They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but what do you do when someone steals your business name?
When I opened my business way back in 2015 I registered it as Waxidents; An Experimental Candle Company and Waxidents. Unfortunately due to lack of sales I let the register expire and continued to operate as a hobby business. Someone clearly took advantage of that.
It came to my attention yesterday when someone googled me and let me know. I reached out to the "owner" but doubt I'll hear back.
I've seen this before in my time, other's copying logo's, look, scent lists and ideas. It's not out of the normal, but an actual business name is bold.
I don't know what the future holds for the name Waxidents, I may have to re-brand with a new name. I won't worry about that until the end of the year.
In the meantime, Advents are still available on the site until Friday, I'll closes the listing then and do inventory and get oils ordered. They will be out by the end of November.
