A majority of women who take up beading as a hobby end up selling their work - at home parties, craft fairs, fine galleries, or on eBay. The Complete Guide to Marketing and Selling Handmade Jewelry provides the practical advice and encouragement to do it right and do it with flair. First step: Match your design style and time commitment with the most appropriate target market. Second step: Learn the nitty-gritty of setting up a home-based business. Third step: Develop a distinctive "look" for brochures, ads, hang tags, show signage. Last but not least: Master the fine art of pricing for a profit.
