How do you market handmade products?
Currently I make soy Candles (absolutely delicious) and handmade beaded jewelry. I have developed a small following of dedicated clients through my job and I am interested in taking the next step into making my hobby a business. Any suggestions?
Look for local craft fairs or street fairs. These can be excellent events for selling unique, handmade products. You can call your local Chamber of Commerce to find out about events in your area.
Best wishes and good luck.
P.S. if you do these types of events, be sure to have business cards and flyers to handout for ‘follow-up’ sales.

Soy Coconut Shell Candle – White Wax $5 The beach bride’s secret weapon when it comes to favors they’ll truly love (not to mention setting a stylish table — or whipping up a last-minute gift)! These pure soy wax with cotton wick candles are poured into real coconut shells making them as green as they are clean-burning. Made from real coconut shells and sanded for a smooth finish the bottoms will sit easily for candle use. Our coconut shells are uniform looking but there will be slight variations between each shell as they are real. Each one is approximately 5 inches wide and 3 inches high. Sold individually and unscented. |
