You Love What You Create. Now Let’s Help You Build the Business Side. 💕
From Handmade to Paid was created for makers and creative women who love what they do but need a little help building the business behind their handmade products.
Whether you're just getting started or you're ready to grow your handmade business, you'll find simple, practical support to help you market what you make, reach more customers, and turn more of your creativity into sales.
And I understand that because I’ve been there. I’ve built a handmade business, sold at craft shows, worked to get my products into gift shops, and learned plenty of lessons along the way. I know there’s a big difference between knowing how to make something beautiful and knowing how to market it, price it, sell it, and grow a business around it.
That’s why I created From Handmade to Paid.
Today, I help makers and creative women build and grow their handmade businesses through practical business trainings, helpful resources, and private coaching.
No complicated business talk. No trying to do everything at once.
Just simple, practical strategies and real-world support to help you market your products, reach more customers, increase your sales, and build a handmade business that works for you.
Because your creativity may have started as a passion—but it can become so much more.
Struggling to Get Your Products Seen: You know you make something special, but getting your handmade products in front of the right customers can feel like the hard part
Overwhelmed by the Business Side: You love creating, but marketing, pricing, selling, and figuring out the business side can sometimes feel like a whole different world.
Not Sure What to Focus on Next: Should you work on social media? Do more craft shows? Sell online? Build an email list? Sometimes you just need help figuring out what actually makes sense for your handmade business.
Ready for More Consistent Sales: You don't want to just make a sale here and there. You want to learn how to market your products, reach more customers, and create more opportunities for sales.
Hey there! I’m Talena 💕
I’m a business strategy coach for makers and creative women who want to turn what they love creating into a handmade business they can grow.
I’ve been a maker and handmade business owner too, so I understand that creating the product can sometimes be the easy part. Figuring out how to market it, find customers, prepare for craft shows, price your products, and make more sales is where things can start to feel complicated.
That’s where I come in.
I help you simplify the business side with practical strategies you can actually use—so you can spend less time wondering what to do next and more time building a handmade business that works for you.
Personalized support for creative women ready to craft custom strategies that attract buyers and grow their handmade business.
