My side project turned full-time gig!

OMG, guys! I can't believe it's happening. I started making handmade soaps as a side hustle, and now I'm going FULL TIME. These aren't your average soaps—think quirky shapes, unexpected scents, and lots of glitters. Been grindin' at local fairs, and my Etsy blew up! Any advices on scaling and dealing with increased orders?

Awesome job on taking the leap! Consider batching orders, using shipping software to streamline postage, and maybe look into fulfillment services if your volume justifies it. Keep an eye on your profit margins as you scale and don't be afraid to raise prices if needed!

Unexpected scents n' glitter look cool, but what about skin sensitivity? What are u using for that bling-bling effect?

Glitter, huh? Cuz we all need to sparkle more. 😉 For real tho, try not to overcommit to huge orders until you're sure you can deliver on time. No one likes a late soap opera.

I'm so excited for you! For dealing with more orders, think about time-saving equipment like a cutter or a multi-bar mold. Keep your inventory organized. And oh! Quality control gets super important when you ramp up production, so don't skip that step!

Congrats on your success! Scaling can be challenging, but stay efficient. Invest in bulk raw materials, look into hiring help for packaging and shipping, maybe lease a workspace if you're outgrowing your home setup. Reach out to stores for shelf placement too!

Haha glitters in soap, thats one way to shine in the shower! Keep killin it at those fairs and maybe start lookin' into wholesaling to boutiques or collab with influencers to reach more peeps?
