Rhemaekuri:
Oga Mentor, i'v discoverd something of late that my liquid soap bcomes watery after some days of production. pls wat could be the cause sir?

Heyllo Ma'am, I think I have addressed such issue before somewhere here on this thread.

However, let me quickly talk about it again.
The first reason is, inaccurate usage of chemicals. For instance, excess use of thickener and less of other chemicals. Everything has to be balanced.

Second reason and most common is addition of excess water at the end of the entire production.
Some of us feel the soap is too thick and try to add water at the end of the entire production, now this is not bad but excess of it can affect the overall thickness in the end.

I once told us something about STPP, if you observe very well, your liquid soap tends to thicken up the moment you add the dissolved STPP but that thickness is called a "false thickness". It's more like an illusion......

Lastly, there's what we call stability in soap production. It's usually achieved with the help or use of stabilizers, I have explained that to some of us before.

Hopefully, if I have the grace I might throw more light on that later.

Generally, I think we need to do another exercise on soap production this time, in an advance level to address some of our challenges once and for all.

Thanks.

I have noticed how a lot of us are accumulating my ebooks, most of us already have my 3 ebooks and still asking for more.



Like seriously, I enjoy your patronage... Ah, I can't lie o, each time I get that alert I smile because my labor is not in vain, at least it takes care of my data.



But you all know something? My labor will be a total waste if you have all my ebooks and still can't boast of at least a product of your own in the market, it's a very big shame for me.



Please, unless you are accumulating the knowledge for personal use like to be producing for your personal or family use, don't waste your money buying my ebooks, I beg you.



As for those shameless bloggers and other pirates buying my ebooks, hehehe, just continue.........I have a code you'll never in your entire life decode. "What you don't know, you don't know."



Please, for my good people in the house, it's not my ebooks that make you money but the use of the ebooks.

It's better you learn from the free training here than wasting your precious money buying my ebooks and not make good use of them.



My ebooks are meant for people who truly want to go into production business, you have to check through the contents of each ebook and see if you really have interest in the products, not just buying because you feel like having all my ebooks.



On this note, I'm taking a break from writing an ebook, so stop asking for new ones. Go make use of those ones first and let me see the result.



If you combine all the ebooks together, you will discover we already have close to 30 items (products) treated, that's pretty good for anyone.





I appreciate you all.....

Strongbest.





Thanks.

honestpoju:
Hello, what about those people that have been trading without any of these, because I have seen some insecticides, germicides, etc. No nafdac no. But patronage has been good?

Yes Sir, you are very right about that. I have explained everything about that here before. The post was just in response to those who asked to know about NAFDAC Reg.


Thanks.

HOW TO STAY ON TOP OF YOUR GAME AS A PRODUCER

Knowing how to play your card well in production business matters a lot.

Trust me, if you know how to go about things no one will ever reject your product.

For instance, you go to a place to introduce your product only to be told they already have someone supplying them the same product, what do you do? Do you just back out and go home feeling rejected and depressed?

I tell you, this is one thing a lot of new producers can't stand. You feel like just giving it all up already, hahaha. Common!

Look at me here, no one does that to me except the product is never needed from anybody.

So, what do you do in that case?

Here's my formula and it never fails:
Let's say the product in question is toilet wash, o really, you already have someone supplying you? K, can I see a sample of the product please.

The product is most definitely going to be the regular toilet wash, I know that in my head already.

Well, I will tell you my product is totally different what they already have, mine is antibacterial (disinfectant) toilet wash. That's like two in one and goes for the same price you are buying the regular one that has just one function.

Hand you a sample then the rest is history......

Idea, it's just all about idea.

Bed calling.

Meanwhile, have treated some of our mails.....please forgive me if I haven't responded to yours, later today I shall do that.

Thanks.

SURElee:
Strongbest can I pls have a number or bbm pin through which I can reach you? For what you're into your contact details should be online as well.
Thank you.

I actually do have my contacts on our official thread right here: www.nairaland.com/1798724/


Please check it out.

Hmmmm, someday we'll all be a memory, so do your best to be a good one.


I remember locking around his compound with my cousins, stretching our necks to view his lovely birds, always making funny noise........
Every event at Ahmodu Bello art theater was always an opportunity to play around his big compound. How time flies.

Wish him quick recovery.

[quote author=Strongbest post=42537069]Any detergent can wash your car, yes!! but what about maintaining the color of your car? Stop destroying your car paint by using anyhow detergent, learn to produce your own car wash that maintains your paint and keep it shinny.

If you want to start up a business in this line, hit me up and let's talk, ok.






My ebook on car wash formula still on sale. Get yours at a token and thank me later.

You all know I'm a very lazy writer with lots of lazy grammars, lolss.

I would rather you have me do a thing than write about it.

That's why I will not play with anything I struggle to put down in writing because I know the energy it takes me to do so.

I will try and be making some suggestion and as well be dropping some tips, I believe anyone who's smart enough will be able to grab one or two things from every jargon I put here.

Thanks.

4. Branding: I have heard a lot of us complain about the market being saturated with lots of people, I mean the liquid soap.

Trust me, it's all about branding. I always tell people if I have 10 people next door doing the same thing I'm doing, people will still be queuing for my product.

Creativity is business, if you can't think outside the box, business will be so slow and boring.

Just a little touch and colour can make whole lot of difference.

Take for instance, the common hair shampoo we have here in Nigeria is the liquid type. But is that all there is to hair shampoo?

First, you must understand what a product stands for, it uses and the rest. Then you will know that it can come in different shape, form and colour.
Someone should please think!!!!!!

CARVING A NICHE FOR YOUR SELF

I just want to take this little time out to help or push us a little out of our comfort zone.

One thing I have noticed is that a lot of us want to go into production business without a proper plan on how to have an edge over other producers already in the business.

Let me be very honest with us, it's very easy to make it big in production business but with a proper knowledge and marketing strategies.

If your reason for going into production is to make profit then, you have to consider the following:

1. Quality of product: this is my hook, the reason I can't loose a customer easily. Quality is what keeps your customers coming over and over again. Don't ever invest your dime in a production business if you are not sure of the quality of your product.

Remember, you are not the one to judge the quality of your products, the end users are the ones to make that judgment.

2. Who are your customers?
Now, this second question is the big deal. How do you go into a business without knowing who your customers are?
You have to create a customer base for your product, know who and where your supplies should go. As in, do you hope to be supplying in bulks to others who will now retail in return or direct supply to your end users?

For example, if your targeted customers are the Banks, Churches, Schools, Restaurants, Guests houses/ Hotels etc, these are direct users. You have a written plan on how to make them your customers.

If you intend supplying to super markets, Malls, Shops etc, you should also know how to go about it as you will be supplying in bulks to them.

3. Packaging: good packaging is an advert on its own. Trust me, a lot of people buy things for the first time not just for the quality but the good look, I mean good packaging. Mehn!! You've got to really get this aspect very right to differentiate your self from others.

.......................................................So sorry, have got to run right now. Will be back to continue later.


Thanks.

K, let's continue from where we stopped.


Thanks.

stadora:
oga strong, abeg, I jst noticed that my d quality of foam in my liquid soap decreases day by day, as in, it doesn't foam as much as b4 again, I didnt add formalin durin my production, could this b d cos. pls is there any remedy nw?
thanks

Oooops! Sorry about that.

Actually, foam tends to decrease with time due to certain factor.
In a situation whereby your surfactant is low and you have excess thickener in your product, decrease in foam is certainly inevitable.

WAY OUT: always increase the quantity of surfactant used to maintain form stability. Especially, when you are using a heavy thickener.

To your present product, the only thing I will suggest is that you try the following:

1. Dissolve some quantity of SLS in water,
2. Dissolve some STPP in water

3. Get a little Surphurnic acid and add texapon to it, stir to let everything mix properly together

3. Add the sulphurnic acid solution to your already made soap and stir properly

4. Add the dissolved STPP add stir very well.

5. Add the dissolved SLS and stir properly also.

Good luck Ma'am.

Thanks.

Hmmmm. And some Corps' members just passed out yesterday, that space won't even take the ones from a State alone.



While you are waiting, please get something doing. It's becoming more competitive.......



www.nairaland.com/1798724/

To those that paid for my ebooks today, o it's now yesterday (it's a new day already), I have just sent them to your inbox and I have also sent you a bonus (not a bribe o) for your patience.

I sincerely appreciate your patronage and I pray you make good use of the ebooks. God bless you all.


Thanks.

stadora:
k sir

Yes Ma.

Thanks.

No entrepreneurship, hmmmm.

www.nairaland.com/1798724/

Congrats to him. Some people and funny mentality though. Sometimes it's good to just keep your reasoning to your self.

www.nairaland.com/1798724/

Ok, think I know what to do. To all our newbies, whenever you want to produce anything feel free to post the product you are going to produce here and I will tell you the possible reaction to expect so you wont be scared or confused when you see it. Hope that will be fine.

Thanks.

Someday, we'll all understand that it's not all about certificate but what you have to offer.

www.nairaland.com/1798724/

Cheers.

I don't really know how these things work but I pray it ends in our favor at the long run. Amen.

Bukiminaj:
On Sunday

I scooped the foam out
Twas really good and foamy

During production I was confused and scared cos I couldn't identify the chemicals

I had more than 25 litres tho

Thank you so much Mr Strongbest and co

I have already package the soap in a 5 litres can. How much do you think I can sell it

Great Ma'am, really nice attempt. All thanks to God Ma.

I'm actually laughing here . . You really shouldnt have stressed your self scooping off the foam, you know the foam should settle or go off on its own. It will convert it self to something useful in the soap. Well, I understand your fear Ma.

Since you are just starting, I will advise you to sell each 5liters for 1k or even N900. It also depends on your location.

Thanks.

stadora:
Yes, mine later settled by d next day. d perfume I used made it special n people were like ""hmmmmmm, this is nice"".
thanks once more oga

Nice Ma'am, I'm glad you later got it right. All thanks to God. Bravo Ma.


Thanks.

Very disgusting.....what a national disgrace!

Bukiminaj:
Mine was too foamy also. I want to sell it. What can I do to resolve it

The foam will naturally go off on its own leaving a clear solution behind.

When did you produce it?

Thanks.

To those that I promised to get back to since on friday and I haven't, please accept my sincere apology. My internet connection has been acting really silly. Have to switch to my mobile phone for connection at the moment.

As soon as the issue is resolved I will do as promised.

Thanks.

stadora:
I made my liquid soap, it came out nice but too foamy, what could have been d cause, I Suspect my sls didn't dissolve wel. Could dat have been d case?
Meanwhile thanks a lot oga strongbest 4 ds knowledge. No more buyin of soap in d market. My next project wil b bar soap.
God bless u

Awww! That's great. As for the too foamy thing, O I thought everyone wants it that way, lol.

Well Ma, it usually looks like that especially at first attempt. The SLS not dissolved well couldn't really be the cause except if you over used it.


Thanks.

alakara:
am d one. I didn't get ur nos. pls my number is at my signature .

O thanks Sir, I shall get to you later today.
Thanks.

Bukiminaj:
That's the sample on the floor

Ma'am, Sir 4Gsmokei is right about the first one, it's texapon but the second one is assess rice.

It's also a foaming agent though.

Please, make sure you tell them to label everything at the chemical store before they pack them for you, next time.

Thanks.
