[@shandrasmiley3655]

All it took was for dad to say no and a dream was born, congratulations young lady. You took it and ran with it!

[@n23391]

He also told her MAKE YOUR OWN. The role of a dad! Powerful.

[@kams718]

[@trieucao2328]

hey ,if anyone else wants to learn about how to make spa products try Sarparder Spa Products Starter (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got excellent results with it.

[@Tonique227]

And if you wanna make a website to sell your products they have Bigcartel/Shopify/wix/squarespace etc but you can also make a domain from other sites

[@zondrawilson5921]

Go Zandra Go! I'm so proud of you!

[@kimberlymoore2031]

This family and young lady inspire me so much! I'm so proud of her!

[@tomisinthemuse]

november132 yes you can.. wth, there are so many skincare brands made in my home country and sold all over africa, stop lying😂

[@babymimi97]

@@november132 pick up a history book you ignorant fool. don't speak on what you clearly know nothing about.

[@allab0ut-fl0wers-74]

@@november132 Africa is quite a large continent hun. And there are lots and I mean LOTS of African owned brands started within Africa. Sure being in the US gives her an advantage but it's not only possible there.....

[@karebear78]

I want my own business. Good job baby girl!

[@micahyacosten]

VERY INSPIRING!!

[@cookiecook6552]

[@eatwritecry8448]

Who is the person that didn't like this?

[@cookiecook6552]

Obviously a hater

[@Kay2be2mr]

eat write cry probably people like me who are jealous AF because here I am at 30 regretting what my major in college was because now I hate my job and have no idea what to do with my life. Yet here this little girl is probably making more money a month than I ever will, so yeah.

[@aliciacharles2071]

Kay2be2mr then go out and find your purpose! Your 30 but that doesn't mean it's not to late use this as inspiration to find what your true passion is and pursue it !

[@joylynsmith9738]

Agreed

[@joylynsmith9738]

You can do whatever you want to achieve! Dont give up!

This is what happens when fathers are involved! The black community needs fathers!!

[@solostudio100]

I LOVE IT!!!

[@erilongvlogs5898]

so inspirational congrats zandra

[@nathaliemarty9646]

It’s so easy to make a business in America while in France you cannot do it cuz you have to go through dozens of steps to be able to create your own business

[@taniaarregi6689]

mais tellement vrai

[@natashagreen-chillaxedprod7769]

I’m 34 and I bought my first soy wax melt kit from the Aussie partner of Bramble berry called Aussie soap supplies and now 5 years later I own my own business making and selling the safest Candles and Melts in the world and I make 110% Natural Body Products. There is 1 Wax that not only can you use it in candles and Melts but you can use it in Body Products. I’m on Facebook and I put flyers out and hand business cards out plus I have Special all the time but there’s not much in the way of helping me to go full time and opening up like zanda here in Australia, iv been for business loans, iv got a degree in aromatherapy, iv got a diploma in marketing and business as we as a certificate in retail, but Australia hasn’t got the funds to help someone like me. I’m registered and legit, I have my own name and get the odd bid order but I want that close to everyday so I can set a trust fund for my kids so when I’m gone iv got something to leave them. I make Melt and Pour Soap by Stephenson Range that is SLS, SLES & WSLS free meaning no nasty lye and I don’t have to wait for my soaps to cure for 2wks, I can use them after around a hour from setting. I NEED MORE HELP HERE IN AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 PLEASE

[@joy5016]

Hi Natasha i am in the same situation in South Africa. It is frustrating when the support is not there. Which other places do you sell? What is your website?

[@christinalucas1002]

you both should sell on etsy, eBay, and possibly amazon

[@shatirabarry]

I so want to start a soap business, I have sleepless nights. Help please

[@rossanalopes3114]

Her mom is gorgeous though 😍😍 the hairrrr😍

[@nals1111]

Congrats baby girl ❤❤

[@adriennebulla2462]

God Bless Zandra and her business

[@n23391]

This goes to show the role of a parents can be vary important, Dad said no, make your own, Mom looked up the program, this is amazing. No wonder God hates abortion, its an attack on the family and purpose on every individual He created with a purpose.

[@robertbonds6680]

Right because abortion has something to do with someone running a successful business

[@Delightfullydee7]

Wow her dad was really like it’s all or nothing lol

[@classicbeast8732]

Thanks for this, am 15, trying to start my own skin care line but my mom is reluctant on it
