Did you know a lot of small business owners who make their own products tend to leave out some important costs when pricing their items?
Let's try to list some of them...
🗨️ materials that end up wasted because of errors (because nobody is perfect 😅)
🗨️ damaged materials
🗨️ all the hours they put into learning and honing their craft (and some maybe invested time and money for a course 😊)
🗨️ the crazy long hours spent working on intricate designs – that includes dealing with body aches and losing sleep just to complete an order! 😵💫
🗨️ and don't forget the time they spend cleaning up their workspace (if they still have that energy 🫣)
I know the list doesn't end there, but my point is...
It would be awesome if people could be less critical and a bit more appreciative and understanding of these small business folks who are really doing their best to keep their businesses alive. 💗
Supporting small businesses can take many forms. Even a kind word can encourage someone to never give up on their dream 🥹
