The Tip is 'Manufacturer's sites' I recently ran out of my favorite pancake syrup. I loved the brand we had been using but when I went to the grocery store, I couldn't find it. The syrup was made in Indiana and I was living in Florida at the time. I tried unsuccessfully to find it on an internet. The manufacturer is small and their products are not readily available so I thought I would try their website. They did, in fact, have their own internet store so I ordered it directly from them. Now, I always buy their made in USA maple syrup from their website and never run out. Made in America Secrets has thousands of made in USA products offered by hundreds of small manufacturers. These small Made in America companies are a large contributor to our economy. In fact, according to the 2008 US Census Bureau small businesses, those employing 1 to 99 employees comprise 98% of all the USA businesses. This is equivalent to 5.8 million businesses that employee over 40 million people. Most American's are unaware of how significant small business is when compared to the total size of the US economy. This website is aware of it and that is why 99% of the businesses that advertise on Made in America Secrets are small businesses. Use this web site to for a list of products made in the US- especially since it is likely that a small US manufacturer employs someone you know- your husband, wife, children, or grandchildren. When using Google to search for Made in America products often times these small made in the United States businesses never show up on page one- and most folks don't look past page one. What does this mean? The consumer has a difficult time locating that US made product. Made in America Secrets was conceived to provide a solution to that problem. As an example search for motorcycles Made in America using Google and you will likely miss many of the companies that make this country great. Use Made in America Secrets for the search and you will likely find a hidden jewel. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Paupers Candle Our candles are hand poured and hand crafted by, Krista and Mark Webber, in the state of Idaho, USA. We have been making candles since 2002. We have made an extra effort to purchase our raw materials, when possible, from companies that make them in the USA. Also, we are continuing to produce all our candles using 100% natural soy wax and produce a candle line that is 100% natural using essential oils. This is our From Nature Candle Collection. We use non-metal wicks and use a glass tumbler that you can clean out and use as a drinking glass for your home. Re-purposing at its best! We have arranged our candles into four candle lines: Pauper's Traditional Candle Line, Signature Candle Line, From Nature Candle Collection, and Herb N' Garden Line. Each candle line features a set of unique scents. Each scent in each candle line comes in a 7oz boxed candle and an air freshener. Each candle line has its own packaging to set it apart. We are very excited about our candle lines and know you will find a scent to fit you. We are currently living in Sandpoint, Idaho and seeing our 17 year old dream coming to a reality, being debt free, living a simple life on our own land, and living off-grid. Yes, our candles are made from free energy from the sun! When one is in control of their world and the world is not controlling you, then one is truly free. We decided long ago that since our chosen professions do not produce large or even medium incomes, we then want to live in what we think is a beautiful area. We lived in Pacific City, OR on the coast, in Mitchell, OR in the high plains dessert and now in Northern Idaho in the middle of trees with a beautiful lake at our cities edge. We are truly blessed! We are pleased that you have used and enjoyed our products and thank you for your continual support. Happy Burning and Many Scents to You, Mark and Krista Webber |
