After attending the beginner’s soap making course, I was very much looking forward to attending the business compliance course. The course was fantastic; I learnt so much and had an opportunity to meet individuals who share similar aspirations of setting up their own business. I now know what to do to launch my soap making business and understand how to comply with the various requirements. This seemed so daunting before. Paula took us through the process, step by step. Paula was happy to share her knowledge, experience and support her students so that they can succeed. Thank you, Paula for your generosity and hospitality. A big thank you also to Rosa for lunch and refreshments. 😊

I went to Paula’s Business Compliance Course yesterday and I am truly thankful for everything she did for us. Starting a soap business can feel overwhelming with all the rules and regulations, legal documents to write and also about labelling and what packaging to use, everything needs to be thought through and done correctly. That’s where Paula was a great help in explaining the whole process, she even helped to clean up my logo! So now I feel very happy to use it when I am compliant to start selling. I highly recommend Paula’s courses, she has lots of experience and success in her own soap business, she answered all my questions so far! Thanks again Paula.

All the questions I had rolling around in my head were answered on this course. I’m super clear now what I need to do and where I need to go to kick start my business. Paula was so thorough and gave so many cool tips that left my mouth open in awe but also got me really excited about my venture. It’s also wonderful that I can still message to ask for help if I need after the course, which makes me me feel that I’m not alone in the process. Thanks Paula for all the feedback on recipes, ingredients etc. I cannot wait to show you the final product.

If you are serious about selling your soap you MUST go on Paula’s Compliance Course held in her cosy garden room. Every aspect is covered to make your business compliant, there are handouts to take home and no question is too simple to ask. Paula’s husband Paul produced a magnificent platter of delicious sandwiches at lunch time together with drinks all day. Even though Paula had been working all week & holding a Soapmaking course on the Saturday, she still gave M…. & me 2 extra hours on the Sunday which was very generous. All in all, a very enjoyable day, well worth travelling for & very good value for money (the cost is tax deductible) So, many thanks to Paul & Paula for giving up their family time for M…. & me.
