This week on the Jewellers Academy podcast, Anna Campbell is in conversation with Lynn Powell. Anna is the founder and tutor for Jewellery School Scotland, teaching sell-out jewellery workshops in Edinburgh. Lynn Powell is the founder of the Arienas Collective, a creative workshop hub in Edinburgh. The collective was set up to help local artists and makers make a living doing what they love. Anna teaches her workshops exclusively with the Arienas Collective and they regularly sell out months in advance. The Arienas Collective recently curated an exhibition called Love or Money, which explored how artists make money. As part of that exhibition to support artists and makers, they did a talk on selling out workshops. This was a popular talk and so they have brought it to the podcast. This is more of a masterclass than a podcast with so many great insights shared for anyone running creative workshops. A summary of their top 10 tips for selling out jewellery workshops: 1. Location is important - consider good transport links or ample parking 2. Beware of being in competition with yourself in one area. Pick a location to teach  3. Make sure your location is clear in your social media and on your website. People will Google for jewellery workshops + location and that helps you show up in the Google ranking  4. Teach something that you can't find very widely - a type/style of jewellery making or project  5. Have a choice of dates available but not too many, you can always add more 6.  Have an intermediate/next level courses available for those who want to do more 7. Offer gift vouchers and sell creative experiences 8. Try different things. What works really well one year may not the next year, and what didn't sell at all might suddenly start selling 9. Try listing on places that people look for craft workshops e.g. Craft Bento and Craft Courses 10. Keep going. It can take time for the reputation to build and for word of mouth to happen    Whether you're a jeweller, maker, or creative entrepreneur, this episode is packed with practical, proven advice. If you want to fill your classes and grow your teaching income with confidence and clarity, this episode is a must-listen.
