Hi everyone! So I was talking to my mom and she mentioned that my crochet projects are so good for me. She suggests I turn it into a business. I have been trying but I want to know what are some great ways YOU’VE experienced to help grow your own businesses? My methods don’t seem good enough yet to catch people’s attention, but I’m not giving up! Crochet is my passion! How can I turn my dream into a thriving crochet business? Thanks

I don’t have a business, but etsy may be a good way to go? I sell some projects to my class for extra cash.

I hate selling online, and have found that my bread and butter is at vendor events, specifically farmers markets

Markets ang craft fairs. Usually they are fairly cheap.

branding is important. if you’re planning to make your grand debut at a market like i did, get some stickers with your business name or logo and print them on to tags where you write prices for your items. also get stickers or something with your business name/logo and it should turn out great. you can get a label maker and that should do just fine in terms of getting your name onto your packaging. i’m more of an in-person business and i basically only do markets so i’ve learned a thing or two. also get business cards and put your socials or online shops on there so people can follow you and see what markets you will be at, and maybe even be repeat customers. i watch a lot of yt vids of craft markets and how other crochet business owners package their stuff and present their business. crochetbygenna and refinedvibes are some of my favorite people to watch for those things :DDD

I just started my Etsy shop last month and I made my 20th sale before I put it on vacation mode (me n my family are sick) it’s allowed me to actually make sales online but vendor markets are great too
