The Pin Tool Podcast | Pottery | Ceramics | Small Business
Due to high inflation, selling work may be a bit challenging. In this episode, I offer some tips on cutting cost and a few ideas on how you might generate revenue to survive the hard times. You may need to be brave and try new things. For me personally, I do not wish to raise prices, but I am looking for ways to cut costs in my process while still maintaining quality.
Hand mixing glazes from a base recipe, learning to single fire, moving towards giving classes, and diversifying selling platforms are some ways I discuss here to weather the storm.
How are you all doing in the currently economic downturn? Let me know at [email protected]
