Awesome video idea!

I almost paid for a course at $600 to learn to launch. Omg I'm glad I didn't. Thank you Jerika for this information x

[@sweetwhispers4u]

I get so exited when I see you upload a video. You are my inspiration! I have a business that I have been trying to get off the ground and I'm so excited!!! I just have a little more to go. I just got the Bath Bomb machine in yesterday. I have watched your videos over and over and I always find new inspiration each time. I'm in Las Vegas NV and my business is called Panaché Lotion and I'm making a lotion and bath bomb that is going to be made just for you called (Inspiration). I think you are so kind doing what you do and helping the way you do. You and your husband are the absolute best! I wish you the best in all the world and the most successful business because you deserve to have a HUGE empire. I look forward to your next video :)

[@JerikaZimmerman]

You’re so sweet!!!!!! Good luck with your business! ❤️🥰

[@lovebugluv]

OMG! The fact that you talked about needing a professional camera when I just went out and bought mine today! It is like you confirmed I needed to do that now lol. Thank you!!

[@JBD4051]

Sold out! It must have been very limited. 😁 Thank you for all the help and inspiration.

[@kathytincler2446]

I would love to see a vid on how you set up photo shoots. I'm relatively new to your channel and so you might have done that already? Anyway enjoyed this epi....tfs

[@chovihanni523]

Thank you so much. I love how you personalize your videos as well. Letting us know what has and has not worked for you, and what to expect time wise and most importantly to not give up. Thanks again lovely lady. So glad to have found your channel. Have a great week!

[@Cosmonitten]

I have to say Jerika, I have watched.....well....WAY too many KZbin videos and you really capture me. I am a newer soap maker, and you are my "inspire to be like person". You are real, honest and give some really honest advise. So thank you for being you and sharing all your amazing content. And what you are saying about product photography is SPOT ON - Talking as a product photographer ;)

[@kathystanding6332]

You are a true inspiration . I’m just starting out and I watch all your videos . Great information your knowledge and enthusiasm just draws you in . Love your work 💕

[@vernahrris5601]

All of this is great advice. Thank you got taking the time to help others!!!

[@greenday1guitarfreak]

Jerika, I've said this before but I can't say it enough, THANK you for being so amazing and for sharing such great tips! That part about people stealing your product images makes me so angry but now I realise why watermarks are so important. Again, thanks for all of this. SO much love from India!

[@stefaniamorelli9919]

Jerika you are such an inspiration and I hope I will be as good as you are one day.

[@monicahains3198]

Thank you for the wonderful video. Much appreciated ❤

[@Pastry21]

Thank you so much for your tips and advice!! It's greatly appreciated. Just wondering if you could add subtitles/closed captioning to your videos to make it accessible for us deaf/hard of hearing people. Thank you!!

[@lab3789]

How exciting, go girl! Iwould love to get one, but can't do it this time, hope maybe next time would really like to try your wonderful products. They look so awesome.

[@natalielima6269]

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! I had been in the process of trying to gather my products together and your advice truly helps!

[@amberknight8555]

Thank you for the step by step launch hints

[@fallonelane4323]

This video came just in time. I’m launching an affirmation soap box with a handmade/ custom printed limited edition affirmation deck. Such good advice ! Thank you for this video as always.

Hello, im from the philippines. I almost watch all your vlogs. I'm so excited to start my own business. You motivate me. Thank you! ♥️

Thank you Jerika.Iam loving you and your products.I own a liquid detergent small business in Rwanda and Iam glad I found your channel,it’s helping a lot

[@jeneentodd9947]

Thank you for this video.

[@sandyborrero9993]

Jerika great idea. I clicked to buy the box and it's sold out. Bummer for me but congratulations.

[@nancykelly9712]

Great information Jerika! The one thing I'd advise is to invest in a photo box to take photos and don't be reliant on the time of day or bad lighting. You want to be able to work around your schedule and not the Sun's schedule! 😉

[@crystaldawn8875]

Thanks Jerika very sound advice! I too started doing bath n body magical boxes and i can barely keep up people are really diggin them but at first my boxes kinda sat around with sad faces..it took one subscriber to show her friends..im really inconsistent on my channel..def need to go the next level i just get so nervous making on camera ..a little nerve racking but practice is key! Thanks for doung This video!🛀🗝🎁

[@krisdavis8405]

Hi Jerika, Thank you for another great vid. Please do a video on and tools you use. I like to know want do you use to do your tube ?

[@abayomilerot4709]

Hi Jerika, thabk you so much for your advice. My little ladies and I always look forward to your videos. Keep up the great work. 🥰

[@tawankoonce7949]

Thank you so much. Your starting to be my fav. I follow you on You Tube. Thanks for all that you do. I tried the Whipped Sugar Scrub. Its wonderful. I will launch it for my small business

[@leyda9514]

Looking forward to the photo editing video! Thanks 😆

[@moonshadowessentialssoapsn5287]

That is awesome girl! I do use my iPhone for product pictures but ppl think I have an expensive camera. I have the lights for photo lighting and I have a professional app for editing that I pay for and I can adjust everything. It’s awesome. I actually haven’t gone live yet and done an instagram story. I should, I make videos of my stuff and set it to music but I haven’t gone live yet. Should I have everything to do it. It’s just weird for me to talk to no one lol I tried and I am so picky I didn’t like the way my voice sounded. So I woke my husband up at 2am cause that’s when I was doing it and asked him why he never told me I had a terrible voice! He laughed at me and said I was weird and went back to sleep. I was devastated so I called my best friend and asked her how we have been friends for 29 years and she never told me I had a horrible speaking voice. She laughed at me and told me I was weird and actually hung up on me and that was so rude! But those are the 2 reasons why I haven’t actually done this yet. But I will work on getting over it!

[@JerikaZimmerman]

the only way to get over it is to try and keep practicing! No one is a pro at first :)

[@allenaw19]

Thank you so much for all your input ❤

[@Haneen241]

Thank you very much for being so genuine and informative! I love your videos and I’m so glad I found your channel. All your products look amazing. Your work inspires me to keep working on my soap business

[@Leecreates]

I wish I knew about the box a couple days ago when I made my first ever order 😆 The donut bomb is so stinking cute!

[@Leecreates]

Oh! Never mind lol it’s sold out. I’ll be more on the ball next time. 😆

[@terricorbett1857]

Great job! Just curious what do you believe is the biggest contributor to your success? KZbin? Etsy? Other? Thanks for sharing.

[@ctatro518]

Such great information thank you! Not having the resources yet to purchase a camera at the level you use, is there something else you could suggest that maybe you started out with?

[@JerikaZimmerman]

Honestly, any DSLR camera is great! Check out the Canon EOS Rebel SL3. I've read really good reviews on it!

[@calvinfarrow1720]

I’m curious if you could answer a question. In your video where you disclosed how much you make. In the breakdown you mentioned the direct sales customers. I’m wondering if those are local event and farmers markets around your local geographic area. And what the population of your local area. Now the reason I asked this is because of what’s called the 1% rule. Which is that you can count on 1% of a given population in a given location to be your customer base. I’ve found this to be a pretty true statement from experience.

[@MyTeaConnection]

Love it 🍵

[@Urban_Off-Grid]

Where do you get your labels made, or what software do you use?

[@firdowskruger9896]

Thanks Jerika. Did you launch your website by yourself or did you hire an IT Specialist to do it for you?

[@misszindependent]

do you have suggestions for resources on video editing and tips? I have and old iphone so can't do fancy things.

[@sheilaserwaa2024]

Amazing information thank you

[@shantinaslife]

Which picture editing app do you use ?

[@diptimathur6811]

Very informative

[@nombispeaks]

Isn't it better to make per order? Especially if u are new new. I'm just worried I make things and then i dont sell all of them

[@JerikaZimmerman]

Make a very small amount. What you don't sell, either use or give away. CP Soap you have to make a month in advance in order to sell the best soap to your customer.
