How To Start A Soap Making Business

Ever wondered how to start a soap making soap and could not really find anybody to ask about it? Here's one idea from somebody who wondered the same thing and figured it out and made it work... Me...

Long lists of all the ways you can sell soap mostly just serve as clutter and confusion. Certainly one can go door to door and sell some soap. But really... Who wants to do that? What's more, why would you want to and why is it a bad idea?

Here's another one...

You could have soap parties and sell soap, or try to anyway, to friends and friends of friends... Please!!! That is ridiculous. Do you really want to impose on your friends and try to sell them something??? Not me... That's another bad idea and for a good reason.

OK. Here's the deal.

How To Start A Soap Making Business... Really

What most long lists of all the ways you can sell soap have in common is they are extremely inefficient ways to find people who really want what you have to offer. EXTREMELY INEFFICIENT...

That means you not only put a lot of time into MAYBE selling a little bit of soap or other stuff, but there's something even worse, a lot worse.

See, direct selling, which is what these selling approaches take is very taxing work. Getting past the "no" answers to the "yes" answers just takes something out of a body, any body.
