I make ceramic jewelry and always struggled with pricing it fairly, this course finally broke down the math in a way that made sense. The marketing section on photographing handmade items for a small online shop was especially useful. Within a month I had my first proper listing up and it actually sold.

Yıllardır el yapımı takılar üretiyorum ama internetten satmaya bir türlü cesaret edememiştim. Bu kurs sayesinde ürünlerimi nasıl doğru fiyatlandıracağımı, malzeme ve emek maliyetini hesaba katmayı öğrendim ki en çok zorlandığım konu buydu. Sosyal medyada hikaye anlatarak müşteriyle bağ kurma kısmı bana çok şey kattı; ilk siparişlerimi o yöntemle aldım diyebilirim. Ürün fotoğrafçılığı ve açıklama yazma bölümleri de pratik ve uygulanabilirdi. Hobimi gerçek bir gelir kaynağına çevirme yolunda tam ihtiyacım olan rehberdi, herkese gönül rahatlığıyla öneririm.

Llevo tiempo vendiendo piezas tejidas a mano solo entre conocidos y este curso me dio el empujón para llevarlo en serio. La parte sobre cómo calcular precios sin regalar mi trabajo fue justo lo que necesitaba. Ya abrí mi tienda online y las primeras ventas llegaron más rápido de lo que esperaba.

Saya sudah lama bikin kerajinan tangan tapi selalu bingung soal harga dan cara jualan online. Kursus ini menjelaskan cara menghitung harga jual dengan memperhitungkan bahan dan waktu kerja, bukan cuma tebak-tebakan. Bagian tentang foto produk juga sangat membantu karena selama ini foto saya kurang menarik pembeli. Beberapa contoh kasusnya memang lebih ke kerajinan dari luar negeri jadi harus disesuaikan sedikit dengan pasar lokal. Secara keseluruhan saya jadi lebih percaya diri membuka toko online untuk hasil kerajinan saya.

Sempre vendi minhas peças de crochê só para vizinhas, e nunca soube colocar preço sem me sentir mal cobrando. O curso me ajudou demais nessa parte de calcular o custo do material mais o meu tempo de trabalho, que eu simplesmente ignorava antes. Gostei muito também das dicas de fotografar os produtos com boa luz e escrever descrições que vendem. Senti falta de um pouco mais sobre frete e embalagem para envio, mas no geral saí com bem mais confiança para abrir minha lojinha online.

Wreszcie ktoś wytłumaczył krok po kroku jak wycenić ręcznie robione rzeczy, żeby nie tracić na własnej pracy.

El yapımı ürünlerimi yıllardır sadece pazar günleri satıyordum ama fiyatlandırmayı hep tahmini yapıyordum. Kurs, malzeme ve emek maliyetini hesaba katan basit bir formül veriyor, hemen uyguladım. Şimdi küçük bir online mağaza kurmayı da planlıyorum.

الطريقة اللي شرح فيها كيفية تسعير القطع اليدوية غيّرت نظرتي تمامًا لمشروعي الصغير.

Der Kurs zeigt sehr konkret, wie man handgemachte Produkte online verkauft, von der Preisgestaltung bis zur Beschreibung im Shop. Manche Beispiele drehen sich stark um Schmuck, ich hätte mir mehr zu Textilien gewünscht. Trotzdem habe ich meinen ersten eigenen Onlineshop nach dem Kurs aufgesetzt.
