How to start your own scrapbooking business – useful info by David Stuart
Starting Your Own ScrapBooking Business…
Many people are cashing in on the scrapbooking hobby by starting their own scrapbooking businesses. There are many ways to make money if you love scrapbooking. The appeal of starting a scrapbooking business is easy to see.
There are lots of ways out there to start a scrapbooking business. A common misunderstanding is that the only way is to open a store – online or high street. There are in fact a lot more ways than this! Here are seven other ways…
Paper piecing on Ebay
This is a highly profitable way to make money by using your scrapbooking expertise and using the global marketplace that is e-Bay to your advantage! What do I do? You create beautiful scrapbook pages that people can buy and use to put in their own photo’s! You can make a lot of money doing this as people will pay for things that make their life easier! It’s a great avenue for you to go down with your scrapbooking business. Take pictures of the pieces you want to sell – get them on Ebay and sell, sell, sell!
Direct sales consultant
First of all, you should sign up with a large home party company in order to get stock at discounted prices. Do some research first though or you may end up with a company whose products your not comfortable using or more importantly selling. Take into consideration the membership fees.
Scrapbook instructor
Now remember, you’ll have to be, or at least be able to pass yourself off as an expert before you consider this option! Showing others how they can turn their memories into beautiful arrangements is very lucrative, if done well! There are loads of people who would jump at the chance to learn scrapbooking!
Product designer
Ever wonder where a particular product came from? Chances are it was from a scrapbook enthusiast like yourself. If there’s an idea that you’ve had for a new gadget or gismo that you think would make life a lot easier, consider developing it. You could go to a large company with your idea, or start your own production of it.
Expert
Subscribe to some scrapbook magazines and when you feel that you’ve created an exceptional page, send an email picture of it! If it gets published then BANG your a scrapbooking expert! Just like that! Being published gives you unprecedented credibility.
Professional artist
How many people out there love the idea of scrapbooking but can’t and won’t be bothered to learn and indeed do it themselves? There is now a huge market for scrapbook designers.
Event organizer
Ever thought about organising a scrapbooking camp or scrapbooking weekend away trips? Themed vacations are a great way for enthusiasts to meet and share ideas! Scrapbook lovers would jump at this sort of thing!
