I don't know what to charge, or how to go about selling it. Any help would be wonderful.
Thanks!!

Determining the price: First RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH do comparison shopping from online stores selling incense to going to stores like Wal Mart, Target, Etc then compare them to speciality stores that sell home products, or candles, or novelties. Maybe go to swap meets and open air markets to find out what they are sold for there. Figure out what folks charge in each arena. Then decide what is best for you. The market will bare whatever people will pay you for your product. Adjust up or down depending on how it works for you.
LOCATION FOR SALE: Well most likely you won't start out selling in stores and shops. So try open air markets, flea markets, and online auctions. That will give you a start. You might also want to try your own website and selling directly to the public. Again, research the best way to determine where to sell.
remember marketing a product like incense try burning it while people view the product itself.
HAPPY SELLING.

Most people make and sell incense on their own. You will probably fair better to do it on your own for right now. Start out slowly and then gain momentum by going to small retailers. Then you could always grow from there. You don't want to grow too fast and not be able to meet demand. By the way what are some of the scents that you make? I sell candy bouquets to fund my main business but I also make baskets and need interesting thing to put in them.

"You're Beautiful"Incense.That should be your name.Then you want to price it high to start with.Market it as the world's finest in cense. Hand made,by you!Packaging is most important.Colored cellophane would be nice,with gold wire ties.Then you will need to do a test market.Go to a boutqet,and set up outside the store,with your best scent,and see what people think about it.Then go to www.godaddy.com these are good people and will help you devolep a web-site.Then advertise and market your product.Peace and good luck!!!
