So after many many years of testing, planning, some small selling to friends and family, changing my mind a few times, being in the Navy, multiple deployments and many other life events. I'm officially launching my business, Steel Valley Scents, this coming weekend. I only do melts so I'm really just focusing on my melt "tubs", 1 oz, and some claimshells. I'm currently testing lip balm so maybe down the line I'll add those. Also I'm looking at doing m&p soap in the future, I'm just researching it now and not sure of the market of m&p compared to HP and CP soap. Any advice would be appreciated. I have a business plan down and I know it'll take time to get things going. And I'm sure with my baby due in February I'll have to take some time off again but I feel like the time is right. I really want to thank everyone on this forum who have answered questions and just posted so much helpful information.
