Building a 6- Figure Candle Business from Scratch w/ Dude Candle (from home)

I hope you enjoy this highly requested collaboration with Matt, owner of Dude Candle. Matt's journey from the automotive industry (still a passion of his) to building his own candle brand from scratch. Everything... and I mean EVERYTHING, he has done himself. Get to see some behind the scenes, workflow, brand development, marketing, and more directly from Matt, himself.

While originally recorded as an in-person video, we had to re-record and put together a new video after the content was so rudely stolen. Big shout out to Matt for doing this. Thanks for watching!
