Nov 8th 2021
Have you ever wanted to start your own quilting business, but haven’t known where to begin? Or perhaps you already have a small side business that you’d love to grow—maybe even into a full-time job! In Quilting for Hire, Shelly Pagliai walks you through the ins and outs of starting and maintaining a business—whether you want to provide longarm quilting, custom quiltmaking, or both services (and more)!
In her funny yet authoritative tone, Shelly provides all the tools and tips you need to start your own business. She offers detailed step-by-step instructions on business start-up, like writing a business plan, setting up a studio, finding and working with customers, and creating a brand and website. Shelly also guides you through the logistical considerations such as insurance, money matters (contracts, taxes, and accounting—oh my!), shipping, marketing, and day-to-day operations and time management.
Practical, yes—but this is no boring business book! Designed for creatives, this attractive and interactive workbook-style guide is full of prompts, sample forms, and questions to keep you actively thinking and engaged about your vision for your business. Advice from several different quilting entrepreneurs, anecdotes from Shelly’s ranch and studio, and adorable retro-style illustrations make this business book not only informative, but also fun to read.
A feast for the eyes and the mind, Quilting for Hire gives you everything you need to turn your passion into your dream job!
