Donovan Discovers was created by the young entrepreneur Donovan Smith at the age of 14. He is from Albuquerque, New Mexico where he started his business. His idea stemmed from his hardships in his childhood. He and his mother were homeless so with the profits from selling his product he always wants to give back to those in need. From making and selling his own soap he donates a portion to the homeless people in Albuquerque. From his incredible work he was shown on TV shows and more. A specific call from an interviewer he figured it was a local station, but it was actually Returning the Favor with Mike Rowe. They ended up creating Donovan’s store and gifting them a brand-new car. Donovan’s life greatly changed at this point. He used to just sell his products online but with this great gift he had his very own store. With having a store, he hopes to mentor those in need. He wants specifically to hire people that are from homeless shelters and those that are at-risk. By doing so, it will create a way for them to get back on their feet.

Jack Haldrup

In the world of soap, there really is not much variety, especially for men. 3 in 1 and 5 in 1 shampoos, all with the same three scents, men can find it hard at times to find a soap that works and smells good. That’s what Jack Haldrup thought when he created Dr. Squatch, a soap brand designed for men. He created the company to make organic bar soaps that smelt and felt good on the skin, and that did not smell like the soap men had been using their whole lives. With scents like pine tar, grapefruit IPA, goat’s milk and many others, Haldrup had created a brand that challenged the status quo of mens hygiene and sent it into oblivion. I have used Dr. Squatch products and am a fan of how the soap smells and feels, as they have bars that have differing levels of exfoliation for different types of skin. Haldrup saw this problem of soap and that no one was doing anything about it, and seized the opportunity and has never looked back. They have gone fully into catering to men, especially in how they brand and advertise their products, with most commercials being in the woods, with a man with a beard and long hair talking aggressively about soap. So while at times the company may seem like a joke, their products show that they obviously do care a lot about soap and serving the needs as it pertains to men’s hygiene.

Ten-year-old Amelia Milton, in Scotland, started the soap business Smelleez at quite a young age. She started it at seven as part of a school competition and then expanded it to where it is now, selling soaps across Scotland.

This young girl exhibits some of the key elements of entrepreneurship in her business. When asked why she was choosing soap, she said “because everyone needs it.” This exhibits the idea of finding a problem, people need to bathe, and creating a solution, giving them soap.

The company has begun expanding through contacts in a Perthshire company that helps new businesses to expand. They have also moved their facilities into an outbuilding as opposed to the kitchen of their home.
