Many hobbyists would love to earn a living selling the items they make
at home. Indeed, crafts are a huge business in the US: in
1999 alone, consumers spent over $2 billion dollars on home-made craft
items, ranging from copper tools to knitted baby booties.
Crafts are popular gifts for birthdays, holidays, anniversaries and housewarmings.
Opportunities are wide-open for talented entrepreneurs to earn
a good living as home-based craftsmen, yet the market is surprisingly
untapped in many areas (despite an abundance of creative talent). Sadly,
few artists take the initiative to turn their hobby into a lucrative home
business.
The author of this guide has been successfully self-employed in her own
home-based craft business for over twenty years. She started on
weekends and grew her business to include six product lines, several dozen
outlets and a satisfying full-time income. She believes that with
a good product line, a commitment to success and the right plan, anyone
can earn a good living in a one-person craft business.
This guide provides the author's blueprint for success. She discusses
the best ways to start a business and avoid the typical pitfalls.
She clearly explains how to assess your market, sell your products and
expand into challenging new areas. She offers a bird's eye view
of a fun business that combines a rare combination of creative, administrative
and managerial talent. This guide is indispensable for anyone who
would like to earn money from their crafts on either a part-time or full-time
basis.
