CRAFT A STRONG BUSINESS
The 3 Stages That Turn a Craft Hobby Into a Real Business
📅 February 9th, 6 PM PST
If you make things with your hands and want your work to finally pay you, this live workshop will show you what's missing and what to fix next.
- Live workshop
- play included
- Limited seats
THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR YOU IF…
You love your craft but still feel stuck financially
You've sold a few things, but growth feels inconsistent
You're not sure what to make, who to sell to, or how to find buyers
You've invested time, tools, and effort but the business side feels unclear
You believe your craft could support you, but it hasn't yet
This is not about working harder.
It's about building something strong enough to last.
MOST CRAFT BUSINESSES DON'T FAIL BECAUSE OF TALENT.
They stall because the maker never learned how to:
01
Price correctly
02
Focus on the right products
03
Build demand before building more inventory
04
Move from "side money" to sustainable income
You don't need more hustle.
You need a clearer structure.
THE FRAMEWORK
THERE ARE ONLY THREE STAGES OF A CRAFT BUSINESS
1
You pay for your hobby
2
Your hobby pays for itself
3
Your hobby pays you
Most people are stuck between stages and don't know why.
In this workshop, Joe breaks down:
How to identify your current stage
What actually moves you to the next one
The mistakes that keep people spinning in place
Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
Your Instructor
Meet Joe Meling
Joe started his craft business in a borrowed garage.
Through leatherwork, he built:
A profitable online brand
A brick-and-mortar shop
A business that supports his family and team
He's helped other makers:
Replace second jobs with craft income
Turn side hustles into reliable businesses
Move from guessing to clarity
This workshop isn't theory.
It's the exact framework Joe used and now teaches.
