Craft Business Heroes





Last summer I was contacted by Alison McNicol author of several craft books and a craft entrepreneur herself. She wanted to interview me about my business; what I do and how I set it up with advice for others wanting to set up a craft/design/handmade business.
It sounded very interesting so I obliged by answering all the questions Alison sent. I found it quite an insightful experience as I actually got the chance to step back for a moment and realise what I've done and how I got here. I've been carried along by events and trade fairs and orders over the past few years I hadn't realised the momentum I'd achieved and certainly didn't realise that it could be helpful to others to hear how I set up, work and run the business day-to-day.
It's also really interesting to read how other people got to where they are today and their working practices and stories.
The resulting book 'Craft Business Heroes' is available from Amazon along with it's sister book
