmail.com) to get started NOW! This is the best time to start your new business with Christmas just around the corner.

Oil Warmer Adapters

I have a new found love for my Pod Warmer...it is the Oil Warmer Adapters that you can use the Gold Canyon Home Fragrance Oil with. As you can see in the picture, the Oil Warmer Adapter comes in two colors, black and tan and are $5.98 each. The Home Fragrances Oils come in 6 different fragrances, Clean Sheets, Cozy Christmas, Holiday Wreath, Pomegranate, Sugar Cookie and Sweet Pea and are $6.98 per bottle.

The Oil Warmer Adapter's instructions say pour 100 drops (the bottle itself has 100 drop lines so you don't actually have to count them) of the Home Fragrance Oil in the adapter. There are 3 applications in each bottle.

I was curious to see how long 100 drops would last and over the past 2 days, I have ran my Pod Warmer with Pomegranate Oil for 16 hours and I still have a strong smell and plenty of oil left in my adapter. I am so excited!

The great thing about warmer the Home Fragrance Oil versus the Scent Pods is the almost instant smell that permeates through your home. It is such a strong and immediate smell and you don't have to wait for the wax in the Scent Pods to heat up before you smell anything, which could take 25-40 minutes sometimes. Also, it is cheaper than the Scent Pods. Scent Pods are rated to last 20 hours, but most of you that use the Scent Pods know that you can get much more use out of them if you use your timer correctly and let the wax rest. (I get an average of 30-40 hours out of each of my Scent Pods.) The Home Fragrance Oil has enough oil for 3 applications. If each application last for more than 20+ hours, you will get 60+ hours of fragrance for $6.98 versus $5.98 for the Scent Pods.

The down side to the Home Fragrance Oils are you have to purchase the Oil Warmer Adapter which only comes in two colors, but it is reusable. They are $5.98 each. Another downside is the fragrance selection options. I am sure after the oils gain more popularity, that the selections will increase, but right now it is limited. Another con is that when you are not using your Pod Warmer, the oil is still liquid. This may not matter to some, but if you accidentally knock your Pod Warmer while not in use, the oil will spill out (of course this would happen with liquefied Scent Pods as well).

All in all, I love this new Pod Warmer option. I am thrilled with the instant smell gratification without having to wait for my Scent Pod to melt. Even though I have only used my Adapter for 16 hours, I feel like I will at least get another 16 hours out of this first application.
