      Hi there. Yes it is. The tax side of things makes it really tricky. If you are looking for how to.make products however you are welcome to sign up for the Mini Soap Suite £5 a month membership. It has beginner soap making too and the platform it is hosted on manages all the tax for me ☺️ It does mean the price may be a little more than £5 depending on your sales tax rate though. Hope that helps

      My best advice is do not quit your day job until you are established. It takes years not months to earn a good income from it. I was working along side my business and then dropped my hours down when I could draw a reliable income from it but it can be done with a good plan of action and business head on.

      No not really in CP soap you will generally be soaping at below 120f and that won't be a problem. With HP soap I wait for the cooked soap to be below 180f before adding my EOs

    Niching down too tightly can also kill your business. The BEST option for any new business person is to start with a wider niche (or even 2-3 niches that gel together very nicely) and then slowly hone it down to whatever seems to sell at a rate higher than the rest and generates more interest. My business originally was going to be soap, but then I expanded to 'home and body', added room fragrance, lip and body scrubs, wax melts, and then eventually home decor such as cushions, table runners, bedding - all with my own designs giving my 'brand' a cohesive look (think Cath Kidston and the like). My niche is multiple and wide, but people love matching and complementing things in life, so it'll work better than just selling soap, which is a generally low-profit business for most.

    • @thesoapcoach.
      @thesoapcoach. 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @FeralDucky ahh I think we may have to agree to disagree on this one. In my experience small niches are more successful. I would class all soap and body products as the product however and the niche is then who you make for ie dogs, teens etc or it could be specialising in white/private label as an example. But it isn't black and white for sure and I appreciate your POV. Thank you.

  • @LadyGecko
    @LadyGecko 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I don't disagree, but you need to understand your market first; whether it is national, regional or local market. Once you do that, then you can decide upon a niche and/or gimmick if you will, that will make your product stand out. Katie Carson is well known for the 'royal court' and her High Top soaps. You have The Soap Gal who is doing very well in private label manufacturing. And you have Dr Squatch aka Jack Haldrup who suffers from psoriasis and decided that men needed better options, but weren't the kind to shop Farmer's Markets and 'boutique' store. If helped hugely off course, that he had the bucks to hire a marketing firm.

    • @thesoapcoach.
      @thesoapcoach. 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ahh yes I use Dr Squatch as an example of a great niche frequently. I understand where you are coming from. I like to recommend choosing a niche based on your skills, knowledge and expertise first and then a sales strategy needs to be formulated but the two will often have blurred lines I agree. 👍

    • @LadyGecko
      @LadyGecko 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I got into soap making because I wanted to make Goat Milk Soap and while I make a really good GMS…so does just about everyone else in 50 radius miles. LOL. You also have to love what you do and love what you make because 1 out of 5 businesses fail within the first year, 90% with the first three (I’m an accountant for a CPA firm). So I don’t make products that I wouldn’t use myself or don’t like…like Bath Bombs, Shampoo/Conditioner Bars, Candles. Every scent is one that I enjoy…except for Lavender; I’m allergic to Lavender, but it’s a scent that sells and it tools me six months to find one that I could tolerate.

    That's awesome! I am a big advocate for donating. I started a Free Store almost 9 years ago. One of my projects this year is hygeine kits for our homeless population. That is why I am learning to make soap. One of my volunteers makes soaps and gave me the idea. So we are both going to make smaller bars for their kits. We are a not-for-profit and not a charity so can't claim it on our taxes but that's not a deterrent. There are so many ways to help, I absolutely love this! Wish me luck, my first batch is ready the end of July. I made 3 more batches. It's certainly been a learning experience!
