It’s that time of year again. It’s a time when the great expansive outdoors - or at least the backyard - beckons us to relax in the open air with our barbecues working full-steam to produce our grilled food concoctions. This is the perfect time of year to set up a theme display in your store devoted to festivities of the outdoor type. You can promote your Candles of Eden products in association with items suited for the backyard patio BBQ environment.

Just think of the three tradespeople who can supply you with ideas for a summer display theme. Butchers, bakers, and candle makers can give you complementary promotion ideas. Put things associated with each of these trades together to give your customers ideas for creative outdoor entertaining.

A display in your store can feature BBQ aprons, grilling mitts, and grilling recipe books. Next to that, you can have recipe cards for great summer bakery favorites such as cheesecakes and Key Lime pies, and beside them a selection of SoyLuscious® Soy Candles. You have the grilling paraphernalia, the recipes, and the candles to enhance the backyard ambience… all on one display.

Think of a display in your store with a colorful sets consisting of BBQ mitts and aprons, with a book highlighting summer desserts and cocktails. Right amongst all that are Candles of Eden candles with fragrances like Sweet Potato Pecan Pie, Strawberries and Cream, Salty Sea Air, and Pineapple Cilantro. Maybe you will choose to highlight BBQ utensils, your own homemade summer baking recipes, which you’ve printed up, and SoyLuscious® scents such as Fruit Slices, Gardenia Blooms, Freshly Picked Strawberries, or Cool Watermelon. They all speak of summer and good times with family and friends outdoors.

Theme displays get your customers in the mood for what a season offers them. Someone who stops in front of your butcher, baker, candle maker themed display may well pick up what your selling there and plan a week-end event. They have the BBQ accessories you’re selling, they have the recipes, and they have the appropriate scented SoyLuscious® candles to highlight their shindig.

All they have to do once they leave your store is get to that butcher for that prime cut of steak, and that baker for those breads, rolls, and pies. You have already supplied them the candles to make their grilling event a great one.

This is the way to promote summer, and any product lines you sell conducive to outdoor entertaining. It’s a great way to promote your Candles of Eden candles in a different way. One display with a butcher, baker, candle maker, theme can net you sales in more than one product category. Your customers will view that display and will picture those steaks grilling, those pies waiting dessert time, and their SoyLuscious® soy candles illuminating the backyard patio environment as the party waxes on.

Summer’s only a few days away – and so is peak barbecuing season. We at Candles of Eden want to help you use your Candles of Eden products in creative ways to promote your business. Think like a butcher, a baker, and a candle maker and get all products associated with those trades ready to help you spur your summer sales.
