Hi my name Dale of Dale's Handmade Soaps & More, I started my business in 2013 and it has been growing ever since. I am married to my lovely wife Christi for 42 years and have 3 married children and now 2 fun pups. My ideal customer would be someone who is interested in handmade from scratch, natural products not full of ingredients you can't pronounce, and is looking for skin products that are inexpensive and work well. I love the feedback from my customers and many of my products have come from suggestions or ideals they have brought to my attention.

I do not offer free shipping on a regular basis as I keep my prices low and so for me to offer free shipping on top of low prices I would go out of business. I do on occasion offer free shipping as part of a promotion.

Of my on-line sales a big portion comes from either referrals, or from people reading my reviews.

I think online stores like Amazon will dominate in the future but there still will be room for brick and mortar stores as some people still like to be able to touch, and feel, and smell what they purchase and especially in my line of work which is cosmetics or soaps and lotions and candles

For my business It cannot be just one single thing, you need to have multiple systems, so word-of-mouth is a huge contributor, also I promote on Facebook once a week I run weekly specials that I show on Monday morning and then I run occasional google advertisements.
