Imelda this is so wonderful that you shared this! Finding it just now and you are so right about over saturation in going through etsy... also you don’t need to give us anything else to look at it’s a sit down talk 😊 side bullet points are great though! (Great set up)!
Thanks so much for this video! This is all great advice. I'm teaching my highschool students about different art careers and this was exactly the kind of information I needed.
Thank you for the video. I hope you are able to travel and sell that sounds exciting. Thank you for the info about marketing work that needs to go into selling.Have a fantastical week
yup it's all about "spin" and if you make something unique and it becomes popular - it will be copied and the market will be diluted for your craft....yes?
what are some tips you would give yourself if you were in a new potters shoes? for example: the marketing and business side of this full time profession?
Diana Figueroa Thankyou! Yes I think someone can learn ceramics and pottery alone at home, in an auto didactic way, but will need good tutorials and practice. Exactly like someone can learn to draw or to cook alone. It’ s just a skill like any other. With that said, I also have to say that someone needs an autodidactic personality, which means have confidence in themshelf that they can learn stuff alone. Good luck! 🦄
@@HeatAxe but how can you practice without the tools? Or maybe you bought a kiln and a pottery's wheel? i'd like to learn by myself but idk how to start
Hi Imelda I'm not a potterer but I'm a sculptor who learned much from potterers I had a bad experience with etcy , I was working so hard to develop my etsy shop ,respecting their rule carefully ,till when I started to draw attention and bringing some trafic and sales ,they suspended my account without any reason and definitely After some research I found that they're racists they don't want some countries to work with them and they kicking US out this way Thank you
So you want to be a potter? Oh take this marketing and business class then. After all the business classes take one class in pottery. Yeah i think that's the reality. If you cant sell it you store it somewhere. It makes me sad because we get a chance to be creative but the bulk of the work is figuring out what sells, what market and how to sell it then carrying and setting up pots.
