Oddly enough, we aren't advocating any one craft over another. In fact, the buying world is hungry for handmade, hand-crafted items. Of many, many different types. So, it matters not what you craft. It matters more that you craft you items to the best of your ability and get them in front of the buying world.
The Crafting for Profit series will address many aspects of the business of crafting. Some will involve how to store your crafted items once you make them. Others will involve how to photograph those items to their best light.
We will also spread the focus between selling crafts online and selling crafts via festivals, art fairs and booth space. Either way you want to sell, you will need to understand the business of selling. That will another topic covered in the series.
Since we are all about organizing, that will be a huge aspect interwoven throughout many of the articles. Keeping your tools, supplies and finished products organized is just one part. Keeping your records and information organized is another. But, let's not forget organizing your promotional material and activities. All of these will be part of the series.
Crafting for profit is a business. As such, it will need good business practices. Keep a watch on our series as we continue to help you make a business of your crafting. You asked and we are busy answering.
