Selling Handmade Goods
If you have read my bio, you know that making things is a core function of who I am. As a result of this, I have often looked at what I am making and thought, "I wonder if I could sell this..." This thought has repeatedly been confirmed when I have made things for friends and they have suggested that I sell my handmade items. I am sure that I am not unique in this, so I have decided to share the resources that have helped me to start selling things. Please understand, however, that I do not consider myself an expert in business or finance, in fact I think quite the opposite, but, I will share with you some of the experts I have come across. Enjoy!
