Explosive financing: crafting the perfect bath bomb pitch

Issue

Bath time is meant to be a relaxing and rejuvenating experience, but many people face the problem of not being able to find bath bombs that meet their specific needs and preferences. This is problematic because bath bombs aren’t just a luxury item — they can help relieve muscle tension, promote better sleep, and improve overall skin health.

Consider the story of Jane, a 35-year-old office worker who spends long hours sitting in a chair. After a long day, Jane can’t wait to soak in her bath and relieve her muscle tension. However, she struggles to find bath bombs that are tailored to her specific needs – bath bombs that will ease her muscle soreness and promote relaxation. The bath bombs available on the market are generic and often overwhelming for Jane’s taste. As a result, Jane does not get the desired effect she hopes from her baths.

Relevance of the issue

This issue is relevant because there is a growing need to use natural remedies for body pain and stress relief. People are becoming more invested in their self-care, and using bath products for relaxation is becoming more of a sought-after option. The demand for bath bombs has grown exponentially in recent years. In 2018 alone, the bath bomb market was estimated at 0 million worldwide. These statistics clearly indicate that there is a vast opportunity to meet unmet demand.

Current Solution

The current solution for this problem is quite limited. There are very few niche brands that cater to specific needs, but they are not easily accessible. A regular consumer may struggle to find these brands and may often feel overwhelmed by choices that are not suited to their needs.

Why does the problem exist?

The reason this problem exists is due to a lack of customization in the bath bomb industry. Bath bombs are typically marketed as luxury products for indulgent experiences, but there’s so much more to them than providing a luxurious experience. The problem is that the majority of products currently on the market do not meet the unique needs of each individual. Customers are unaware of the ingredients that go into making these bath bombs and often feel a sense of detachment from the brands they buy bath bombs from due to a lack of transparency.

Competition

As the bath bomb market continues to grow rapidly, we are entering a market that has already established players large and small. Our main competitors are Lush Works, Body Shops, and Bath & Body.

• Lush offers handmade products made from natural ingredients. They are known for their colorful and scented bath bombs and have a strong brand that resonates with eco-friendly consumers. However, their products are expensive and can only be purchased in-store or online, limiting accessibility to the general public.
• Body Shop also offers natural and cruelty-free products and has a loyal customer base. They have a wider range of products, such as skincare and makeup, and are an established international brand. However, their bath bomb offerings are limited and their prices are also relatively high.
• Bath & Body Works has a wide range of products, including bath bombs, scrubs and lotions, and is easily accessible in malls and online. They have brand recognition and a loyal customer base. However, their products often contain synthetic ingredients and their prices are on the low end, which can make them less appealing to customers looking for eco-friendly options.

We believe our niche approach of using all-natural, locally sourced ingredients sets us apart from our competition. We aim to appeal to health and environmentally conscious consumers who prioritize natural ingredients and sustainability. We also offer customizable options, allowing customers to create their own combination of scents and colors. In doing so, we aim to cater to a wider range of preferences, including those of customers who may not find what they are looking for in our competitors.

Our unique selling proposition is our commitment to sourcing eco-friendly ingredients that are gentle on the skin and the environment. We also offer free shipping on every order and use minimal packaging to reduce waste. By doing this, we hope to attract customers who are both looking for natural and locally sourced ingredients and who are aware of how they interact with the environment.

We recognize that our price may be higher than that of our competitors. However, we believe that our commitment to quality and environmentally friendly practices will appeal to customers willing to pay for a premium product. We are confident that with our differentiated approach, we can establish ourselves as a leader in the bath bomb market.

Our main competition in terms of customer theft would be those looking for cheaper alternatives, such as generic or synthetic bath bombs. However, we are confident that our commitment to all-natural ingredients and environmentally responsible practices will attract and retain customers who look beyond the price of our products alone.
