BACK ONLINE!

I'm finally back online via desktop. Mobile internet is difficult to manage, and very hard to post from.

So, here are a few things that I have been doing since my last blog post, way back in September:


  • I've run a couple contests on Facebook! The first giveaway was a simmer pot with two bags of  Mia Melts. My second giveaway was a gift-basket.
  • I have a new contest going on right now: I'm aiming to reach 300 likes on my Facebook page by April 30th. You can check out my page at www.facebook.com/KirasMiaBella.  There are THREE PRIZES!!! The first prize is ONE Country Home Simmer Pot with a matching bag of Mia Melts AND a $50 Mia Bella Gift Certificate. Second prize is ONE 20oz Signature Sculpted Candle of your choice AND a $25 Mia Bella Gift Certificate. Third prize is ONE 16oz Jar Candle in the scent of your choice AND a $10 Mia Bella Gift Certificate. Hurry up and follow the post and get entered to WIN! :) As of right now I am at 181 likes for the page! 15 days left to get to my goal! Do you think I can do it? I think so!!! 
  • I'm helping out two causes right now, through the sales of some special candles: First is the World Wildlife Conservation Society (WWCS). Mia Bella has an exclusive line of 5- 16oz jar candles available, benefiting the Conservation efforts currently going on worldwide. There is Tiger, Panda, Sea Turtles, Green Parrot, and Polar Bear. $3 per jar sold goes to the WWCS.  Second, my 16yo son has huge plans to participate in an 11 day educational trip to Costa Rica, in the summer of 2015. Costa Rica currently hosts 16% of the worlds wildlife population in their tiny country, along with an amazing number of plants. This country is the most bio-diverse country in the world!  With that being said, anytime between April 15th, 2015, I am promoting these amazingly scented candles as a double fundraiser. As I previously mentioned, $3 from each candle goes to the WWCS. Additionally, whatever income I receive from the purchase of these candles will be going directly to my son's Costa Rica fund!
As you can see, I'm still actively working on selling Mia Bella Candles!  

Don't forget to check out my Facebook fan page and get entered to win one of those awesome prizes! Also, if you want to get more information about those amazing WWCS candles, go to www.kira.scent-team.com

Why Mia Bella Candles?

I have been asked this question many times recently- Why did I choose to sell Mia Bella Candles?

Here's why:
First of all, I have extremely strong allergies (I consider them to be severe) to anything scented. I can't even walk down the laundry isle or the candle isle in the stores without getting a headache and going into a sneezing fit. An online friend sent me a candle sample back in the fall of 2006, and it shocked me- I had no reaction to the scent. It was the signature scent- Sweet Orange and Chili Pepper. :o) That alone, the fact I had no sensitive reaction to the scented candle, made me want to try others...

Secondly, I was looking for a work from home job, and had been for over a year. I had been laid off from my retail job in 2005, and looked at many different scenarios. I had thought I found a good business I could do so I could stay home with my two children at the time. In reality, I still am with that other company, but I stuck with them for the product line (also helped me allergy wise). Then I found a fun business called Noah's Ark Animal Workshop- I was successful (in my eyes) with that for two years (and I would LOVE to get that restarted again in the future becasue it was fun and rewarding in many ways). But I didn't think what I was going to make enough just with NAAW, and didn't want all my eggs in one basket, so to speak. ;o) That's when my friend sent me the candle sample. As soon as I signed up, I put a lot of effort into it- getting business cards, purchasing the sample bag, telling all my friends about the amazing candles I found that didn't bother my allergies... I was having fun, many friends would ask me to bring my scent sample bag to birthday parties, and I would end up getting orders every time. For nearly two years, I was selling my Candle of the Month package almost as soon as it arrived on my doorstep. At one point I was doing at least $200 retail in sales per month. Not much, but at the time it was incredible for me.

Then family problems arose, and I had to quit all of my direct sales businesses because we moved out of the country for two years in 2009. These businesses were not available where I went. I spent the whole entire two years planning on which business I was going to start back up first as soon as I came back to the States.  My challenge was going to be moving to a new state. As soon as I arrived back in 2011, I called and got back onto the Candle of the Month Distributorship program and haven't looked back since!

A little about Scent-sations/Mia Bella

Mia Bella Candles are a proprietary blend of vegetable and palm wax, making them a cleaner burning candle than what you see in the stores now, and the wick is 100% cotton, with the base of the wick lead free. They also retain thier scent much longer, burn at a lower temperature, and can easily be cleaned up with just soap and water. Highly recommended fo9r people who have scent allergies or sensitive noses like mine! ;o)

Mia Bella Candles come in over 100 different scents. There are three different double wicked (for more even burning) jar sizes; 9oz, 16oz, and 26oz; 2.5oz votives; Mia Melts, for the flameless fans; and a few amazing lines of specialty candles that you WILL NOT FIND ANYWHERE ELSE!
Distributor options

If you think that Mia Bella is a good fit for you and my team, let me give you some options to work with. ;o)
Becoming a Distributor is only available in the United States and Canada at the moment.

  1.  Associate Distributor. This is a great way to get your foot in the door without a signup fee or minimum monthly requirments. You have the ability to purchase the candles at wholesale price (about 15-30% more than the Autoship distributor levels) and participate fully in the basic compensation program. You do not get a website as a general rule, but you may opt in for a company replicated website for $14.95 a month.
  2. Autoship Distributor. You must maintain a minimum autoship volume of $39.95 a month. With the autoship, you have a number of options to choose from, as well as the ability to purchase candles at BELOW wholesale price. A company replicated website is included with your autoship price. :o)
There are many ways to earn with Mia Bella!
  • Retail Sales- earn with home parties, craft fairs, "Smell and Sell" events, and many, many other ways!
  • Fundraisers- Help schools and other organizations raise money through fundraising! We have many options for fundraisers, even a specialized catalog and order forms, or create your own.
  • Residual income- Build a team and earn from your distributor sales at the same time as you are retailing products!
  • Qualified Vendor Program- Great new program that has no minimum selling requirements or signup fees, and great profit! Perfect for small business to help them boost business in their stores, or even mall kiosks! With a qualifying purchase you can get a FREE display rack! ;o)
Soooo much potential with Mia Bella, I could go on and on and on! But I will hold back and refrain from spilling everything, lol.
