Welcome to the 8th episode in our Candle Maker Connections series. This time I'm joined by Sue, Tracy, Jenni and Nicola to talk about how to become (and stay) organised in your candle business.

In this episode we chat about:
- The systems, habits and tools needed for staying organised across all areas of your business (from daily tasks to planning methods and inventory management).
- Practical workspace and supply storage tips (including how to maximise small spaces and avoid overbuying stock).
- How to organise your documentation (especially for testing) plus advice for overcoming overwhelm.

Nicole from AUZi Insurance joins me on the podcast again, this time to chat about the growing concerns surrounding car diffusers and insurance claims. We unpack why there's been a spike in incidents (especially during summer) and how this could impact insurance coverage for candle and diffuser makers.

In this episode we chat about:
- Why insurance claims for car diffusers are increasing.
- The changes that might be coming and what makers can do to stay informed and compliant.
- Practical tips to protect your business through labelling, education and safer practices.
