User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Old but Good
This book is a bit outdated (has nothing about internet marketing, for example), but it has good solid information. I enjoyed the references section. The author clearly knows the industry and enlightened me on many points. A very practical book.

5 Stars A must for crafters!!
This book is a great handbook for anyone who wants to turn their hobby/talent into a profitable business. Most helpful are the resource sections, that help the reader locate valuable contacts in the craft business. Published by Prima Publishing.

5 Stars A must for professional crafters
Ms. Landman explains all the aspects of selling your works in this book. Very detailed and simple to understand, she takes you through the process from beginning to growing that craft business. I don’t know where my business would be without her invaluable time-saving techniques. The positive voice she gives each area inspires you to get to work!
