In association with other organisations craftscotland is developing a series of factsheets to provide a range of business advice for makers in Scotland.

Pricing Your Work

Pricing your work correctly is a vital part of running a successful business.  Our craftscotland factsheet contains advice on establishing a cost for your work, creating pricing structures, deciding your terms and conditions, good customer relations, solving payment problems and useful contacts for more information.  Download the Pricing Your Work factsheet at the bottom of this page. 

Advice for Surviving a Selling Event

The advice in our factsheet on surviving a selling event comes from textile designer James Donald and sculptural willow weaver Lizzie Farey, who have sold their work at selling events in the UK and internationally.  Their advice for making the most of a selling event was presented at an event organised by the Crafts Council for exhibitors going to Origin: the London Craft Fair 2006.  It could equally apply to any selling event and provides useful tips for first time exhibitors and helpful reminders for the more experienced exhibitor.  Download the Surviving a Selling Event factsheet at the bottom of this page.
