Running a handmade business doesn’t mean you have to be a starving artist. I know what you are going through. I was there in your shoes.

As a designer and creative entrepreneur, I was working longer and harder on my handmade business than at my 9-5 corporate job and was barely making a profit. I was investing a lot of time and money on craft shows, sometimes without making back the booth fee. Sales were trickling into my online store. But I lacked consistent sales!

There are many ways to starting and growing a handmade business.

While the exact path to a successful handmade business might vary, there are some specific steps that are necessary.
