In this comprehensive class, we will learn the ins and outs of selling your art, craft, design, or specialty online with maximum profits to you.
We will explore a variety of sales platforms and see how we can use them for our work. Each system has a series of benefits and drawbacks (most importantly, price.) Our way will ensure we get the most money possible into our account.
We will utilize some free (open source) software for putting together our complete e-commerce system in an intuitive, non-technically focused way.
We will walk through how to figure out your shipping costs, taxes, commission fees, and many other factors.
We will walk through the process of setting up downloadable items (digital products), like images, audio, and PDF files.
We will spend a good deal of time reviewing pricing. We will walk through how some people calculate the cost of their work, and I'll show you my formula for figuring out what I charge quickly and easily.
