Bowser's Bubbles | Application Preview
Bowser's Bubbles is seeking government grants to open a small storefront for selling handmade soap. The business faces challenges selling online, as customers prefer to smell the soap before making a purchase. Additionally, the high cost of materials, such as oils and lye, coupled with a lengthy four-week curing time for the soap, complicates the production process.
The business plan focuses on establishing a physical retail location to meet local demand for natural, homemade soaps, which are gentler on the skin compared to commercial options. With funding support, Bowser's Bubbles would enhance its product quality, improve its online presence, and create a welcoming shop environment.
Despite facing strong competition with appealing websites and branding, Bowser's Bubbles stands out through creativity, allowing customers to personalize their soap creations. As a veteran-owned business, it aims to leverage these unique qualities to capture market interest and drive profitability.

Funding Usage
I would like to open a small store front as it is hard to sell soap online because people like to smell the soap before purchasing. Also the cost of materials is not cheap, oils and lye mixture to make the soap is needed first while the soap has a 4 week cure time, there is a long wait time to turn the product around.

Business Plan
I would like to open a store front. There is a high demand for homemade soap in my area and this could be profitable. Natural soaps are better for your skin and are not as harsh on your skin as store bought soaps. If someone invested in my business i would be able to have a better product, website and onsite location.
