Has anyone else checked out the "Career Insights: Transitioning from Hobbyist to Professional" materials on ArtisanHive? I'm finding it realy helpful as I'm trying to figure out if I can actually make a go of selling my pottery full-time. It's daunting trying to price things correctly and understand the legal side of things.
Specifically, I appreciated the section on differentiating your hobbyist mindset from a professional one. It's easy to get caught up in just enjoying the craft,but running a business requires a different approach to time management,finances,and customer service. The advice on building a portfolio that highlights specific skills and catering to a target audience was also insightful.
I'm curious if others who are further along in this journey found similar resources helpful, or if there are other key things they wish they had known earlier on. Any advice or experiences to share?
