There is so, so much that goes into having a successful online craft business.
Truly, the path is long, and can be hard, and has so very many steps.
However, I’ve been in the handmade business for a long time now, and over the last decade+ I’ve built up my businesses to the point where they support our family.
But here we are. I am lucky enough to be making a living making beautiful things – doing something I love.
I don’t say this to brag or toot my own horn, I say it to give you hope.
Not a false hope. Not a hollow – you will succeed if you just do what you love.
No.
But if you’ve dreamed of doing what I do – making a living from selling your craft, I’m here to tell you that it IS possible.
No, it’s not easy.
No, it’s not a quick process.
No, there’s no ACTUAL ‘secret formula’ to success (those what I’m going to share will REALLY help).
But it can be done. I, and many other artisans, are living proof.
Today, I thought I would dig deep into those years (and YEARS) of trial and error to share with you 10 things that I believe are absolutely crucial to the success or failure of your online handmade business.
