Woodworking Business Basics - Your First Sale! Now What? 

Agree with Tellez. These type of business videos for woodworking aren't out there as much as the 'make this thing that there's already a huge supply of' videos. Thanks, Justin!

It's 1:30 and I am still up bingeing your videos. I have spent the last 3 hours watching your videos, and every single one has been a banger. In the last 3 hours you have moved to my number 1 favorite woodworking RU-vidr.

Im so happy I found this channel, I am looking at starting a side hustle possibly with some small stuff just because i enjoy it so thank you for providing educational content thats normally not easy to find

Good luck Luke. I like how this video shows behind the scenes of starting a business just not your typical video that showing you items to sell to start your business. Hope to see more videos like this these tips will help me in my woodworking business for sure.

I met a guy who does laser engraving as a side hustle/hobby at a local holiday craft fair and have been bringing my work over to him to engrave my logo for $25 - $30 per job. Looking forward to adding a laser to my own shop when money dictates (and space).

Again, great video and I love the business aspect. A few thoughts: 1) Numerous metropolitan areas have Maker Spaces that are extremely inexpensive and grant access to tools and machines that a starting individual does not have 2) As with most production runs, a lot of the cost is in the setup and change over. Making 1 or 5 or 10 versus 500 isn’t that much of a difference ONCE you have all your tooling in place. It’s the change over that is the most expensive. Reflect that in your pricing and, if you have some space, think about offering warehousing. I’d much rather batch out a product and make extra on warehousing and than have to do a change over. I know this is small scale in this situation, but you want 10? Great. But after that 10, I can build you 10 more for the same cost or a 100 more for a discount of 40% per unit and stock the excess units for you for only 3% more per month. Just a couple thoughts. Thanks again for a great video.

Excellent line of videos....

I like these videos. I am in a similar situation that your friend is. I'm in the process of talking with a local micro brewery. They are looking to get a bunch of beer flights made.

Very helpful. Thank you!

good content Justin !

Great video.. I see in my area the a lot of people got into woodworking to get rich. They have watched videos from RU-vid and a lot of the influencers tell how easy it is to make money and what tools to purchase. Next thing you know, you are buying their tools from Market Place because it was so much work, no sales, and spent way to much money on tools that they did not need. Keep up the good work with the business side of woodworking!

Thanks Justin, a great practical look at the steps and things to think through as you get started! A great add on to the first business video and cool to see you helping luke🤙🏻 stay safe in the shop

This is another in a great series of shows. You are approaching woodworking shows with a little different take than most offer. I especially like your touching on the business considerations that many fail to mention. Keep up the good work!

Good content and follow-up practicum that everyone can use. - Chris

I really enjoy your videos I need all the advice I can get.

You are so good at this... you should grow quickly...... but please wear long trousers when doing sitting down shots... it was quite distracting wondering if you were wearing anything under that apron 😂😂

What is your thoughts on Amazon handmade?

That was not the voice I was expecting :) real cigar raspy voice
