A book to get you started: The handmade marketplace



Whilst browsing waterstones I came across this book in the crafting section. I've found it useful.

It begins with Part 1: Getting to know yourself and your business. This part covers all you need to know about branding, pricing, setting goals. All you need to get started.

Part 2: Spreading the word - and images, is all about marketing, blogging, advertising and the crafting community. What you need to keep going.

Part 3: Getting down to selling, covers craft fairs, selling online and in shops as well as other options available to you.

It has advise from all sorts of designers and craft authors. It really is a good place to start and it has helped people start selling crafts. It doesn't matter if you just want to make money off a hobby or start up a full time crafting business this covers it all.
