Bramble Berry is tossing its hat into the ring with hopes of becoming the grateful recipient of a FedEx Small Business Grant. I know your next question – what would you use the grant money for?

VIRTUAL. SOAP. UNIVERSITY. You read that right. We’ve been listening to your requests for more soap making classes in more locations, but were stumped as to how to fulfill those wishes without cloning me. Thus, the concept of a virtual soap university was born! But, like the infomercial says, that’s not all! We’d like to take it one step further and use the platform to teach all things small business. There’s a need for free, practical, been-there, done-that business advice and experience sharing. In my dream university platform, we’d have virtual classrooms, pre-recorded and live talks and helpful forums and threaded conversations – all to help empower small business owners to reach that next level. Soap + Business sounds super dreamy and inspiring to me; I hope it does to you too. Psst: if it does, vote for us once a day here.

Would you like to be able to attend a soap making class without having to travel? Help Bramble Berry to make Soap University a reality by placing your vote here. It’s easy to vote if you have a Facebook account. No silly forms to sign up for. Just sign into Facebook and vote.  Voting is currently open and the deadline for votes is November 24th. Here’s the best part: you can vote once a day, every day until voting closes! Thank you for your support and confidence in us =)
