The Party Crafter Podcast
The Party Crafter Podcast is for craft business owners who are done guessing and ready to build something real.
Hosted by Leslie and Mike Frederick, every episode tackles one problem that is keeping craft business owners from growing — pricing, capacity, digital products, AI tools, scaling income without burning out, and everything in between. No fluff. No theory. Just what actually works.
Leslie built The Party Crafter into a six-figure business from a basement studio while working a full-time job. She started in 2017 with zero social media following and grew through strategy, systems, and consistency. Now she and Mike bring those same real-world lessons directly to you every other Friday.
If you are making crafts and want to build a business that pays you what your work is worth, you are in the right place.
New episodes every other Friday. Subscribe so you never miss one.
