7- Steps to promote your soap business along with Soap Boxes!

Soap Boxes play a vital role in making your soaps a brand. It is very difficult as well as costly to sell your soapy products without customized boxes. Sometimes, a few personal problems force an individual to create something new to resolve that issue. The same is the story of my best friend Jayme.

 

She was suffering from severe skin allergies from her childhood. She grew up with this issue and was never able to use store-bought soapy products. At times, she cries a lot as she needs to clear herself but her allergic reaction made her terrified.

 

We have been studying in the same class since we were children. When our bachelor classes started, she started thinking about making soap. I wasn’t very much interested. Feeling the pain of someone else or experiencing something by ourselves is completely different. I want to help her with her allergies, so I bought very expensive soap for her.

 

Unfortunately, they also won’t suit her skin. Once my cousin gave me a soap made of natural products. I hate its fragrance. It seems like a bitter gourd. My courage didn’t allow me to use it. In that instance, my best friend Jayme came.

 

I don’t want to offer it to her. The fragrance was terrible and I don’t want to see her in pain by triggering her allergic reaction. She used it and out of my expectation, the soap won’t hurt her. I saw tears of happiness in her eyes.

 

 After that incident, I gave the soap to her and also bought more. After three months, the soap maker was gone out of the country and we got very upset. My friend was again heartbroken. At that time, she got the idea to make soap on her own.

 

Step-1: Idea:

 

The idea came to mind but we didn’t understand how to make it real. We had no experience. I saw her struggling to get knowledge in all ways.

 

Step-2: Researching:

 

For one year, she takes classes, searches online, and watches thousands of ways of making soaps. Her mother also knows all her activities in regards to making soap. She also wants to help her. So, she gave her cold soap manufacturing unit on her birthday.

 

Step-3: Buy products:

 

Step-3 is buying a unit but as her mother gave her the unit so I jumped to the next level. I was just helping her and I felt only she was struggling as I was not going through any step. Now we bought a lot of products including natural oils, herbs, glycerin, and fragrances.

 

 It was very difficult to select the right material and we know it’s a learning process so mistakes were allowed.

 

Step-4: Experimenting:

 

Now the ingredients are mixed and go to waste. She always misses something. I left after hours of experiments as I got exhausted but she won’t. Her trials were not limited to days but also nights.

 

One day, she made something that was exceptional. The soap was ready. It happened after two weeks of trials. I feel like spending two weeks’ worth of results.

 

Step-5: Success:

 

It wasn’t the success that she was able to make the perfect soap once. The success came her way when the same product was made again. She was very happy. The soap was made of natural ingredients and perfectly suits her skin. We were very happy.

 

Step-6: Business:

 

After a few months, we had an idea of making it on a huge scale so that other people can also get benefits. She made a lot of soap by introducing different fragrances. We give them to many of our friends. The packing of soaps was very tricky.

 

The reason was that we don’t have professional Soap Boxes. We invest a lot of money and buy beautiful gift boxes. All our friends appreciate her struggles and we were very happy. Now we were thinking of making it commercial. I talk to my dad and get some good links as my dad is a well-known businessman.

 

Step-7: Soap Packaging:

 

As we had ready a lot of soaps but looking for some cost-effective Soap Box. It was not very difficult. The name of the brand was already decided. So, we found a professional company online, OXO Packaging. They offer a perfect customized design that matches the soap. We immediately order Soap Boxes in bulk. They deliver the boxes on time. It was a very happy moment. We pack all our soaps and market them. After three months, the brand is well-reputed and we have so many clients.
