Have you thought about turning your hobby into a profitable small business? This podcast shows you how to do just that. Whether you want a side gig for some extra cash or to get out of your 9-5, the handmade products you make for fun can hold the key!
In each episode you'll hear steps and actions to take to start and grow a profitable business. It's created specifically for the handmade product business entrepreneur; a group I lovingly call Gifters, Bakers, Crafters, and Makers.
You're a fabulous unique creative person and I'm here to help you get on the right path to making your vision a reality. There's a lot out there about building a service based business, some about building a product business, but handmade is different. There are specific nuances to handmade that we cover here.
Have you thought about starting a business but not sure what the first steps should be and you're afraid to do it "wrong?"
Have you started your business but it's not progressing as you had envisioned?
Are you confused about Etsy, Amazon Handmade and Shopify platforms?
What about email marketing and Facebook or Instagram ads for attracting sales?
There is so much to know it can be overwhelming and confusing.

At the end of each episode, you'll walk away with new ideas, tools, or processes that you can apply immediately to get results. Decide on your business. Learn how to get started. Hear what others do to get customers and increase their sales.
