Master the business strategy behind launching a profitable handmade jewelry line
Calculating actual costs, scaling production without sacrificing quality, and finding sales channels that match your work. This hardcover guide moves systematically through business fundamentals, pricing formulas that account for materials and time, production methods for small-batch consistency, publicity strategies that reach your specific market.
Shapiro writes for makers transitioning from hobbyist to professional, covering decisions you'll actually confront: wholesale versus retail, craft shows versus galleries, when to invest in better tools. The 192 pages focus on actionable systems rather than inspirational generalities. You'll find frameworks for inventory management, approaches to photography that represent your pieces accurately, and methods for building relationships with stockists and customers.
Whether you're launching your first collection or refining an existing line, this book provides the operational knowledge that design school typically skips. It won't make business planning glamorous, but it will help you build a sustainable practice around the work you create.
