I’m Steph, a multi 6-figure handmade business owner (in the top 0.1% of all shops on Etsy), bestselling author of “How to be a handmade boss”, visionary and coach behind Handmade Bosses.
However, It wasn’t always rainbows and unicorns though. Today, my business(es) are bustling, but way back in 2014 when I started, it was HARD. Favourites but no sales, slow sales and low profits seemed in the beginning, like the trajectory of my business. Luckily following the system I’ve now curated, All of that changed and I went full-time in my handmade business in 2016.
Let’s focus on turning your passion into profit, because the world really does need these special creations that you only bring to life.

#50 - 'The perfect journey' for our HBSA Student Heather
đź’™ 'The perfect journey' for Heather and we want it to be for you too!
đź’¬ Steph chats with Heather, the creator of Arthur's Knitting Business, about knitting, teaching, and entrepreneurship.... Heather's business focuses on providing kits and educational resources to help people learn to knit.
🧶 She's on a mission to remove the misconception that knitting is too difficult by providing all the necessary tools, materials, and learning resources you need.
đź’Ş Heather's advice to new handmade business owners is to "just go for it, believe in yourself, do it" and believe in yourself. The worst that can happen is being wrong, which is only an opportunity to learn and improve.
