You’ve made beautiful soap.
Now what?
You’ve nailed the formulas. Your bars are beautiful, skin-loving, and made with love.
But turning that into a business? That’s where most people freeze.
Maybe you’re feeling lost with the legal bits.
Or unsure how to price your bars so you actually make a profit.
Or overwhelmed trying to stand out online, figure out packaging, or elevate your sales.
You’re not alone and you’re definitely not too late.
It’s not your fault.
The soap biz is unkind to beginners.
Everyone tells you to “just start.”
But no one tells you how to stay legal, build a brand, or market without selling your soul.
There’s too much noise. Too many opinions. And not enough real answers.
I know this because I lived it.
I built Chalke Valley Soaps from the kitchen table, while raising kids, labelling by hand, and figuring out laws at 1am.
I nearly quit more than once. But I didn’t.
And now I’ve created the exact course I wish I had back then.
This is the full business roadmap, finally.
In this course, I’ll walk you through every single step to build your own successful soap brand.
Whether you’re just starting or ready to grow, this is your shortcut.
No more guessing. No more burnout.
You’ll learn how to:
✔️ Navigate UK & EU soap laws with ease
✔️ Get your products legally registered
✔️ Create beautiful packaging that sells
✔️ Build your brand identity & online presence
✔️ Manage supplies, stock, and batch tracking
✔️ Source branded accessories
✔️ Price your soaps for real profit
✔️ Grow a loyal, repeat customer base
✔️ Master both retail & wholesale selling
✔️ Market without burnout or sleazy tactics
✔️ Use AI to save hours and stay ahead
✔️ Stay ethical and sustainable as you scale
✔️ Know when (and how) to hire help
✔️ Avoid burnout, confusion, and costly mistakes
🎯 Who is this for?
✅ You’re ready to sell your soap legally and confidently
✅ You want a real business, not just a side hobby
✅ You’re overwhelmed by legal steps, branding, or where to begin
✅ You’re tired of piecing things together and want a proven system
✅ You want a business that feels aligned with your values, not stressful
❌ Not for you if…
🚫 You’re looking for soap-making tutorials (this course is all business & marketing)
🚫 You want fast cash without effort
🚫 You don’t want to build a real brand or do the work
🚫 You’re not ready to take full ownership of your dream
If I could do it, you can too
I’m not a big team. I started this alone. I’ve made every mistake, so you don’t have to. This course is the result of years of doing, fixing, learning, and building a soap brand that’s now helping others do the same faster, without the hard part.
✔️ Let me hand you the blueprint.
✔️ You bring your dream.
✔️ Together, we’ll make it happen.

Behind the shiny curtains.
How can this course help you?
As someone who built a product-based business entirely from scratch, I can confidently say this blueprint is the missing piece for so many soap makers trying to turn their passion into a real, thriving brand.
Maybe you don’t have the photography skills. Maybe you know nothing about graphic design. Maybe social media feels like a foreign language, or maybe you doubt your creativity altogether. That’s exactly why I made this. You don’t need to be an expert in any of it. I’m here to fix this and show you how to build a business that works beautifully, even without a creative background.

Business is in my blood and I'm here to help
Entrepreneurship was all around me growing up. My parents built and ran their own pub and b&b while operating several grocery stores at the same time. My mum was the powerhouse behind it all, the CEO, the organiser, the respected businesswoman everyone in the area looked up to. She worked day and night, led teams of employees, and kept everything running with sheer determination and grit.
I worked alongside her and soaked up every lesson. Business isn’t just something I learned; it’s in my blood. Even deeper than soap making itself.
Even though I had strong business instincts and plenty of creativity, I still struggled to figure out the new product-based world, building a soap business from scratch, navigating the endless legal must-dos, sourcing the right things that aligned with my ethos, and actually growing my brand into something successful without losing the joy.
Today, I’m in a place where I truly love what I do. But it wasn’t always like that. The struggle was real. And sadly, so many lovely makers give up just before the final, often hardest, push.
That’s exactly why I’m here, to guide you through it all and give you a clear, step-by-step path forward. No more second-guessing your business or your abilities. You can absolutely do this. I know what it takes and I'll help you get there.
