What a candle and soap maker website needs to do
Scent products are hard to sell online, so describe each scent in plain words, show ingredients and burn or use guidance, and make bundles and gift sets easy to find.
Gift buyers are the hidden audience. A gift section with bundles, notes and shipping deadlines helps them decide quickly, and often lifts the average order.
