Hi Marla,
I sent you two emails, I hope you got them. I would like to be put on the waiting list for the Advanced Cold Process Course.

Hi Marla,

I don't think you did. That seems to happen to me as well. Sometimes I get email alerts and other times I don't. I am not sure what the problem is. Thanks so much for responding. Hope to hear back from you when you have the opportunity to respond.

Kind regards,

Benita

Hi Marla,

My name is Benita and the name of my business is Embellished Bath and Body, LLC. It has not officially launched yet but even though it hasn't I have been approached by a spa and had a small loyal group of individuals that loved my products. I say was because "life" happened. I have been trying to get this business off the ground for about 2 yrs. now and I have been stalled for one reason or the other. Sometimes it has been finances and other times its been me. I do not have a tagline or a logo or a website as of yet. I have been brainstorming an researching for ever, spinning my wheels and getting no where fast. I do however have a niche and I am still excited about the business. I have been reading the posts from the group and know that I need to start working on my business plan among other things. In the meantime, I have some questions.

1. How do I conduct effective market research?
2. I want to eventually do this full-time as my main source of income. I know that takes time and lots of hard work but I want to work smart. How do I get myself on a realistic plan to leave the traditional day job?
3. I am having a beast of a time putting together a tagline or slogan. Any suggestions?

I would like to launch this year but need to put together an action plan. I will also be scheduling some one on one coaching with you real soon. I could use your expertise. Thank you so much for hosting this group and helping us out.

Thanks again,

Benita Russell
Embellished Bath and Body, LLC

Thank You Marla.
Nice to be a new friend of yours.
I am new to this site, but catching on. There is a wealth of knowledge here. I am working on upc labels. Any tips on these will be a great help. So many Co's offering the same thing that have huge price differences. Kind of confusing as who to choose.

Beautiful weather and lots of aloe vera. Do you think I can mix both young and not so young in my marketing?

I am especially interested in spa quality skincare products. soaps, lotins. OH why didn't I just say everything.

I will email you when I have my schedule figured out. My daughter is coming with me to help assist at Kripalu. We are planning to tour and stay in Boston for a few days.

Hi Marla,
Yes I am planning on flying into Boston. I would also like to meet you. Are you far from the airport?
