5.0 out of 5 stars Not Just For Beginning Businesses!, December 19, 2000
By Tonya Caudle (Midlothian, VA USA) - See all my reviews
Ms. Brabec made this book very personable by featuring tips from various artists. I was also glad to see extensive coverage on building a business using the computer.

The best feature of this book is that it is written to be a used reference for anyone entering the craft business or already a veteran in the industry. My favorite chapters were Production Methods and Strategies as well as Keeping Everything in Perspective. I also enjoyed the section on writing a business plan and for the first time, I was able to complete one using her step by step guide.

If you are a beginning your first business in this field, this book is a must because it covers every aspect from the very beginnings of a business plan to pricing and shipping, finding work space, and organization and time management as well as pricing, packaging and design.

If you are an experienced business person in this field, this book is a must because it covers sharpening your marketing skills, communicating efficiently, and business management.

I found it very helpfull specially answering one of my biggest questions..do I have to stay in this only room of my house wich i am finding boooring? or can i move my mess to some other place like the kitchen table?? I can move my messes to any (or almost any)place in the house.. I also found out that I can hire people to sell my jewelry and i dont have to "PRETEND" to be a sales person wich I'm not..and how to price my merchandise(that I was doing well not over nor under pricing).
and on and on...
