Wholesaling and Consigning your Handmade Arts and Crafts

Are you looking to sell through stores and boutiques, in addition or instead of craft shows and online market places, but don’t know where to start?

This course will simplify it for you. You don’t need a professional catalogue or even elaborate custom-made line sheets to get your foot in the door for wholesale or consignment clients, you just need to make a good impression through a well thought out presentation.

This course will break it down for you so you can get started getting your work into stores, boutiques and galleries.

What we’ll cover in this class

1. How to decide what to wholesale

2. How to create a simple catalogue

3. How to find businesses that may buy your work - Including a planner just for listing our businesses! 

4. The difference between consignment and wholesale

5. How to approach businesses over email, phone and in-person - Includes simple scripts YOU can customize! 

6. And how to follow up with your clients.

This class is for those who are already selling their work either online or through craft shows and want to expand their craft business.

We will go over simple scripts you can use when you are contacting businesses through email, over the phone and in person. This is great for the classic introvert artist who doesn’t know what to say to sell their work.

For materials and resources to create your catalogue and wholesale material use what is available to you without purchasing anything else. If you have Pages/Numbers or Microsoft Word/Excel this will work just as well as professional level programs.
