A newsletter list is one of the best assets you can have in your crochet business. But to start one you're going to need to buy a domain name to use with a business email platform like MailChimp or Mailerlite.

Why?

Because data protection means you have to and your list won't earn you a single penny if you don't.

Let's talk more about it in this episode of the Crochet Business School Podcast.

What's stopping you from showing up for your audience?

• Didn't wash your hair today?
• Don't have the perfect Instagram background?
• Don't have a fashionable wardrobe?
• Kids running around the house?

These “problems” actually make you more relatable to your audience and make you real - unlike those fake perfect Insta accounts that are all window dressing and no substance.

With all that fakeness, people are craving real, authentic content. 

Listen in to this week’s podcast as we explore how we can embrace our insecurities to make our crochet profits soar!

There have always been those who will attempt to scam businesses. But lately with the advent of AI, the scammers now have access to bots.

This problem is far more prevalent through social media - especially Meta Messenger than anywhere else.

I don't want to fear monger, but it's becoming rare to find a business owner who hasn't received one of these bot messages on either Facebook or Instagram - these bots just mass message every business account they can find.

Knowing that these bot based scam messages are going around and what tactics they are trying is the best form of defence.

In today's podcast episode I'm giving you a few simple tips to identify these scam messages and be sure they're not a genuine customer sales request, so that you can keep your crochet business safe and secure without having to fear that you're missing out on a genuine sale.

Am I showing my age with the title of this email, who has heard of that Beverly Knight song Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda?

Anyhows, Facebook groups are like that, you end up asking yourself:

• Should I have a group?
• Would I make proper use of a group?
• Could I run a group successfully so it pays the time it takes?

I've recently shut down my own Facebook group because I answered no to one of those questions (more about that in the Podcast). BUT, does that mean that YOU shouldn’t have a profitable Facebook group?

So is a Facebook group worth having?

In today's podcast, you’re going to learn the pros and cons of having a Facebook group and what that means for your Crochet Business, your profits, and your time.

Pricing Your Crochet feels like the most difficult part of your crochet business.

We hear people saying that crochet is too expensive, that you'll never sell anything at that price, and then there are your competitors who seem to charge peanuts but act like they're swimming in cash!?

Block it all out

Hard, I know. 

I've been where you are and it's so easy to end up in a pricing race to the bottom in order to get that next sale at any cost.

But you can't run a successful crochet business that way.

Eventually you'll price race yourself out of business.

So how do you set prices for your crochet AND actually get sales AND make a profit so that you can make a living from your crochet?

Listen in to today's podcast episode and I'll tell you what you need to take into consideration and how higher prices than your competitors is not your real problem
