On this episode, Ryan & Becca talk about how they have improved their sales over time at art shows. Everyone starts off at a place where sales are really tough to come by and we want to share some ideas that you can consider when preparing for your next show and beyond. It's a long process, so don't get discouraged when you have a bad sales day or wonder why someone else is selling so well and you aren't.

On this episode, Ryan & Becca talk about transitioning from the busy show season to the slower time of year during the winter. As makers, lots of us have to hustle during the winter months to pay bills after the holiday spending frenzy. For us, it's a time to relax a bit, restock inventory, look back at your year, and start thinking about your year ahead. Stick around to the end where we each commit to what we expect to sell for the remainder of 2019 (with actual numbers)! You don't want to miss this.

On this episode, Ryan & Becca discuss a question that came in through Instagram recently from a college student. She asks about how and when we decided to pursue ceramics to assist her in choosing between majoring in something she loves doing vs something that will make her money. Ryan has a full time job and is working to grow his pottery business on the side. Becca graduated with an art degree and has been working in the ceramics field in some way since graduating. Listen in on their outlook from experience and advice to this college student. They also have some insights about whether it's worth pursuing a Masters of Fine Arts near the end.
