Do you wish you could turn your crafting hobby into a full time business?
Do you want craft to provide you with a steady and reliable income?
Do you want those around you to take your crafting more seriously?
If your answer is yes to any of the above then read on...
in 2012 I was crafting purely as a hobby and I loved it. When friends and family stated asking for custom orders I opened up a Facebook and Etsy store for my painted ceramics. It was at this time that I realised the potential that this could be a profitable business.
I had to learn quickly. I had no "standard" marketing or business management qualifications so I had to learn everything the hard way. There were a few books on the subject but as these were written before the rise of social media, I found they were already fairly out of date.
In 2014 I discovered a group on Facebook called "craft, craft and more craft". This is a fantastic network of online crafters where projects can be shown, feedback given and craft questions answered.
I started seeing the same questions being asked over and over again. These were the same questions that I had be asking only a few years before. It made me realise that there are so many incredibly talented crafts people that needed straight forward business advice, without the usual jargon that comes with it.
I decided to start writing a blog to help those who wanted to take their crafting from just a hobby to being a profitable business.
Today we Craft was born.
Since then I have worked with industry professionals to write clear, concise articles on everything from Tax to copyright legislation. I have also helped several small craft businesses improve their reach and profitability through 1-2-1 coaching and consultancy.
