Common questions about launching candle makers subscriptions on Shopify with Beez.
Monthly and bi-monthly are most popular, allowing customers to enjoy a candle fully before receiving a new one. Quarterly options also work well for larger candles or seasonal boxes.
Offer a 'Scent of the Month' for discovery, or allow subscribers to choose from a rotating selection in their customer portal. A scent quiz can also help personalize recommendations.
Use sturdy boxes, ample cushioning (like crinkle paper or biodegradable packing peanuts), and consider 'fragile' labels. Double-boxing for very delicate items can also help.
Absolutely! Many successful candle makers offer both. Beez allows you to easily manage both recurring and one-time purchases from the same product catalog.
Focus on unique scents, high-quality products, excellent customer service, and an engaging unboxing experience. Personalized notes and exclusive subscriber perks also help.
Profit margins can vary widely but generally range from 30-60% for handmade candles. Subscriptions can improve this by providing predictable revenue and bulk purchasing opportunities.
