Product Description
Individual Liquid Filled Soaps, Soap-eeze, are single use soaps. Never touch a used bar of soap or the pump handle of liquid bottle again. Soap-eeze are germ free, mess free, easy, and convenient.

Soap-eeze are comprised of a thin breakable outer coating of hard soap, and an inner filling of soft soap. Just pick up a single use soap,(the size of a vitamin, or a gold fish cracker) apply slight pressure, water and begin washing. Perfect for any sink that is shared. Knowing that you will never have to share a bar of soap with anyone like the germ covered kids next door or hairy Uncle Bill.

For instance: you go to a friends house and enter the guest bathroom. The soap is covered with dirt and grime a few hairs and the soap dish has so much soap caked on it, you don't know how long its been there. With Soap-eeze you will always have a single use soap just for you. Never share or touch a used bar of soap again.

Soap-eeze will be manufactured in several shapes and sizes, from fun shapes for kids, to classy shapes and designs for the home user to initials and logos for companies use.

5. Never touch the germ covered pump handle on a liquid bottle of soap.
6. Bio-degradable packaging

Market Appeal
Our main targets will be the home user, the outdoor enthusiasts, the military, and the business industry. In every home there is a bathroom that is shared, or for guests. Soap-eeze will eliminate the waste of throwing out used bars of large soap or cleaning up after the leaking pump handle on a soap bottle. By making Soap-eeze in several shapes and sizes we can custom make our soaps to each company or the home user. For kids they can be made in small balls with a gum ball(soap) machine to dispense them. For Casinos we will make hearts, dice, spades, etc. The possibilities are endless in making the molds.

Competition
While most homes use the large hard bar of soap, they are great if they never need to be shared. Liquid Soap bottles drip and the pump handles carry germs. Fancy Decorative soaps look nice, but they are to large for a one time use and then you have the problem of putting the wet soap back into the soap dish with the other soaps. Do you throw it out or ruin the other soaps?

Extensions
Soap-eeze can also be made with a mixture of soap and water inside for outdoor use. They could also be filled with anti-bacterial soap or hand cleaner.

I have had positive feedback from many sources, but can't seem to get my foot into the office of a soap company or manufacturer. They seem to be a very closed knit society. I hoped that by being a member at ideanextstep.com that I would get a little exposure and maybe they could really help me take the next step..

Hoping soon we will all: Enjoy the single soap experience!
