Spa Treasures

Welcome to my blog.  After nearly three years in business, I wanted to take my business to a different level and start blogging some of my soap and business adventures!  With this being said, I am the first to admit that I don't have any experience at this blogging thing, but heck, I didn't have any experience with making natural bath and body products either when I first started.


In 2012, I decided to switch web hosting sites so that I could better control the look and feel of my website as well as get the "hands on" help needed to move to the next level.  As a small business, it is sometimes hard to find the right fit when it comes to utilizing other companies.  Everyone says that are small business oriented but the prices and service levels are not exactly small business friendly.  My current service is Bizzy Mama Hosting and I absolutely love their service plans, customer service and their passion for helping their customers to better understand how to host a website.   If you are looking for a web hosting service, please check them out....you won't regret it.


Last year, I decided to change a few things and started printing and creating my labels in-house instead of using others.  One reason for this change was to cut down on the amount expenses associated with using an outside source and the other reason was to have more control over my branding.  When you are using other people's products, you are at their mercy for time and price.  By creating my own labels, I can create and test what works best for my business.  If I want to add new products or change the colors of the labels, I can do that for free now.....I love this!  As with any business, branding and marketing is extremely important and can some times be the small factor that can distinguish you from others.  


Oh well, enough for now, I will be attempting to post on my blog a few times a month and would love it if you would follow along on this adventure with me.
