Today we’d like to introduce you to Bridget Goodin.
Bridget, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My daughters and I started making bath bombs to sell at their school craft shows. We started attending other craft shows around town. Then I thought we should make soaps to offer with the bath bombs. I started out with melt & pour soap. Then one day I seen soap made from scratch online. That spiked my interest. After researching how to make soap. I gave cold process soap a try. My first loaf of cold process soap was Lavender. That was my first time using handmade cold process soap. I could not believe how soft my skin felt. So, I did more research to see why this handmade soap left my skin feeling so soft. What was different? I feel in love with the process. I offer a variety of soaps as well as other bath & body products.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
No. Finding places to vend was a challenge. Scaling the business without debt. Finding reliable suppliers. Navigating social media. Etc.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am known for making bath & body products. I specialize in the art of soap making. I most proud of the relationships that have been built.
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
That I like to write.
