About the Book

Over the years at craft fairs and art shows, many people have approached me with questions about how to get started selling their own creative artistic creations. Since I have sold over two million dollars worth of my woodwork at 350 shows in 30 states, I thought I might be able to help.Here is everything you need to succeed with your handmade crafts. Includes the following: 1. A guide to selling your crafts directly to the public at craft fairs and art shows, selling wholesale to galleries and stores, and making sales on the internet. 2. 200 tips for finding and getting into craft shows, surviving them, and making money. Learn how to make your own display, anchor it, travel to shows by road or ir, take credit cards, prevent theft, make more sales, price your products, make your own web site, and do your own photography for web images and show application slides. 3. Complete addresses and ratings for the best 850 craft fairs and art shows in the United States. 4. 1,100 top craft galleries that are seeking new contemporary crafts to sell. 5. Contact information for everything from canopies and display cases to wholesale craft trade shows, product photographers, credit card terminals and craft fair guides. Includes addresses of over 100 show promoters who produce multiple shows around the country. 6. 14 spreadsheets and forms you can download and use with Microsoft Excel and Word, with instructions and examples for a craft pricing calculator, inventory tracker, mail list manager, business plan, invoice, show calendar, a form to organize your application deadlines, show expense and profit recorder, and legal agreements for consignment, sales representatives, and more. With all the craft fairs and galleries, you are guaranteed to find people who will appreciate and buy your craft work. If you supply the necessary irresistible handmade products and lots of self-discipline, you will be successful
About the Author: I have been a craft artist in a variety of media over the past thirty years, settling on wood turning exclusively since 1990. After graduating from San Francisco in 1975 with a major in Creative Arts Interdisciplinary, I made and sold fabricated and cast jewelry of my own design for 15 years in San Francisco. I have been writing spreadsheets and books for artists and craftspeople since 1988. I currently live in Sonoma County and drive or fly to shows around the country. I sell my woodwork wholesale to 20 stores, as well as on etsy and wholesalecrafts.com. I also maintain three ecommerce websites that I have designed.
