    I placed my order, waited a month for the book to show up, and NOTHING. I contacted the “seller” and received NO response regarding the status of my order. I’m now trying to get my money back and have yet to see that either…. it’s been almost two months. I would NEVER order from this seller again.

    I found this to be a helpful book overall. I wish it had gone a little more in depth into some of the business aspects, but overall it did a good job of making me feel like creating a business from your craft was totally do-able and could be quite profitable…so it was good inspiration.

    This is a great book to help artists and crafters understand what is needed to launch their creativity into a full-fledged business. Everything is covered from copyrighting and trademarking to marketing to forming a business to branding and even office supplies. There is also a very thorough and helpful section on maneuvering trade shows, cold calling, and internet presence for the start-up business. I found in launching my own creative business that the best way to use this book was in chunks and chapters as I went along in the establishment of my business, rather than reading it start to finish. I used this as a reference guide more than anything. An added plus: The design of the book makes this a pleasure to read and the size of it makes it great to carry in a tote or backpack for on-the-go meetings.
