Have you been thinking about getting your jewelry into stores but feel overwhelmed by wholesale, consignment, and inventory management? You’re not alone. 

In this episode of the Jewelry Business Academy Podcast, I sit down with jewelry designer Anna Froman for a hot seat session where we unpack the realities of wholesale and what store owners are really looking for.

We dive deep into red flags to watch for when working with stores, common mistakes handmade jewelry businesses make when wholesaling, and how to price your pieces so wholesale actually grows your revenue instead of draining your energy. I also share lessons I learned the hard way in my own jewelry business, and how to balance wholesale orders with direct-to-customer sales when your time is limited.
