Ep 01: Should You Turn Your Craft Into a Business?
Episode one. I've spent 15 years building handmade businesses, from selling jewellery I made while bedridden during pregnancy, to Peony & Pine in John Lewis 18 months after launch. This podcast exists so you can learn what I learned, without going through everything I went through.
What We Cover
- Why a handmade business is a real retail business — not a hobby with a price tag attached
- The honest costs and rewards of selling your craft (the rewards win)
- All the hats you wear as a handmade business owner — and what managing them actually looks like
- Nic's story: 15 years of building, selling, and starting again
- What The Motivated Creative podcast is here to do
Work With Nic
Building a handmade business alone is the hardest way to do it. The Makers Business Society is a free community for handmade business owners, the place to ask questions, find people who get it, and keep moving forward.
